Highlights:
Welcome to the interactive electronic world!DFRobot proudly presents the Beginner/Starter Kit for those who are interested in learning about Arduino and electronics. Starting from basic LED control to more advanced environmental sensing, monitoring, and actuators, this kit will guide you through how to sense and control the physical world through sensors and microcontrollers compatible with Arduino via carefully designed project. Besides providing you with premium quality jumper wires, double resistors, plenty of LEDs, 9g servos, and IR remote transmitters and receivers, the 4 additional useful components have also been added: relay, motor, fan, and potentiometer.
HIGH-QUALITY ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS ENTRY-LEVEL EDUCATION
A DFRduino UNO R3 (Compatible with Arduino Uno R3) is compatible with Arduino IDE. Both the DFRduino and DFRobot's best selling prototype shield based on Arduino included in this kit.
Beginner Kit for Arduino has strict guidelines on how it makes packaging design, hardware selection, and circuit production technology, meaning that DFRobot can always provide you with quality assurance.
Curriculum or Lesson Topics:
Course Outline
There are 15 projects in the Arduino Getting Started tutorial to help you learn Adruino step by step from easy material to even the most difficult of concepts. The whole set of tutorials provides learning content for both the software and hardware systems. In the process of making interesting projects, you will not only learn programming knowledge such as variables and functions, but also understand the principles behind using electronic components such as light-emitting diodes, buzzers, and steering gears.
Course Structure
Each course will guide you through a quick implementation of the project, stimulate your interest in learning, and then delve into the knowledge of electronics and programming. So, the structure of this curriculum is broken down into the following: “materials list --> hardware connection --> code writing --> code review --> hardware review.”
Different from other tutorials, this tutorial systematically explains how to interpret Arduino code and how to understand the principles of electronic circuits in order to help you make creative Arduino programming projects.
Project Cards
The beginner kit for Arduino includes 15 project cards with detailed circuit diagrams. The students can choose any project they want to start creating what they are interested in. The kit effectively helps teachers launch workshops at school.
