Homes are becoming more intelligent, from electric smart meters, to the light bulbs that can be controlled from your phone. As part of this event we will be looking at a selection of sensors, in order to design, build and program a simulated smart home.

This workshop is aimed at people with some programming experience (beginners to intermediate level), who are interested in applying it to hardware and robotics. As part of the workshop, we will be using the ‘TinkerCAD Circuits’ online simulation to build and program our smart-home.

Arduino C will be the programming language used during this session.

This workshop will be run by Tomos Fearn, a robotics PhD student from the Intelligent Robotics Research group at Aberystwyth University.
