Labs for EECE 1070 meet in the "maker space" Falmouth 102 NOT BALL 420!
Lecture is Tuesday in Ball 214, 0930-1020 AM, First Lecture is Tuesday September 11, Labs start September 11!
Course Objectives: The purpose of this course is to strengthen your mathematics, programming, and problem solving skills to help you to thrive in the engineering programs here at UML. In the process you will learn new things and hopefully have fun. At the end of the course you will be proficient in MATLAB, which is used in many courses here at UML. The second part of the course involves learning about and then writing programs to control hardware devices from an Arduino microcontroller. You will use the Analog Devices Discovery "Lab in a Box" Oscilliscope and WaveForm Generator. You will be designing and building several interesting projects using Arduino microprocessor. Above all, it gives you a taste of what Electrical and Computer engineers do. It is also lots of FUN!!!

Class Reference Materials:
Lab-In-A-Box Materials
EVERYONE MUST PURCHASE YOUR OWN LAB IN THE BOX MATERIALS: Please do so by October 15
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE YOU ARE VALIDATED AS A STUDENT SO YOU CAN GET THE STUDENT PRICE!!!!!!!
Your Base Kit includes:Click on each link.
Chipkit uC32 Arduino Processor
First create a store account on our website at: https://store.digilentinc.com
On the left side is a tab called academic pricing. There is a link called "academic account verification".
Once they are approved they can order at the academic pricing. They will receive a email when their account is verified. The website says to allow up to 2 days for approva. Once they are verified, academic status is good for at least a year.
PLACE YOUR ORDERS EARLY because there is a lead time to get the Discovery Kit.
We Will Give YOU a Parts KIT and proto board on first Day of Hardware Labs (Mid Term).

Important Announcements:
Hint: RMS error=root mean square error= (mean((values-estimates).^2))^0.5
Hint: When you load the sound file "Handel", the output goes into the array y.
New Hint: Use [y, Fs] = wavread(filename) or [y,Fs]=audioread(filename) to read a wav file.
