We're pleased to announce Luxsumi Jeevananthan's hardware workshop this upcoming Arduino Day! Lux and a team of mentors will introduce you to building prototypes with digital hardware and the software needed to interact with it. She writes,

"So you want to be a kickstarter rockstar? Everyone has to start somewhere; for hardware, that means starting off with an Arduino version of their project.

Do you know how to program, but don't even know where to start with the hardware? Well, never fear, because WiCS is here! On March 28th, we will be running a workshop on how to put together hardware components and program them with an Arduino! The cost of the workshop is just $25, the price of an Arduino, and you'll get to take whatever you've built home with you. We'll be teaching you how to program LEDs and other sensors with the board using an IDE so that you can get started on your very own project!"

Registration is very limited and first-come first-served, so sign up as soon as possible! You can register for the workshop and pay the $25 fee in the MathSoc Office, MC 3038. We'll be accepting registrations until Mon. March 23rd or until we sell out.
