20140130002 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR USING A BREADBOARD - A method for using a breadboard involves receiving a circuit wiring connection layout, in which the circuit wiring connection layout includes a visual representation of circuit elements. The method further involves sending, to the breadboard, the circuit wiring connection layout, receiving a selection of a circuit element from the circuit elements to obtain a selected circuit element, sending, to the breadboard and based on the selected circuit element, a signal to activate an alert device on the breadboard indicating where a user should place the selected circuit element on the breadboard, receiving a circuit characteristic to measure from the selected circuit element, sending, to the breadboard, the circuit characteristic to measure from the selected circuit element, receiving, from the breadboard, a measurement of the circuit characteristic to obtain a measured circuit characteristic, and displaying the measured circuit characteristic. | 05-08-2014 |
