Hardware Lab
Workshop
Kick Off
Question 1
Why Hardware
Software v.s. Mobile App
App = Software + Sensors(Hardware)
App => Solution
Question 1.1
Why Open Hardware Matters
Theory => Circuit => PCB
Design => Simulation => Wiring
Accessibility is the key
Question EX
What are Silicon Valley guys working on?
The wearable devices
3D Printing
Home Robot
The Internet of Things
Smart Router
