Microcontroller Contest 2017
694 Entries, 53 Prizes
Take control in this year’s Microcontroller Contest! There are so many microcontrollers out there from Arduino and Raspberry Pi to Beaglebone, Flora, and Edison. Not familiar with any of these? That’s okay. As long as your project includes a microcontroller of any kind, it will qualify for the contest. Winners will be getting fun prizes provided by Digi-Key including a MacBook Air, an iPad Air 2, and a Robot Arm Model for Arduino.
No matter what microcontroller you decide to use, don’t forget to use clear documentation and include any code you write for your project to give your Instructable that little extra boost. Now, get out there and take control!
If you want some direction, check out our classes on Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Electronics, and Robots!
