This week was about getting familiar with the design of printed circuit boards (PCBs) using electronic design automation (EDA) software. Our task was to design a development board for an MCU. Besides that, we introduced ourselves to electrical measurement devices in the lab.

This week, we learned how to fabricate a PCB based on the design from week 8 using a milling machine. We did so by milling copper-foiled PCB stocks.

This week, we were introduced to different output devices (such as various types of motors, addressable LEDs, etc.), and how to work with them. In my personal assignment, I designed and built small addressable LED matrix based on WS2812B LEDs and set it up to be controlled by the gyroscope I worked with in the input-devices week.

This week, the Task was to continue working on the final project, including programming, design, electronics, and assembly. In particular, it should be considered how to integrate all components of the system in a nice way.
