Workshop Session 31/07

The tutorial on Tuesday 31/07 was devoted to deconstructing devices that we had brought from home, and trying to scavenge components to use with the Arduino board. Our group teamed up with another in the workshop in order to share our understanding of the task and also our resources, as not all of us brought an object to work with.

Whilst we did not manage to make a complete interactive model combining the input/output parts we gathered from deconstruction phase of the exercise, we managed to gain a valuable insight into the types of parts commonly found in an interactive system. We plan to spend the time leading up to the next tutorial better familiarising ourselves with the Arduino board, and further testing the interactions we can make with it.
