List of Hardware Components
Sketching with hardware requires some hardware components. For creating a functional prototype we typically need a microcontroller, sensors, actuators, and components to link the parts together.
To get started and to follow the course only a small set of parts is required. You can do many of the exercises and tutorials with only a microcontroller (e.g. ESP32, ESP8266), a few LEDs, and some resistors. We recommend getting started and once you like building things then get a hardware kit.
In the following list, we have marked the components that are in the LMU hardware box with 'LMUBox'.
Microcontroller and Main Boards
- ESP32 Web Kit with integrated OLED Display from Heltec LMUBox
- ESP8266 D1 Mini
- ESP8266 ESP-12F NodeMCU Module from AZDelivery LMUBox
- ESP8266 ESP-12F OLED NodeMCU Module with integrated 0.91" OLED Display from AZDelivery
- ESP32 TTGO with OLED Display
- Raspberry Pi Pico
- Raspberry Pi
Actuators
- LEDs in different colors to connect externally, many in the LMUBox
- RGB LED multi-color LED, 2x in the LMUBox
