We continued the IEEE Education Week with a signal processing workshop on Tuesday, April 14th. Students participating learned how to build a frequency spectrum analyzer for audio input using Arduino and use it to control an actuator. For some students, it was their first introduction to working with Arduino. More workshops using micro-controllers have been planned for the future by the student branch.
