Topic: Arduino Magicks
This week, we'll be talking about the humble Arduino:
A number of synhakers will be demoing their arduino projects and we'll talk a bit about this awesome little platform for prototyping, hacking, and electronics development.
If you've got a project you'd like to bring in and share, add it to this list:
- Trever Fischer - Line-following ardubot and a cosplay piece that features a stupid arduino trick (simple pulsing LEDs with a small amplifier circuit).
- Ricky and Chris - Ham radio morse code transmitter
- Ken Burns - Attoduino, an idea for an ultra tiny Ardunio board, ideally under 10x10mm. About 1/8 the size of the Arduino Nano and about 1/3 the size of this board: Femtoduino
- Michael - Arduino/motor shield phone "controlled" wheeled platform.
