Embedded systems are essentially computers which perform only specific functions. They are found in many common items such as remote controls, digital watches, MP3 player, and many modern devices we use every day. In this module, learners complete a series of projects leading up to designing their very own embedded system. They experiment with various sensors (e.g. PIR, ultrasonic, temperature, tilt, and microphone) and actuators (e.g. servo motor, LCD, relay, speaker and LED). The embedded system used is Arduino and the programming language is C/C++.Audience: 8 years old and aboveYou can book your seats now at no cost.

The festival is similar to other such events held in major cities such as Edinburgh, Manchester, New York and Singapore, and is another step taken by Petrosains to play our role as a leading science centre and important supporting component to the country’s educational landscape. Through this Festival, we hope to further contribute to the popularizing of science to the public that combines the engaging and interactive Petrosains approach with the day-to-day relevance that industry and academia partners will bring.
