Arduino step by step: his full guide
I took this class with my uncle and it was really perfect, starting in total beginners, through a moderate level of experience with Arduino. Why is Arduino important for a permaculture geek? It is a super cheap and infinitely customizable platform for home automation, security, management of its aquaponia configuration, temperature and monitoring humidity, etc., etc., etc.
The Arduino is an open source electronic platform based on hardware and easy to use software. Feeling the environment upon receiving tickets from many sensors, Arduino affects your environment controlling lights, engines and a series of other accessories. It is intended for anyone who does interactive hardware projects.
This course is designed to present the hardware and programming environment of Arduino to begin to build projects as soon as possible.

Raising chickens in your backyard: chicken eggs for food
Are chickens in the backyard for you? Are you ready to step and become chicken owners? After seeing several kinds of training and going out with some friends with chickens, we decided to wait a year (or forever).
It seems that wherever you go, people are raising chickens. Mainly for their eggs, but some farmers in the rear patio are even raising their own chickens for meat. As the world goes through a variety of changes, and food is becoming a problem, we may return to the old customs and all will have chickens.
Each chicken provides 12 to 20 dozen Eggs per year, for at least 3 years.
Then, in this course, we will take a look behind the scene of the real chickens and have a real life with chickens. You will meet my flock and we will broadcast all your dirty clothes.

Building something for the Internet of IoT things
Because once you have created your Arduino device (Aquaponics Manager, Smart Home System, Short Wave Radio Morse Code Interface, etc.), then you will want to connect it to the Internet. Or imagine building a simple humidity sensor system strategically placed throughout its patio that indicates which part is dried first after a strong rain, or how well your drip irrigation system works. Now connect it to the Internet and store months or years of data as your soil improves all your permaculture projects …
What do Apple Watch, Nest Termostat, Amazon Echo and the Pedbble smart clock have in common? All are “things” on the Internet of things, a worldwide network of devices that communicate with each other, the cloud and our phones.
This course will guide it through the design, development and creation of prototypes of a representative “thing” and will show you how to prepare to launch a crowd financing campaign to finance production.
