Glow your own (3/6) (2024)

Digital event: scroll down to watch the recording

Get ready for the Oxford Light Festival by creating your very own moving lantern. This weekly workshop series will help you build your own creative circuit with sensors that control LEDs and motors, using tools like Tinkercad to combine art and engineering.

Workshop 3 creates a bigger circuit and introduces control with a simple push button. It shows how to upload code from Tinkercad using Duino.app and how to make your circuit portable by connecting it to a battery.

Suitable for ages 7 – 12, teenagers and adults. We recommend families work together.

Six live video sessions will be recorded to watch again on if-oxford.com
