New to Arduino

Post by Bmorales4 »

Hello, my name is Bryan Morales. I'm from Miami, Florida and i
attend a school here called George T. Baker Aviation Academy. Im in a
class course called Avionics, and im learning pretty much right now
the basics of electronics. I am almost done with AC Circuits lessons i
finished my DC Circuit. I came across this whole Arduino board from a
news blog in CNN how some guy managed to hack a remote control and
programmed it with Arduino in making the TV mute when certain
celebrities came on the TV. I for myself thought that was really
interesting i started going on these different sites and started
learning more about Arduino and all these different projects. Im
interested in working with Arduino but the thing is where do i start?.
I read a interview on how Ladyada recommended these certain books like Getting
Started with Arduino and Practical Arduino: Cool Projects for Open
Source Hardware for beginners. As for the Arduino boards where do i get them? and
which kind is best for me to start with. If any one can come across this message and message me back i
would be grateful. Thanks :)
