Texas Instruments
There will be two Texas Instruments workshops covering the BeagleBoard.org PocketBeagle and the TI SimpleLink MSP432 LaunchPad. One workshop will be geared more towards beginners and the other will be a more advanced overview. The workshop is oriented towards the competition but is open to all interested students.
The first 25 students for each workshop who have both submitted their Phase 1 – Intent to Compete submission and RSVP’d for either workshop will be allowed to keep a kit of the PocketBeagle and TI Launchpad for use in both the competition and any personal projects. Students may attend both workshops but can only take home 1 kit. It is recommended that you bring your laptop, and food will be provided.
