Latest News
We are currently on the Preparation phase (self-paced), get your SWH kit ready and follow the Individual Tasks. We will answer your questions in the discord server (links below).
Here are some recent changes:
- The page describing the LED is now setup as example
- Some tutorial pages are up: Tutorial Basics, Tutorial Digital IO, and Tutorial Analog IN
- There are pages with the Individual Tasks as well as for the Group Project SoSe2020
- There is a description of the Project Topic SoSe2020
Foreword to the Sketching With Hardware wiki
TODO - basically what we had in the first live session
Learning Goals
The overall learning goal is the equip students with skills to Envision a new interactive physical object and implements a functional prototype, this includes:
- understand why sketching with hardware is relevant
- understand the challenges in creating function prototypes
- being able to create basic hardware sketches
- being able to program and debug MicroPython on ESP32/ESP8266
- being able to build basic circuits connected to the microcontroller, including
- output: LEDs, servos, motors, speakers, display
- input: buttons, dials, sliders, LDR, accelerometer, distance, I2C sensors
- being able to program basic networking (network variables)

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

Topic of this terms course: Connected objects
This term we ask you to invent and physically sketch connected objects.
The project topic is described in more detail at: Project Topic SoSe2020
Timetable
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
31.08.2020 at 17:00, (90 Minutes, Zoom) - 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.
