Arduino art show this Saturday in NYC
Alicia Gibb has curated a show of Arduino-based artwork, based on the work of her master’s thesis, and it’ll be this Saturday in NYC! I’ll have an interactive embroidery piece in the show, and head over to the NYC Resistor site for a sneak peek at the work. Art, Design, and the Arduino: a lineage […]
In the Maker Shed: Arduino Nano 3.0
The Arduino Nano is a surface mount breadboard embedded version with integrated USB. It is small, complete, and breadboard friendly. This new version 3.0 comes with ATMEGA328 which offers more programming and data memory space, the power LED has been moved to the top, and the pin labels have been rearranged for easier use. It is two layers, making it easier to hack and more affordable.

New in the Maker Shed: Arduino 7-Segment Shield
What’s got four 7-segment displays (and driver), a temperature sensor, a PWM RGB LED, and plugs into an Arduino? Why it’s the Arduino 7-Segment Shield! This is a 7-segment shield for Arduino NG/Dicimila/Duemilanove and many Freeduino boards. It has tons of cool features! Fully assembled and tested! NOTE: Does not include the Arduino board.
