Summary of Schools projects with Arduino: Flow Meter
The Loccioni Group's "Classe Virtuale 2012" internship involved 27 students working on an Arduino-based Flow Meter project. This initiative demonstrates how open-source technologies like Arduino can effectively support educational projects and hands-on learning for technical students. The Flow Meter project was showcased on July 19 and highlights the practical integration of Arduino in measuring fluid flow.
Parts used in the Flow Meter project:
- Arduino board
- Flow sensor
- Connecting wires
- Power supply
- Display unit (e.g., LCD)
- Resistors
- Capacitors
- Breadboard or PCB
Loccioni Group, is an italian company that sponsors every year a project internship entitled “Classe Virtuale”, dedicated to young students coming from local technical schools.
This year, “Classe Virtuale 2012″ has been composed by 27 students with different backgrounds, selected among 120 candidates. After a stating training period, during the three-weeks internship the team worked on a very nice Arduino-based project: Flow Meter.
Here you may find a brief interview we had with Daniele Caschera, one of the components of “Classe Virtuale 2012″, about Flow Meter and on how Arduino helped in its design.
This very nice project, which has been presented on July 19 (the streaming of the event will be available here), represents another example of how open-source solutions can be used as effective enabling technologies, even for educational purposes.
Great job “Classe Virtuale” and thanks for this interview!
