Computer Science 243PC - Topic: 'Physical Computing Workshop'

Physical computing requires the design of systems that integrate hardware and software components. By exploring sensors, such as a photoresistor to detect ambient light or an ultrasonic distance sensor to detect objects, and reactive elements, such as LEDs or motors, students will learn core principles of underlying physical computing design. Hands-on labs and design projects will provide students with the opportunity to make their own prototypes, supported by the resources of the Fimbel Maker & Innovation Lab.
