Introduction to Physical Computing (PhyComp)
Date: June 3 - July 13, 2013
Instructors : Maxime Besacier (main contact), Didier Donsez, David Eon, Olivier Richard, Jean-Michel Molenaar, Jean-Baptiste Joatton.
Organisation : 60 h
Code APOGEE : PPSTI301 (Main presentation of the BSP
Lecture / tutorials / homeworks / lab and company visits (LIG Domus, CCSTI's fablab, Orange Labs' thinging fablab, CEA HOMES show room, Schneider Electrics Montbonnot Unit)
Prerequisites : Elementary notions of programming and electronics. Notions in C or Java languages are appriciated but not mandatory.
Topics: Computer Sciences, Electronic, Instrumentation
Physical computing (PhyComp) focuses on interactions with the physical world using a variety of sensors and actuators that are controlled by microcontrollers and computers. An important feature is that developers are not usually specialists of embedded and ubiquitous computing. This results in development tools that emphasize the simplicity of programming and developing these types of applications.
The Arduino project is a prime example of this movement. It offers both an experimental board, built around a low cost microcontroller with a few input-output ports, and an integrated development environment that simplifies its usage. This board is now extensively used in a large array of contexts, including: rapid prototyping, testing and education around physical computing.
This module introduces the technical aspects of development with the Arduino platform and presents the user community that has grown around it. It offers an opportunity to gain experience on the Arduino platform by prototyping physical computing applications with a mix of sensors and actuators including making the things shells in a fablab using laser cutters, 3D printer, ... (see pictures below).
