Arduino platform is an open-source electronic prototyping platform enabling users to create interactive electronic objects. In this course, a detailed background of all the electronics principles and operation of the electrical components for each project will first be discussed. The wiring of components and layout of the project will then be covered in the circuit diagram. Detailed step-by-step videos will show how you how to wire up and assemble the components for the project. The code will be uploaded to demo the project and how it works. A detailed line-by-line code review will describe how the software and hardware components play together.
The first few sections will get you up to speed on what the platform is and how to use it. Then in the intermediate projects’ sections, you will focus on making game-type projects using Arduino and even an infrared repeater that can allow you to copy, store, and playback any IR signal, just like your own universal remote. Next, in the advanced projects section, you will tackle projects such as an online weather station, a remote-controlled car that you can drive with a smartphone app, and a working phone that can make actual calls and send text messages, and more.
By the end of this course, you will be proficient and confident enough to use the Arduino board for building projects and solving real-world problems.

This course will be fascinating for those curious about Arduino and who want to explore it further. No previous electronics or programming knowledge is needed. All electronics and programming principles will be taught from scratch. An Arduino Start-Up Kit will be helpful (connecting wires, breadboard, resistors, push button switches); it will help you easily complete at least 80% of the course.
