New Technologies: Electronic Inventor Lab with AI Coding
About
What if you could invent the machine to feed your dog when it's hungry, or the clothing that lights up to the rhythms of your heart beat? In this hands-on course we'll use AI to do the coding while we focus on learning to use programmable microcontrollers (Arduinos) to interface with the physical world through sensors, animating LED displays, motors, and more. Moving from group projects to individual inventions, you will learn the principles and theory of practical electronics and circuit building, as well as best practices for creating AI generated code that can enable your creative power. Learn how to get your ideas and inventions out of your head and into existence. No experience is required. Basic electronics supplies are provided for the class, but there’s an additional material fee of $40. A paid subscription to an AI service such as ChatGPT or Gemini is recommended. This is a project-based class and consistent attendance is required, those who miss the first 2 classes or who are excessively late or absent may be dropped without refund.
