This might be an interesting approach for my Mechatronics class this fall. I
would probably use it as a soft transition from teaching DAQs in Labview to I/O
on an Arduino. I will still want to do the section where we do the C/C++ on the
Arduinos, but this might be a good transition that isn’t quite so abrupt. They
already learned I/O in Labview and have used Matlab/Octave in quite a few
previous classes, so it would be a baby step toward C/C++.
