From idea to KiCad & beyond: How to design & build an LED project
Learn how to easily go from an idea to a professional-looking LED project. Including designing and creating your own PCBs and cases, why this is so much fun, and why all of this is easier than you expect.
Soldering a Neopixel LED strip to an ESP32 or Arduino to make it glow can be a fun start for building LED projects. But how do you actually make an LED project that looks and feels like a professional product?
**Join this talk and learn:**
- how to easily plan and design a product, with its unique case design, PCBs with all the components you need and which fit perfectly into the case
- how to design LED projects to be not just repairable, but also easy to modify and extend - or in other words: maker friendly
- how to have fun exploring and combining all the various PCB types, components, and materials for making LED projects
- how all of this is a lot easier than you expect
**About the speaker:**
Marco (nickname "glowingkitty") is creating open-source LED lamps and development kits, to get more people excited about creating their own LED projects and getting interested in industrial design and electronics.

Das US-Militär hat massenhaft Geräte zur biometrischen Erfassung von Menschen in Afghanistan genutzt. Einige Geräte wurden beim hastigen Abzug der NATO-Truppen zurückgelassen. Wir haben bei Analysen solcher Geräte große Mengen an biometrischen und weiteren personenbezogenen Daten gefunden. In den falschen Händen bedeuten diese Daten Lebensgefahr für Menschen in Afghanistan und Irak.

In IT security we have been preoccupied with failures, with things that go wrong, and so we count the negatives -- the times when we failed. How about we seriously started counting the positives? More importantly, what if by adding more and more constraints to avoid the holes we have found, we are also removing the positive capacities in the system, thereby hurting our chance of success more than we hurt our chance of failure? In this talk, I will try to highlight how IT security could be done ...

The C programming language first appeared in 1972 and became enormously popular. It has this magical combination of features that allows developers to quickly write portable code that can be reused and easily ported to different architectures. It has been the foundation of most operating systems and systems programming in the past 50 years.
