Neuro-Electronic

1- We will motivate the participant to straighten up their mind in a way to find how we can think and imagine.

2- We will share together our opinion about a quote.

• Most of the participant will try to reflect their imagination on their life and how real their imagination.

2- Then we will ask them how we are imagining these things.

• Most of them will start saying things about their dreams, and they need to sleep to imagine.
• Our Imagination works as a link between what’s in our mind and reality, mostly it’s a way of linking ideas with what we see, smell, taste, and touch.

3- Then we will ask how these thoughts are formed.

• Most of the participant will say it’s in our brain.

4- Thoughts are a chemical release in the brain, which generate an electrical signal in the neurons, This signal will propagate like a wave to thousands of neurons.

5- Explain the neurons as an information messenger uses electrical pulses and chemical signals.

6- Then we will describe the human brain as a complex organ weight up to 3 pounds and are formed out of water and fats.

7- Then we will show them a video about the human brain.

8- Then we will ask them for an example of a human made thing that can mimic the brain.

• Most of them will say the computer
• some of the student will say the CPU.

1- We will tell the participant that we will be soldering the board of Muscle shield, so we can read the signals reaches the muscles from the brain.

2- Then we will show a video for the participant to show what the board is capable of.

3- Then we will show the needed component to have the board done

1- We will guide the participant on how they can solder.

• To solder, it’s important to make sure that the solder iron is hot and can reach the needed pin to solder.
• The solder wire should be stored in a dry and cold place, so it’s not oxidized.
• The solder wire should contain flux to spread the heat on the vine.

2- Then we will start preparing the board for the soldering process by knowing the direction of the board.

3- Then we will introduce the component we have to install and solder, to classify each type a side.

4- Then we will start with the diode, and we will solder it.

5- Then we will ask the participant to recheck their soldering, so they make sure the diode is firmly installed and connected.

6- Then we will start installing the capacitors, In this kit we have two types of capacitors blue capacitor and brown capacitors.

7- Then we will install the brown capacitors.

8- Then we will show the board after installing these component, and we need to make sure that all the component are connected.

9- At this point we have finalized all the capacitors and the only diode.

10- Now we need to install all the resistors of the kit, But the resistors are going to be installed in a (U) Shape, so we have to bend the resistor before it’s installed on the board.

11- We have to make sure that all the resistors are the correct value in the correct place.

12- This how the board should look like after the resistors being installed.

1- We will start with showing the component we want to install and solder.

2- The first component are going to be the 3.5 mm jacks for the input signal and the output signal.

3- Then we have to install all the remaining component and solder them (relay, LED’s, switches, push button, and the IC’s Holders).

4- We have to make sure that all the pins installed are in the right position and not tilted, so they go through the pin of the Arduino.

5- Then we have to isolate the back side of the shield using electric tape to avoid the contact with the Arduino metal head.

6- Then we will connect the shield with the Arduino.

1- It’s necessary to recap all the information we had in the previous days.

2- It’s Important also to ask the participant if they have any questions regarding what they have been through in the previous days.

3- Then we will ask the participant the needed question.

4- Then we will ask about the PCB and what it stands for.

5- Then we will show the participant what we will do, and we will show them a video about the capability of the shield.

1- The first step is to make sure that the shield and the board are connected.

2- Then we will open the provided code.

3- Then we have to install the library of the I2C LCD.

4- Then we will connect the Arduino to the computer, and we will prepare the setting to upload the code to the Arduino.

5- Now we will unplug the Arduino from the computer, and we will connect the LCD with the device.

6- Then we will connect the Electrode signals pads on the wrest.

7- Then we will plug the Signals wires with the pads and the Arduino to the computer to be powered up.

8- Then if we want top visualize the data, we have to go to the Arduino IDE and open the serial monitor or the Serial Plotter.

9- Serial Monitor

10- Serial Plotter

Note: It’s important to make sure that all the participant have their board firmly soldered and all the part are in the right place.

Also, The board has 2 different moods, so make sure the board at the correct mood through moving the switch right and left.
