This course is specially designed for design students without a CS background, aiming to master basic IOT (C-Arduino). It is committed to combining creativity and technology through continuous learning, exploring the boundaries and design value of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). The course will focus on how to quickly learn and master the Arduino programming language and hardware interaction principles, enabling rapid engagement in the functional presentation of design works and the creation of specific demos in human-computer interaction design. Prototyping is an indispensable part of the design process, visualizing and concretizing the designer’s concepts, allowing designers to quickly test and evaluate design outputs. Arduino is a convenient, flexible, and easy-to-use open-source electronic prototyping platform that can drive various electrical and electronic components, achieving almost any electronic technology interaction or visual art effect you desire. As designers, we can use Arduino to quickly realize the ideas in our minds, facilitating communication with the team to evaluate whether the interactions are reasonable, or to showcase our creativity to the audience, or even to initiate project crowdfunding.
