The IHCLab is pleased to announce the publication of a new book by our researchers.

This is the book "DIY Microcontroller Projects for Hobbyists", by Professor Pedro Santana in collaboration with Professor Miguel García from Algoma University within the framework of the international project «Use of low cost hardware in human-computer interaction classes across Mexico and Canada ».

The book was designed as an introduction for those who are new to digital electronics and microcontrollers and want to dive into the world of embedded systems, with a project-based approach for the ease of readers. Basic knowledge of digital circuits and C / C ++ programming is desirable, but it is written for people just starting out with digital electronics projects. It was intended to acquire knowledge while creating projects such as measuring the temperature and air quality of the environment, to continue with projects that have an Internet connection with a focus on IoT, and end with projects to help protect people against COVID -19 in this new normal, how to build a device to maintain social distancing.

By the end of the book, readers are expected to have developed a strong foundation in PIC and STM32 microcontroller electronics and programming, adding valuable skills to the professional portfolio.

We invite you to read it!
