About this title

Synopsis

This long-awaited second edition of the best-selling Arduino Workshop (over 35,000 copies sold) goes beyond making simple projects to teach beginners how to use the Arduino, in-depth. Arduino Workshop is loved by readers because it focuses on learning how the board works rather than simply making a series of canned projects. All code is explained with the goal of taking readers to the point where they can invent their own projects rather than simply build existing ones. The book's 65+ hands-on projects reinforce the learning, increasing in complexity and sophistication as the book progresses. Readers apply their knowledge to build projects like a digital thermometer, a GPS logger that records travel data, a keypad-controlled lock that requires a secret code to open, and a motorized remotely controlled tank with collision detection to keep it from crashing. This second edition has been updated to cover updates to the Arduino software and hardware and diagrams and photos to make sure that the discussion and explanations are always clear.
