Introduction

Hello, 1st day here. My name is Dean.

I'm a hobbyist Interested in Costume Design/Fabrication. I have a 3D Printer I haven't used yet. I also have a few Ardino Uno boards I like to learn how to program for servo animatronics.

I'm also a Balloon Twister Artist, hence my Screen name of DeanBalloonatic.

Welcome. What is your technology background?

Someone with programming experience vs someone with no knowledge would take a different entry point for an arduino.

I've Forgotten any computer Languages I've Known, like Basic and HTML. LOL, But at least I've known it, and could quickly learn with a refresher.

Basic understanding of Electronics without any schooling on that.

Your initial learnings are a foundation. I'm going to venture to guess that your career choice involves problem solving.

There are numerous examples of solutions using Arduino's. Think of a problem/project you would like to tackle. Describe you vision. More detail the better. You will be surprised at the resource offerings this site will make.

I caution you on posting, I want to do this, with little detail. Invest in the E14 Community and they will in turn invest in you with a response.
