How to change the intensity of an LED? We can switch a digital output on or off – there is no analog output but we still want to set the intensity (e.g. brightness of an LED or how strong a motor creates vibrations). The simple approach for this is to […]

Sketching with Hardware – More Building Blocks

The sketching with hardware course is the entry point to learning how to build functional interactive systems that do not conform to the usual form factor! The teaching approach is “hands-on” and we start with doing and then later discuss why it is working and what we need to know […]

Sketching with Hardware – Basics

What is a sketch? We started off with asking everyone to draw a sketch of one of the following things in 60 seconds: taxi, bike, cow, or door. It was apparent good sketches focus on the key essensentials. We adapated the Merriam-Webster definition of a sketch to a hardware sketch. […]
