Never been to a Maker Faire? Whether you’re an engineer, an educator, or just someone that appreciates hands-on fun, you’ll have a great time exploring the inventive demos and DIY projects that are scattered throughout the massive 215,000-person event.
We’re getting ready for Maker Faire Bay Area in May and can’t wait to show off new demos using our Maker-ready development systems like our MCU LaunchPad rapid prototyping development kit, Sitara™-processor-powered BeagleBoards and the SimpleLink™ Bluetooth® Smart SensorTag.
Besides our awesome demos, TI will also have multiple speaking sessions for you to learn a little more about interesting Maker-friendly projects and background history on our Maker solutions. Jason Kridner, co-founder of BeagleBoard.org, will speak about everything from why BeagleBoard is open hardware to using Linux and web servers for teaching electronics . Trey German, LaunchPad applications manager and Maker-extraordinaire, will also speak about turning your appliances into DIY connected devices.
Bring your kids, your friends, your significant other (but don’t bring your dogs because they’re not allowed in the building) and see what the fuss is all about!
