Smart Home / City (Ages 8 - 16)​

Course Overview

This course uses mBot / micro:bit / Arduino with different sensors to create home appliance control, lighting control, indoor and outdoor remote control, timing control, etc. For example, build an auto lighting device which can detect human movement with infrared sensor, this automatic lighting system that is widely installed on stairs or toilets in daily life. This course helps students to understand the hardware and programming knowledge, and to design smart home / city products that can be used in real life.
