Imagine a world where IoT devices are haunted by supernatural beings; where specters, familiars, or gremlins are fundamental components of of smart devices. Realize a plausible but alternative IoT ...more

Manipulate a system or technical process to produce an outcome or effect that someone might struggle to explain.

Prepare a conceptual design and realize a working prototype of a IoT devices that will coordinate to meaningfully enhance social relationships.

As part of this exercise you’ll practice networked interactions with the Particle event model and create a simple set of paired devices in preparation for the final project.

Get oriented with output and feedback by working with an actuator. Taking cues from Google's Paper Signals experiment with materials to create an interesting notification or effect when combined wi...more

This practice exercise will challenge you to create an ambient calendar alert using a neopixel strip. By the end of the project, you’ll have connected your Particle device to your Google Calendar t...more

Prepare a simple 2-in (sensors or inputs), 1-out (LEDs) device (i.e. your project will use three components and at least one must be a sensor). Present a simple use case for a connected sensing dev...more
