Our Motto

Thanks for everything! It has been a great summer!

Last Week of Arduino, Part 2

This weekend we went to Worlds of Fun, and that was pretty good, but we've had that much fun or better in Arduino this summer. Here's the proof:

Harms checks for data.


Witte and his infernal machine.



Spenser Barr working on the water bottle runabout.

Last Week of Arduino, Part 1

We've come down to the last week of school. Class really zipped by this year. Here are few shots of recent work:

Spenser Barr's Water Bottle Runabout."


Witte and Sanchez posing with their infernal capacitance shockers.



Lewis Seeks inspiration.



Digging in on an animation program.

More More New Work!

Getting a lot done...

Two new cadets get into the swing of things.


The dreaded 555 Metronome circuit.



Witte tears in...




Cadet Barr contemplated a "D" cell for a project he is working on.

More New Work!

The cadets are hard at work on their various tasks.

Jamie is scavenging for parts on a circuit board. She was able to salvage about twenty capacitors and diodes off of the board.


Working on an animation in the Alice language.



Harms wires his Arduino board.




These two Cadets just caught a 1 farad capacitor. You should have seen the one that got away.

Second Half Session Begins!

We are proud to begin session 2 of the Wentworth Arduino Class! We have many new students we are delighted to welcome to the class. We are looking forward to some significant builds this second session.


The class.

Arduino to LCD Output

Today, the class worked on making the Arduino boards communicate. The boards were connected to an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) output and made to print out various short messages. As you see, we had some success with this experiment.


"Wentworth!" in big letters.


Cadet Peaden contemplated a capacitor.



The class at work. that is the wiring diagram for the Arduino/LCD interface projected on the wall.
