Overview
The light box project is designed to be an introduction to electronics and to get students working with the laser cutter and vector graphics software. On the electronics end of the project, students will learn about series circuits, parallel circuits, Ohm's Law, basic components; as well as how to solder a simple circuit. In addition, students will learn about vector graphics and how to create and manipulate them. Students will then learn about laser basics and use our Epilog Helix laser to cut out their lightbox designs.
