Designer Amelie demonstrates how to connect a LED to an Arduino and make it flash and dim! You’ll learn the basics of programming and be prepared for your own experiments with physical computing. She’ll also explain what a “digital high” is and why one LED leg is longer than the other. All in extreme detail and size!
To get started, you'll need an Arduino Uno, the open source software IDE which can be download at arduino.cc/en/software, a breadboard, one LED (wired), two jumper cables and one resistor (approx. 220 Ohm).
