107: Until They Are Spaghetti
We talked to Craig Cook about learning embedded systems. He recently attended an embedded edX course through University of Texas.
The microcontroller and boards used in the course
Craig's next course will be Interactive Python through Coursera
As we discussed Craig's alarm clock we mentioned many parts including:
FM Module
ESP8266 WiFi Module
Electric Imp (Sparkfun or Digikey, don't forget the April breakout board)
Chris has also been looking at Particle.io's Photon board for WiFi + cloud development. This will be mentioned on other shows (as well as on The Amp Hour).
