About This Class

8571ab34

Arduino’s are a family of inexpensive single-board computers that allow you to create just about anything you can dream of with minimal technical skills.

This class will teach you to build your first Arduino project, a fun device that plays a tune and flashes colored LED lights. You can design it to play your national anthem while flashing your country's colors or get creative and make a unique tribute to your favorite sports team!

Don't worry if you've never worked with electronics or programed before, it's not a prerequisite. Just come prepared to learn something new and have some fun!

Bill Jamshedji

DroneBot Workshop

Hi - I'm Bill Jamshedji and I've been addicted to technology for nearly 50 years. Started building radios when I was 7, hand-wired my first computer in the mid 1970's and have been on the Internet since 1987.

I have always enjoyed creating things and these days I spend a lot of time building robots, quadcopters and devices for the Internet of Things. You can follow my adventures and see my tutorials on DroneBot Workshop and on my YouTube Channel.

I love learning and I especially love sharing my knowledge. Through my many careers (and I have had many) I've taught writers to use the Internet, website owners to do SEO and children to build solar-powered toys.

When I'm not immersed in technology I enjoy cooking and both listening to and creating music.
