Spark Makerspaceis a nonprofit membership-based organization in downtown New London, Connecticut. Our mission: Supporting makers with the space, equipment, education, and community to create a spark in their creativity.Members contribute monthly dues to share Spark's Woodshop, Electronics and Technology Lab, Printshop, Fiber Arts Studio, and Stained Glass Studio

Spark Makerspace

Get started in electronics the easy way! Arduino is an open source embedded hardware/software platform that's driving the next industrial revolution (3D printing) and the Internet of Things. With a huge hobbyist community available for educational materials and support, Arduino is a fantastic place to start hacking projects together.
This class will teach you how to use an Arduino to read and understand inputs like buttons, knobs, and other sensors, and then to control outputs like LEDs, switches, and servos (motors like those in RC planes or cars). Through all of this, you'll learn the Arduino programming language and development environment.
Please bring a laptop if you have one or let us know if you need to use one of our machines.
This class includes an Arduino starter kit and instructional booklet for you to take home. The Arduino starter kit includes fun things like:
1 x Arduino compatible UNO R3 development board 1 x USB cable 1 x Prototype extension board 1 x Mini breadboard 1 x 5V stepper motor 1 x 2003 stepper motor driver board 10 x Red LED 10 x Green LED 10 x Blue LED 2 x Vibration Sensor 1 x Flame sensor 1 x LM35 temperature sensor 1 x Infrared receiver 3 x Photoresistor 4 x Key cap 4 x Key switch 1 x Adjustable potentiometer 1 x Passive buzzer (piezo buzzer) 1 x Active buzzer (tone generator) 1 x Jumper cap 1 x Large breadboard 1 x Remote Control 1 x 1602 Screen 1 x 9G servos 1 x Component box 1 x 10p DuPont line 30 x Breadboard line(approximately) 1 x 220ohm resistance 1 x 8*8 dot matrix 1 x One digit eight segment tube 1 x Four digit eight segment tube 1 x IC 74HC595 1 x Battery Holder 1 x 1K resistor plug
1 x 10K resistor plug
1 x 9V battery 1 x 2.54mm 40pin pin header
