Arduino Advanced

Go beyond blinking LEDs. Master sensors, motors, displays, and interrupts to build interactive hardware projects with Arduino.

Arduino is the gateway to physical computing. This course takes you from basic circuits to complex electromechanical systems. You will learn to interface with analog and digital sensors (Temperature, Distance, Light), control DC and Stepper motors using drivers, and display data on LCDs and OLEDs. We cover interrupts for real-time responsiveness and optimizing memory on limited-resource microcontrollers. Build robots, weather stations, and home automation prototypes.
