This is a very interesting idea. http://spectrum.ieee.org/geek-life/hands-on/diy-musclememory-programmer Posted from WordPress for Android Video: DIY: Haptic Gloves Teach Touch Typing →

When you have a great service like IFTTT that you can interface with many ready available cloud services or commercial hardware, the next idea is how to connect your own device (Arduino, Raspeberry Pi, etc..) to this service. Here are some pointers to ideas how to interface your own hardware to IFTTT: Pushbullet’s IFTTT Channel →

This is a very cool service I found when looking at news on Internet of Things (IoT): IFTTT (short for “If This Then That”) is a service that enables users to connect different web applications (e.g., Facebook, Evernote, Weather, Dropbox, etc.) together through simple conditional statements known as “Recipes”. If This Then That (IFTTT) is a →

There are very many cool Arduino projects and project sites in Internet (make Google search to see). Here are some interesting links to check out: Arduino Projects at indestructables Arduino user projects Arduino Project Ideas Top 40 Arduino Projects of the Web Arduino Rising: 10 Amazing Projects People Are Doing With The Tiny Microcontroller Electronics →

I had ordered HC-05 Bluetooth adapter for Arduino. After some frustration with some failed attempts to do the communication with it, I left it waiting for new motivation. Then last week I happened to see Triggering Remote Fireworks with an Arduino and an Android article that pointed to ArduDroid: A Simple 2-Way Bluetooth-based Android Controller →

Arduino Leonardo is a micro-controller board based on the ATmega32u4. This board form factor and functionality is quite similar to Arduino UNO (7.1 cm x 5.3 cm x 1.5 cm ; 20 g) , with the exception that the USB interface is built into the micro-controller itself instead of using external serial-USB converter IC on →

I wrote about Visual Programming for Arduino last year, and now I found a new tool that I did not know about that time. Mind+ is a flow-based visual programming software for Arduino.  It is designed for easy learning electronics and computers. Mind+ sells DIY kits based on electronics blocks and Mind+ software. The Mind+ software →

When testing with Arduino circuits, it is often useful to see digital signal states on different pins. It is easy to measure single signal pin state with multimeter, but when you want to monitor several pins visually you need something else. One useful option is to use LEDs connected to pins to show their state. →

The Arduino Ethernet Shield allows you to connects Arduino to your local LAN or Internet with Ethernet connection.. Just plug Arduino Ethernet Shield module onto your Arduino board, connect it to your network with an RJ45 cable. The original Arduino Ethernet Shield is based on the Wiznet W5100 Ethernet chip. Arduino IDE comes with example →

I mentioned Fritzing two years ago and now I find coming back to use this software. Fritzing is an open source software initiative that was to support designers and artists ready to move from physical prototyping to actual product. Today Fritzing is an open-source hardware initiative that makes electronics accessible as a creative material for →
