Event
Bent Festival Workshop: Sensors | Networks
A hands-on, goal-oriented workshop geared to the intermediate circuit
builder, covering topics of analog sensors, simple timer circuits, and
digital switching. We will learn about light sensors, operational
amplifiers, comparators, feedback and electronically controlled switches
(transistors, relays, and solid state relays), and how to use them
together to create a simple switching circuit which will turn a light on
an off based on the amount of light detected by a sensor. By the end of
the workshop we should have roughly 20 light controlled light devices
which will be installed in the Bent Festival venue space, configured as an
interactive light based installation. Beginners are welcome but should
read up on related topics: basic electronics, time varying electronics
(analog), amplifiers, sensors and detectors, basic digital theory, and
high voltage safety. All participants will be required to sign a
liability waver due to the use of circuits which involved mains power
sources.
