Grasping Arduino Workshop
Two day workshop!

This 2 class workshop (1.5 hr per class) provides an introduction to programming in the Arduino language. After learning some of the programming basics in the Arduino language, participants will build a mechanical “gripper” hand using low-tech supplies (cardboard, straw, string) and then incorporate motors and sensors to get it to move. The overriding objective is to demonstrate a way to implement the Arduino microcontrollers for a robotics project.
