Starting a new category because I’m starting a new project and it needs a home.<\/p>\n

For several years I’ve been teaching “Making Things Interactive” at CMU’s IDeATe program with all assignments turned in on the class blog<\/a>.\u00a0 It’s basically “Arduino 102” where we take what people learned in an intro to physical computing class and use that to provide interaction to static concepts.<\/p>\n

Every year students have said they want to work on bigger\/larger projects over more weeks.\u00a0 I’ve been trying to think of accessibility projects that would work this way and not coming up with anything I’m enthused about.<\/p>\n

Then, while thinking about the design of the kitchen in the home we’re building and doing some research, I discovered just how bad gas stoves are for the environment.\u00a0 I also had a little safety “incident” (as we like to call them) which was more of a kick in the pants to start an environmental sensor project.<\/p>\n

I’ll go in to detail in the next post, the one kicking off my “sensor box” project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
