This course uses the Arduino development environment to develop software and program the chipKIT development boards. There are 2 chipKIT development boards that are shown and used for demonstrations in this course, they are the uC32 and the Wi-FIRE development boards. Most chipKIT and Arduino development boards will work with this course.

Interfacing ChipKIT with External Sensors using Arduino IDE contains 18 projects that include:

• Serial Communication

• Potentiometer Reading

• Photoresistor Light Sensor

• TSL2561 Light Sensor

• PIR Sensor

• De-Bounce

• Tilt Switch

• Accelerometer

• 7 Segment Display

• RGB LED

• Infrared Communication

• Capacitive Touch Sensor

• Hall Effect Sensor

Course Structure

This course consists of lectures and projects, the lectures cover material that is required to understand in order to complete the project. All the projects include the completed code for each project so that you are able to load the code directly into your development board. For each project the software and hardware are explained thoroughly so that it's very clear how to setup and replicate the project. Prior to each project there is a series of lectures that explain various topics that pertain the the specific projects.
