Case Study 03
The Toolkit – Where Your Journey Begins
From Inspiration to Action
In the previous posts, I shared the story of how Arduino Community Bangladesh started and how a lack of resources drove us to write. But inspiration alone cannot build a robot. You need the right tools.
Over the years, I have met countless students who ask, "Bhaiya, where do I start?" or "How do I prepare for the Robot Olympiad?"
The answer lies in these two books. They are not just textbooks; they are the documentation of our entire journey—designed to take you from zero knowledge to building innovation.
1. The Gateway: Arduinote Hatekhori (আরডুইনোতে হাতেখড়ি)
This is where it all begins. We wrote this book for the absolute beginner—whether you are a school student, a university fresher, or a hobbyist. If you have never written a line of code or held a microcontroller, this book is your starting point.
What you will learn: Basics of electronics, understanding the Arduino environment, and your first "Hello World" in hardware.
Why it matters: It removes the fear of technology. It proves that hardware is easy.
2. The Deep Dive: Hoye Otho Ekjon Problem Solver (হয়ে ওঠো একজন প্রবলেম সলভার)
Once you know how to blink a light, what's next? This book is the bridge between a hobbyist and an engineer. This is the text that many World Robot Olympiad (WRO) and International Robot Olympiad (IRO) medalists have used to refine their logic.
What you will learn: The Hacking Mindset, Product Design, Advanced Sensors, IoT, and most importantly—how to solve real-world problems using technology.
Why it matters: It doesn't just teach you how to build; it teaches you what to build and why. It prepares you for competitive robotics and the 4th Industrial Revolution.
Final Thoughts
These books represent years of research, late nights in the lab, and the collective dream of Munem Shahriar, myself, and our team. We didn't just write them to sell copies; we wrote them to spark a revolution.
If you are dreaming of winning a Gold Medal for Bangladesh, or simply want to automate your home, grab these copies. Let the building begin.
