Foreword to the Sketching With Hardware wiki
TODO - basically what we had in the first live session
Video Tutorials
Tasks and Requirements
The course includes several tasks. First, there is a self-paced preparation phase with individual tasks. Then there is a group task to explore how connecting devices in different locations over the internet works. And finally, there is the group project. This is the main thing - you should make a fun hardaware sketch!
- Individual tasks and group assignement in the preparation phase
- Group Project SoSe2020

Last News:
We are currently on the Preparation phase (self-paced), get your SWH kit ready and follow the Individual Tasks (6). We will answer your questions in the discord server (links below).
The page describing the LED is now setup as example
The first tutorial pages are up: Tutorial Basics and Tutorial Digital IO
Enjoy.
Your SWH Team.

Sketching with HW – SoSe2020
Leaning Goals:
- Sketch with programmable Hardware
- Build basic circuits connected to the microcontroller
- Output: LEDs, Servos, Motors, Speakers, Display
- Input: buttons, Dials, Light sensitive resistors, accelerometer, distance, I2C sensors
- Program and Debug MicroPython on ESP32
- Input, Output
- Networking
- Envision a new interactive physical object and implement a functional prototype
Topic of this terms course: Connected objects
Examples:
- A toy for an animal connected to a representation of it on the owners desk
- The fridge door in the shared flat connected to a bracelet
- Two chairs connected to each other representing the others usage
Requirements:
- At least two connected physical objects (can be more)
- At least one object has to have 2 or more sensors
- At least one object has to have 2 or more actuators
- Object can be different (e.g. dog toy and ball on the users table) or symmetric (e.g. two chairs)
- One sensors has to be “invented”
- The object need to communicate over the internet

Kick-off Meeting
27.7.2020 at 17:00 (90 Minutes, Zoom) – life online event
- Introduction of the topic and format
- Showing examples of the hardware and tools
- Talking about resources
- Introducing participants and teachers
- Building of groups of 3 or 4 students – groups will work remotely
- Kits can be picked up (or shipped) to students individually.
Preparation phase (self-paced)
10.8. to 28.8.2020
The is a detailed description of the tasks and requiements at: Tasks SoSe2020
There are different video Tutorials available, e.g.
We will have a Discord Server were you can log in when you are working on your project. This way you can talk to the other students and help each other out and chat. On workdays, there will be at least one knowledgeable person in the virtual lab so you can get help.
Intermediate Meeting
(90 Minutes, Zoom), 31.08.2020 at 5pm - live online event
All group project proposals are presented (if you cannot make this date, you may submit a video recording of your idea)
See Tasks SoSe2020 and Group Project SoSe2020 for details and requirements.
