The Stickuino is delivered as a kit and needs to be assembled by its owner. That means: soldering! Soldering is a great skill to possess for the rest of your lifetime. Furthermore, it will take away any hesitations or fear you might have for handling delicate hardware. In short: it will help you to become a Maker.<\/p>\n

Reserve a slot<\/h4>\n

To solder your Stickuino, reserve a slot for one of the soldering workshops<\/a>. Attending one of these workshops and soldering a Stickuino kit is a requirement for passing the Interaction technology course. (Unless you\u2019ve been a participant in this course last year. If this concerns you and you haven’t done so already, please contact the lecturer of the embedded systems and sensors assignment to discuss this.)<\/p>\n

The program<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>The program for each of the soldering workshops is:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Handing out of Interaction technology kits, going over the contents and checking for completeness<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Explanation of the Stickuino components<\/a> and its assembly, as well as basic soldering techniques.<\/li>\n
  3. Soldering<\/a>, testing<\/a> and cleaning of your Stickuino.<\/li>\n
  4. Installation<\/a> of the Arduino IDE on your computer and connecting to your Stickuino.<\/li>\n
  5. First steps in programming your Stickuino with Blink, the Hello World for Arduino.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Bring your own computer to the workshop. <\/strong>It is important that you leave the workshop with a working hardware\/software setup, to be able to work on the assignment from home. If your laptop only features USB-C please bring a USB-C to USB-A adapter as well.
    \n<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Additional soldering?<\/h4>\n

    It would be nice if you’d at least go through the first 4 steps during the soldering workshop, as it leaves you with a fully working environment that you can use on your own to build electronic circuits and program your microcontroller. If you run out of time and\/or need to do some additional soldering later on, you can make use of the practical assistance that we offer. See the support<\/a> page for details. Acquiring a (simple) soldering iron yourself, as well as some other basic tools (screwdriver, pliers) may save you some trips to campus.<\/p>\n

    Moving on<\/h4>\n

    During the soldering workshop, you can take a break whenever you like. And of course, feel free to ask any questions. Let’s start working<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
