Campamento STEM para jóvenes ingenieros (tecnología, robótica y programación)

Class 1: Micro-controllers
In this class we will learn about the Arduino Microcontroller & how this controller acts like a brain. We will write a program that will allow our microcontroller to "talk" to components connected to it. We will also get familiar with the TinkerCAD online workspace

Class 2: Servo Motors
We will discover motors. We will take a look into different types of motors such as dc motors, stepper motors, and servo motors. We will write a small Arduino program that will control a servo motor. 

Class 3: Motion Sensors 
In this class we will learn and work with a motion/proximity sensor that allows an object to sense the world around it. This sensor is used to detect if a person is near or far or if they are moving near or moving farther away. We will explore the science concept of the dopplar effect and how this sensor uses the dopplar effect to "see" objects that are near or far. We will write a small Arduino program that will respond to our motion sensor

Class 4: 
We will combine two pre-written programs into a final program that will control the opening or closing of a box based on a person's motion

Class5:
We will put all the pieces together to complete the final project. Students will build their box in this final class.
