Today we will be working with the Sparkfun Inventor’s Kit.

To get it working we will need to download 2 things:

The Arduino Integrated Developer Environment (How we can tell the redboard what to do.)

The FTDI USB Drivers (So the computer can talk to the redboard.)

Other useful information:

MicroController Lab instructions are here.

The Inventors Kit guide (This has all of the steps, and programs that you will need to upload to the redboard.)
