Description

If you were interested to learn about electronic components, microcontrollers and how they are connected to get a task done in various fields like robotics, autonomous vehicles etc., then this is a great course for you. In this course we will be using Tinkercad. This is an online opensource software that has real time virtual electronic components and connections which can be simulated.Have you wondered how an anti theft alarm works or how automatic railway gate opens or an autonomous cars. These devices use microcontrollers and various sensors, in which they are integrated and programmed to perform a specific task. All the electronic components has embedded systems in it. In this course, we will cover basics of embedded systems and create various projects.If you were interested to learn about electronic components, microcontrollers and how they are connected to get a task done in various fields like robotics, autonomous vehicles etc., then this is a great course for you.
