Abstract

Science Makers is a monthly event to discuss and build low-cost, DIY and open hardware for science and education.
This month we’re looking at sensor networks. Hear from researchers building and using sensor networks for science and get hands-on in the afternoon working on a project.
12:00 Arrival and coffee
12:30 – Presentations and demos
âĸ Cecilia Mascolo on wireless sensor networks and Emotionsense
âĸ Helene Steiner on plants as sensor networks
âĸ Helen Pritchard on citizensense, a practice-based research project investigating digital sensors and environmental practice.
13:30 – Pizza (ÂŖ4 suggested donation)
14:30 – Making!
We’ll be building a PM2 .5 air quality sensor based on Arduino with citizensense.
You are also welcome to work on your own projects.
