WattHack 2022

Got no plans during your mid-sem break? Feeling crafty and have no means for implementing? Or are you looking for a fun project to do?

Join us for WattHack, our flagship event this semester. WattHack is a 2-day makeathon where you can rack your brain and work with others to create an engineering prototype with e-waste parts!

If you're a beginner to Arduino and practical projects, fear not! We have a pre-WattHack Arduino Crash Course listed just below.

If you don't have a team, that is completely fine. Sign up now, and we'll find you a team on the day.

Wednesday & Thursday, 20th & 21st April

Check out the interview here.

Pre-WattHack Arduino Crash Course

Signed up to WattHack but don't know much about Arduino programming, or maybe you need a refresher.

Come to our Pre-WattHack Arduino Crash Course to get up to speed, so you can hit the ground running 🏃 on day 1 of WattHack!

Tuesday, 12th April 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Newton Room, Level 5, EEE Building

No registration required.

E-Waste Teardown

For WattHack, the MUEEC committee will be tearing down e-waste such as printers 🖨️, oscilloscopes and power supplies for useful parts 🔌.

Come along to our E-Waste Teardown and work alongside us if this is something you are interested in.

Taking apart machines can be valuable in learning how they work, and what kind of parts power them!

Plus, you'll get a sneak peek into what e-waste parts will be available at WattHack 👀

Tuesday, 12th April 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Basement, Telstra Creator Space

Come at any time. No registration required.

Circuit Essentials - LEDs

Light up your projects! This week's Circuit Essentials reviews the fundamentals of Light Emitting Diodes, or LED's.
By the end, you should be confident you can make that random LED from the bottom of the component drawer do what you want it to.
