Adding with Electricity

[event_details] Adding with Electricity is a four-hour hands-on deep dive exploration of the digital electronics that power our modern world. Starting from the basics of electricity and transistors, students are introduced to the binary number system and the logic gates that power all digital electronics. Along the way, you’ll learn how solderless breadboards actually work and use transistors and resistors to build logic gates from scratch. By the end of the session, each [...]

Intro to OpenSCAD

Instead of dragging and dropping shapes, you write scripts to build them. OpenSCAD is a Free/Open Source Software  (FOSS) application used to create solid 3D CAD objects and 2D intersections suitable for laser cutting via a script-based approach rather than interactive visual modeling with a mouse.  For this course we’ll write code [...]
