6 | Untoolkit: Electronic Inputs
Week 6: 12th of March - 18th of March 2020
When we talk about "inputs" in electronics, what does it mean? How are inputs structured in such a way that they become readable by computers? This week we make the bridge between connecting materials (week 2), and translating their properties into digitally readable formats. What is the anatomy of a button anyway? And what is the difference between a "digital" and an "analog" input?
We will make our own buttons and sensors and you will learn how you can use a microcontroller as a probe to "read" what is happening in an electronics circuit. You will get familiarized with the Arduino IDE and a type of microcontroller board, you will use a breadboard, and you will learn (or refresh) how to get readings from input devices - even ones you make yourself!
