Just like the Raspberry Pi kit OI shared earlier, this Arduino Starter Kit provides both the main Arduino board and a host of accessories to let you start making projects right out of the box. I recently purchased my first Arduino and I have found that it got me interested in technology all over again. Even as a die hard tech hobbyist and a technology consultant, the joy of making your own projects — and getting them working — helped me recapture my enjoyment of technology all over again.
Is HAM radio still relevant in this day of cell phones and high-speed Internet connections wherever you go? You Bet! From emergency communication services during natural disasters to communicating with the International Space Station and student satellites in space, HAM radio bridges huge distances in science and between people.
Join us at a Hackerspace Los Angeles weekly meet up. Come by and mingle with like-minded people and see what others are working on. Find out what planned activities we have and how you can participate.
If you are interested in helping us establish a permanent location in the San Fernando Valley you need to be here to help us plan this and make it happen. We’ll still be holding classes/workshops of various interests once a month. I will be posting the schedule later in the week and will be announced in separate meetup for each of the workshops.
