If you can’t tell by now, we at Method love Arduino. So much, in fact, that this week some of the Method SF team journeyed to the California College of the Arts (CCA) to lead an Arduino workshop for industrial design students.
After giving an overview of Arduino, we shared a project we’ve been working on during our PLAY sessions, it uses a slider and Processing to make physical controllers for the arcade game Pong. Then we broke into groups to test the Arduino boards.
The students wrote their first program and soon had LED lights blinking and switches controlling the lights. A few adventurous students even worked on controlling tri-color RGB LEDs. The whole event was a fun and successful way to continue spreading the Arduino love!
