    Hi Greg,

     

    Welcome to E-14. We have a great community of people here who share a passion for electronics and related fields. What are your background and interests? If you hover your cursor over someone's name you will get a snapshot of their profile. If you click on their name you will get the actual profile. I see that you are interested in Arduino. This is a very interesting area and there are lots of resources on E-14 that relate to Arduino. I look forward to any posts you may make on the forum.

     

    John

    thanks john, i have always wanted to build robots, i really feel that they are going to be the next major tech break threw like the internet was in the dot com days. for a career i have been a welder and builder for 20 years and now i do 3d cad full time, so that will help me with robotics but i have never known electronics  or programming and that has always bothered me.  then about 2 months ago somehow i stumbled upon arduino and instantly feel in love with the learning process as it is much more fulfilling than just reading books to learn electronics. so i got elegoo starter kit and was very impressed with the quality of their components so i have been buying up almost everything they offer. just by chance elegoo sent me an email saying they are going to send me a new robotic car to build and review for free so that is awesome and i cant wait to see what they send me!

    Hi Greg,

    That is really interesting. One of our most prominent members shabaz  has incorporated some of the elegoo components in his blogs in the past. I bet he would find it interesting if you blogged about the elegoo robotic car when it arrives. I am looking forward to hearing more about your exploration of electronics and robotics.
