Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are behind most of today’s displays and lighting designs. Learn about LEDs, how to design with them, and how to teach others to build a /solderless/ LED ‘Torch’ from the IET and then how to /solder/ an LED Badge from the LEarn to Solder Booth at World Maker Fiare NY during this 65 minute session.
