Arduino Jam
We'll kick things off with a simple fading LED using one of the example sketches for those who are first timers to Arduino.
I will have RGB LEDs for this with me, if you want to use one, they will be there for playing with.
If I gave you one last time, please try to bring it- at some point I will run out :)
Andreas M has a cool project, a PID coffee machine using Arduino. He'll be speaking about his project.
Got a project? Would be cool to get just one or two more of you with projects in any stage to inspire us. Let me know!
There is a Mad Science Fair on July 11th organized by Mid-Hudson Valley Linux User's Group.
Check out the link and contact them if you want to show off your project at the fair!
