El curso apunta a estudiante de último año de educación escolar y primer año de educación universitaria, o cualquier otro alumno con suficiente motivación como para llevar a cabo sus propios experimentos y seguir aprendiendo en el futuro.
Si bien no es un requisito esencial, los alumnos que tengan nociones de cálculo diferencial e integral podrán entender mejor algunos tópicos específicos, que no son estrictamente necesarios para concluir el curso.
El curso incluye demostraciones de dispositivos electromecánicos sencillos controlados mediante un Arduino. Cada circuito demostrativo lleva asociado un diagrama de conexiones y un programa, ambos debidamente explicados, para facilitar que sean replicados por los alumnos empleando la plataforma Arduino.
