These days, computer science makes the world go round in most ways except literal. We're celebrating this amazing field by setting you up with different resources to hone your software skills!
If you're feeling nostalgic for SparkFun's Autonomous Vehicle Competition, we might have something that will help. When Tawn Kramer's friends competed in the AVC and he couldn't make it, he wrote a simulator so that he could feel like a part of the action. The best part? It's open source and you can use it too!

I know a guy who is a big "fan" of IoT, even though he's not all that technical. His "day job" is as a business attorney, so he can afford a…
That's true, the blue LEDs would ideally have a resistor closer to 4x than 2x when jumping from 3.3V to 5V. I don't remember my original…
Thanks for your reply! Your "roughly double" resistances for 5V vs 3.3V imply that the difference between LED drop and 3,3V is same as 3,3V…
Your right, that would be a great way to fine tune the current for LEDs! You're also correct that the goal of this project was finding the…
Hi there! For the sake of brevity, I didn't go into full detail about how exactly I calculated the 5V resistor values. But in short, I took…
Responding to your note about the highly non-linear relationship between the pot position and the current -- a way to address this would be…
Nice initiative Dryw! But there's something a bit off in the "5V resistor value" calculations, supposedly using Ohm's law. The forward…
