Build Anything™: Recycled Lighting
tl;dr We will build a portable headlight that uses recycled materials that can fight poverty in rural areas
The beloved course on building stuff is making a comeback, this year focused on less design and more build. This time, under the guise of recycling old materials!
In this course, we will doing a walkthrough of building a from scratch. We will go over:
1. Basics of how to design stuff and what makes good design, and possibly how to measure electrical signal
2. Testing a prototype on a breadboard
3. Designing and ordering a printed circuit board
4. Soldering and assembling our board
5. Programming software to run on a microcontroller
6. 3D printing a model and final assembly
(7.) (extra bonus free time session) – presenting work to others
This course is information heavy, and will be including a lot of new skills to learn. You will be encouraged to do some pre-reading, but it is not detrimental if you can’t. It requires no prior knowledge whatsoever.
This course is for you if:
1. you want to become an engineer
2. you want go into arts and be ahead of everyone else
3. want to learn how to actually build stuff this summer
Course is capped at 8 people. Early applications will be preferred.
Please note: in case that the original project will exceed the budget during preparation, or if we choose so in a vote, we might change the project to something else. In any case, you will be leaving the course with a physical object and the knowledge how to build it.
