This book differs from many others on Arduino in that it assumes no prior experience in programming or electronics. It doesn't go into great detail about those subjects; rather, it gives you just enough information to make things.
This book contains:
- Use lights to quickly learn basic programming concepts
- Make noise and music on a speaker
- Make a digital thermometer
- Add graphics to your thermometer to show a graph of recorded temperature
- Play with sensors to detect light, magnets, and knocking
- Make a rubber band gun that uses a joystick for panning, tilting, and firing
- Be encouraged to go create your own projects! There are exercises after each chapter (with sample solutions) to help you make sure you understand the concepts
