Arduino is one of the lecture materials taught to year 3 students of Mechanical Engineering ITB. This material is given through lectures and practical work in the laboratory in a limited time. In fact, this material can be understood better if students can try the practical tools independently at home. However, the practicum tools used cannot be learned easily independently without an instructor. Therefore, this undergraduate assignment aims to design and create an Arduino-based independent practicum tool module. This undergraduate assignment begins with reviewing existing similar products, then making design requirements as a DR&O requirement. After that, the undergraduate assignment continued with designing PCB designs using Eagle software. After the PCB design is designed, the design is printed and the module is made and then tested. If the module has been functioning properly, it means that the module is ready to use. However, if the module does not work properly, then the PCB design process will be repeated. The process of designing, manufacturing, and testing is carried out 3 times because there are 3 modules made, namely Module 1, Module 2, and Module 3. These three modules have different scopes. Module 1 is intended for beginners so it only explains the basic functions of Arduino and how to program it, Module 2 describes additional Arduino modules that are already available in the market, and Module 3 is intended for advanced users. Based on the tests that have been carried out, it is revealed that 3 Arduino-based modules have been successfully designed, built, and tested for independent practicum for beginners to advanced users. In addition, these three modules are in accordance with the established DR&O and can be used as a means of learning Arduino independently.
