World Maker Faire 2013 - Truly Crazy Engineering
Quote:
Jordan Penchas is 13-year old boy from Houston who enjoys playing video games and experimenting with electronics. When his friend gave him an Arduino Unoâan inexpensive open-source motherboard that is popular among DIY computer programmersâhe ingeniously used it to modify the gaming experience for his Nintendo Wii. WIRED magazine recently reported that Penchas will soon take an even bigger engineering leap next year using ArduLabâa space science kit employing Arduino technology that allows young programmers to remotely conduct a range of experiments on the International Space Station.
Massimo Banzi, co-founder of the Arduino project, is one of the many designers, programmers, hackers, and builders who appeared at this yearâs #-Link-Snipped-# at the New York Hall of Science. Banziâs work on Arduino has enabled young minds like Penchas to explore the exciting groundswell of learning opportunities arising from the maker community.
