The open source Arduino Project was started long back in 2003 as a program for students to help them tinker with sensors and their applications without spending tons of money. Over the course of time, this open source platform evolved and facilitated the launch of various versions of the Arduino hardware. Adding another chapter to […]
I am not a professional, nor am I particularly well versed in embedded programming or Atmel products, including AVR. These materials started as personal notes that I curbed into instructive materials in order to be shared with others because I found some information hard to collect when it’s spread about online in the form of […]
Framework for Digiduck Development Boards running ATTiny85 processors and micronucleus bootloader! Roadmap: Plan to implement a command for Duckyspark translation within the framework. Requirements: – ATTiny85 or other compatible “Digispark” Development Board(s) – DigiSpark Drivers (If you can use it with arduino you should be fine.) – OSX or MacOS – ArduinoIDE with Digispark Library […]
Who doesn’t want to get rid of those bulky buttons and tangled wires while working on your embedded projects? Arduino Remote Control Apps on Android provides a Graphical User Interface(GUI) to control Arduino with ease. Introduced in the year 2003, the Arduino platform quickly caught the eye of open source community and electronic hobbyists due to […]
Short Bytes: After killing its Joule, Edison, and Galileo compute modules, Intel has axed two more products. The company has announced that it’s discontinuing Intel Curie module and Arduino 101’s manufacturing. The final orders for Curie-based Arduino 101 could be made until September 17, 2017. The online support for Curie will also last through September 17, 2017. […]
Short Bytes: A Chelmsford-based startup is running a crowdfunding campaign for µduino, which is possibly the smallest Arduino board around, on Crowd Supply. With the ATMEGA32U4 chip, µduino has 20 I/O ports. It can be used for wearables and small-sized projects. Fith the increasing innovation in the field of the easy-to-program development boards, we are witnessing new components on […]
Short Bytes: To make the development of Arduino and Raspberry Pi easier, XOD programming language and IDE is coming soon to GitHub. It’s a visual programming language that will allow you to build programs with nodes, which are blocks that represent some physical device operating. Within one week, XOD is entering private alpha and interested […]
Short Bytes: Sometimes, using a pre-built Arduino board in a project is overkill, or just oversized. The ATtiny85 is an inexpensive but surprisingly capable microcontroller that can help with reducing the footprint of your project. Here’s how you can program an ATtiny for use in your project. The Arduino platform is an amazing tool for learning, […]
Short Bytes: Every hobby has its own milestone projects like the Hello World introduction in programming. The Arduino community likes to start people off with the blinking LED light. But what could we do with 64 LED lights in a matrix? We can display all sorts of things like numbers, letters, and even simple pictures. […]
Short Bytes: Mike, the CEO of the Useless Duck Company, has created an Arduino-powered door lock which locks the door automatically when you open an incognito window in your web browser. In a YouTube video, Mike shows how this awesome tech works. We always work hard to maintain privacy during our alone time when our […]
Short Bytes: Embracing Arduino’s spirit of open source, Johan Kanflo has created AAduino and shared its details on GitHub. AAduino is a miniature Arduino-compatible board that is just the size of an AA battery. Arduino is one of the most popular open source development boards that is used by DIYers and makers from all around […]
Short Bytes: The Arduino project has finally released Arduino IDE for Raspberry and other single-board ARM computers. Combining Raspberry Pi with Arduino is a recipe for great electronics projects and fun-filled DIYing. If you’re into electronics DIY stuff, you’ve probably worked with Raspberry Pi and Arduino. While they could be used to solve similar problems at […]
A great news for Makers and Arduino lovers: Microsoft announced a new partnership with Arduino to make their Windows as First ever Arduino certified operating system. Now you can enjoy Arduino hardware with Windows software as an open-source library. In Build Developer Conference 2015, Microsoft started a new venture with Arduino to use Arduino as […]
