Sensors, Probes and Detectors
From (art)scienceblr
Sensors,probes and detectors is a gentle introductory class to electronics. In the context of art, sensors are important because they form a bridge between the natural world and the digital.From a design perspective, they are vital to creating interactive objects. Through hands-on workshops, we will build our own sensors and create objects that “talk” and “listen” to the environment.
