As part of the BEng Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Project 4 course at University of Edinburgh, School of Engineering, this website summarizes a requested project: creating an Arduino Edukit for Mechanical Engineers. A deeper introduction about fundamentals of this project is available at the About page.
Aim
The aim of this project is to build an educational kit containing a set of training tools for teaching mechanical engineers how to quickly use and learn an Arduino in order to apply this knowledge in their future mechanical projects.
Objectives
The objectives are described in the following pictures that represent each individual project:
- Switch ON/OFF an LED.
- Create a dimmer.
- Reading a basic temperature sensor.
- Driving 1 or 2 DC motor(s).
- Driving 1 stepper motor.
- Reading a complex sensor.
