Are you ready to accept a challenge that will combine sensors, motors, programming and prototyping? The one-day workshop will kick off with an introduction to coding and the platform we are using. A specific challenge will be revealed for your team to complete. Sign up with friends or we can assign you to a team.

Use your creativity and our makerspace resources (laser, 3D printer, vinyl/print cut machine and lots of cardboard) to complete the challenge. Mentoring and technical assistance will be provided by CLC Engineering Interns.

Participation and the use of the Arduino kit and electronics are free, funded in part by a grant from Baxter International Foundation and the College of Lake County. Additional information is available by contacting CLC Engineering Department Co-Chair Jan Edwards at jedwards1@clcillinois.edu.
