Program Description
Event Details
Ever wonder how drones can stay stable or how thermostats achieve the right temperature? Both of them have controls developed by engineers! In this project, we will learn the basics of controls using Arduino, sensors, and servo motors. Keeping the ball in the center of a beam is no easy feat.
This is an in-person workshop.
Kits are created by UC San Diego's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering student led organization, Project-In-A-Box.
No experience required!
A Middle School or High School student must be participating.
Limit 1 kit per household. Only 1 registration needed per household.
