Hi, I'm Bob
My name is Bob Clagett and I like to make stuff. All kinds of stuff. I do my best to take ideas and turn them into reality, with the hope that you’ll be inspired to do the same. Using microcontrollers in my projects helps take them to a whole new level of interactivity! My hope is that this course will give you the toolset and understanding start building electronics into your projects and bring your ideas to life.
