Welcome to the course New Devices Lab. During NDL you will learn to work with IoT and new innovations. The course tries to involve you in learning the differences in small electronics compared to commonly used electronics such as laptops.
Wiki
The wiki contains some general information and will contain some basic guides/videos on how to work through issues you might encounter during your project. The wiki should be your first togo to find information on how to do things. If you can’t find the information you need, then you can always ask the SA’s or the teachers.
How do I find information on the wiki?
On the left you can use the Explorer browse through the hierarchy of the wiki. If you want to search for something specific, you can use the search bar on the top right. This will try and match the word on any page.
Course organisation
In the first weeks we will have a small assignment to prepare you on how to work with small components. Typically, this is to code a game on a Wemos and make it use certain components to control this game. Then the rest of this course will be a project in groups of 2 which you will decide on yourself. This project is also what will be your final grade. These projects are quite a lot, but by showing up to both mandatory classes, you should be able to finish the project in time! (detailed information including file formats, assignments, presentation information etc. See below:)

Project proposal
For the project proposal you will need to make a document explaining what you want to do, how you are going to do this, what the pitfalls of the project could be and possible extensions of the project if you have time left. This has to be a pdf! For inspiration you can look at the link below:
Shopping list
The shopping list will have to be made according to some general rules, these rules are visible in the course organisation link. This file has to be a .csv! (For more info see the link below)
