Popular Electronics Topics

We currently offer five different topics: LEDs, GPS / GNSS Systems, Distance Sensing, Engineering Essentials and Python! Let's take a quick look at each to see what they cover!


All About LEDs

All About LEDs - LEDs, or Light Emitting Diodes, are the single most common way to add light to your project. If you want something to glow, blink, flash, or otherwise add some light to your life, an LED is what you need! LEDs come in many different colors, packages, brightnesses and technologies. With so many options, you’ll have many things to consider as you plan your project and choose the best LED for your needs.


Building a GPS System

Building a GPS System - Thanks to the efforts of brilliant engineers and scientists, GPS (Global Positioning System) is a cornerstone technology in our world today. Whether it's from our vehicle's navigation system or a handheld device while hiking through the woods, we are now able to pinpoint our exact latitude and longitude from satellites orbiting the earth. Pretty crazy, right? Come along with us and learn what it is, how it works and how you can make your own GPS system.


Distance Sensing

Distance Sensing - Distance and proximity sensing allow you to easily detect the whereabouts of objects without physical contact. These types of sensors generally work by outputting a signal of some kind (e.g. laser, IR LED, ultrasonic waves, etc.), and then reading how it has changed on its return. That change may be in the intensity of the returned signal, the time it takes the signal to return, etc.


Engineering Essentials

Engineering Essentials - Electrical engineering is a technical discipline concerned with the study, design and application of electricity! Through electrical engineering, we can design devices and systems using electrical components such as resistors, capacitors and transistors. Electrical Engineers can design and work on items such as super low power microcontrollers, PCB Design, high power turbines, navigation systems and more.


Python

Python - Python is a programming language that lets you write code quickly and effectively. With a design philosophy that focuses on code readability, Python is easy to learn and use. Thanks to the advances in single board computers and powerful microcontrollers, Python can now be used to control hardware.


We have plenty more of these resource pages planned (servos are next!), and we can't wait for you to check them out!
