Reviews of our Training
"Your courses are simply the best out there and have given me insight to how to help with this project. Thank You very much."
-Michael Myers, Longview, TX
"Armed with your information, last evening I was able to assemble the code to make an Uno read values from a Type-K thermocouple in Fahrenheit and output this information to a 16x2RGB LCD screen.
Cannot express the feeling I had when I saw something beyond Hello World!"
-Ken Quimby, Maumelle, AR
Required Hardware
- Arduino Compatible Board
- Jumper Wires
- Pushbutton
- 10K Ohm Resistor
Course Description
In this course you'll learn to use Arduino code to send a signal to an attached computer, which then interfaces with Processing code, that interfaces with the Twitter API, and ultimately posts a tweet to a twitter account. The process as a whole is a great learning experience in itself.
Length of Instruction: 1 hour and 10 minutes of video instruction.
Import Notes: Effort is made to keep this course up to date, however, since the Twitter API registration process updates regularly, some of the video in this course may not match the most current webpage. Regardless, the overall process will remain the same.
