What Our Users Say

Breadboard circuit with spearker on green engineering mat

Awesome beginner course. I have prior electronics experience, but no Python programming. I am only half way through the course but I am leraning. It has allowed me to make changes in the programming of an allsky camera camera project. I have had a few questions along the way and received email responses to them with in 24 hours or sooner.

ROBERT W.

Beadboard circuit

The course is well thought out. Everything I need to complete the lessons and activities are included. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Anything you missed, you can always replay the videos and there is also a backup written lesson which comes in handy. I love this course, I will get more if they come up with other stuff.

CONRAD D.

Did a great job with the fundamentals of circuit components. Python presentation was very easy to follow. I'd recommend this course for beginners and experienced programmers alike.



FRANK K.

Breadboard circuit with OLED screen

The program was easy to follow. I obtained enough experience to continue on other projects.

RICHARD H.

Raspberry Pi circuit on grey engineering mat

I learn on my own time and repeat when necessary. 42 responds to questions quickly and I am really getting my money's worth .

ROBERT G.

Breadboard circuit with ultrasonic sensor

Excellent. Love the combination of written and video instructions, both of which are very clear.

Sample Lesson

RFID Reader Project

In Lesson B-11 you will learn to use an RFID reader in your projects. Once it's installed in your circuit, you will write the code to program the access cards and then you can tie access to other functions in a project such as keeping a data log or activating an alarm.

Sample Lesson

Raspberry Pi Camera Project

Gather real time data and write programs to react to it. Lesson C-12 will teach you to use a Raspberry Pi camera. In the robotics course, you'll later use those skills to install the camera on the robot and create decision making programs based on what the robot sees.

Install and Configure a Robot's Motors

Building a fully mobile and programmable robot means getting those motors installed and calibrated so the robots movements can be accurately controlled. In Lesson D-3 you'll work through installing the motors while building the robot chassis. Later in Lessons D-10 and D-11 you'll learn to work with a motor drive IC, draw on your pulse width modulation skills from a previous lesson, and write the code calibrate the motors.

Beginners Welcome

Not sure where to start on your own projects? Our courses were designed with beginners in mind.

Our courses start with the fundamentals to ensure you have a solid understanding of how every part of a circuit works, how to write each line of code, and how to use a Rapsberry Pi in your projects.

You'll then build on that knowledge systematically lesson-by-lesson to work with increasingly complex components, code, and projects.
