PROPOSALPROPOSAL

OPEN SOURCE HARDWARE CENTEROPEN SOURCE HARDWARE CENTER

We plan to establish a centre focusing on Arduino (www.arduino.cc)◦Electronics prototyping platform◦Eimple and open source hardware design.

A single board micro controller with embedded input, output support and a standard programming language such as C, Java, sketch, Python …

OBJECTIVESOBJECTIVES

To train the students in developing the Arduino boards and guiding them in doing projects with open source software.

To broadbase student interests and skills into hands-on hardware projects.

Enhancing the employability of students.Making programming an exciting topic.Making the project-based learning into a

enjoyable hobby (rather than chore).

Arduino is a hardware Arduino is a hardware platformplatformA physical Input / Output board

with a programmable IC.

… … a development a development platformplatform

Has an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for programming.

The language itself is based on C, called sketch

Java, Python, Ruby also available

Why Arduino?Why Arduino?Open - both Hardware and

SoftwareCheap- can be built from standard

components – Rs. 200 onlySerial, USB communication with a

computerCan be powered from USB alsoCan design wide range of small-

to-medium complexity tasks

ACTION PLANACTION PLAN

PLAN OF ACTIONPLAN OF ACTION

Building arduino boards by students with the support of faculty.

Developing better student projects.

Conducting workshops to enable other colleges to do both.

Offer internships to students.
