Embedded Systems Workshop 01

BuildX HUE's first Embedded Systems workshop: from what an embedded system is to driving a motor with Arduino code.

What we covered: • Introduction to embedded systems. • Meet the board — Arduino Uno: digital pins D0–D13 (ON/OFF), analog inputs A0–A5 (readings 0–1023), 5V and GND to power your parts, and USB to upload code and power the board. • Your kit, and two rules: the LED's long leg (+) goes to the pin, and always a 220 Ω resistor with an LED — plus how to read the resistor colour code. • Driving a motor: forward, stop and backward from Arduino code.
