2014 Tutorial Overview

An overview of the upcoming tutorial series that I will be offering in 2014. The three video series will revolve around programming with Arduino, custom circuit board design with EagleCad, and 3D cad modeling with Autodesk Inventor. Here is the first Arduino Tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEnYN1FbP90 Here are some great resources to get you started: http://arduino.cc/ The home base for all things Arduino. Download the free programming software here. http://www.cadsoftusa.com/download-eagle/freeware/?language=en My personal software preference for designing custom circuit boards. http://www.123dapp.com/ The free and simpler version of Autodesk Inventor which I will be using to demonstrate modeling with a 3D CAD software. https://www.sparkfun.com/ "The Google of the electronics industry." The best company out there for all-things electronics. With an incredible tutorial database, daily informational videos and huge selection of products with in-depth details on how to use them, Sparkfun is your one-stop shop for awesomeness. They also have a very helpful and attractive team of employees. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11576 The Sparkfun Inventor's Kit is my recommendation for anyone looking to learn Arduino and general electronic components. http://www.robotshop.com/ca/ For my fellow Canadians, this site offers many of Sparkfun's products and has an extensive variety of servos. http://www.superbrightleds.com/ The best resource for lighting. They offer the most variety of LED lighting solutions and at very reasonable costs. . http://blog.iteadstudio.com/ The best custom-circuit board production company available. I have yet to find local company that offers the same small-quantity orders for the same ridiculously cheap prices. The boards are high-quality, can be virtually any shape and have about a two-week turnaround time.
