Trimbitas writes – “This is my first serious (the first one was a one LED blinker) AVR project :) I searched the Internet for a cool looking and easy to build project with ATTiny2313 and I end up on this page, it was a really nice project to start with so I made a list […]
Tod has a great background and comparison of the Arduino and the Basic Stamp, he writes – “Parallax’s Basic Stamp is the mainstay for hobbyists wanting to add intelligence to everyday devices. A new system called Arduino provides the benefits of the Basic Stamp at a greatly reduced cost, increased speed, and is entirely open-source.” […]
Peter writes in with this neat looking DIY synth… – “You’ve seen plenty of DIY circuits for building a homemade analog synth. Here’s your chance to build a fully digital emulation you can hack yourself. The result is a synth that’s as full-featured as many commercial hardware models, but with a unique architecture and total […]
B0j3 posted up a nice protoboard in the MAKE Instructables group – “Since I have a lot of ideas about different usages of microcontrollers it always happens I have to build basic microcontroller setup (microcontroller with oscilator). Finaly I decided to make a small (or should I say mini) protoboard for PIC 12f675 (which I […]
Rob writes – “You can attach an SD camera memory card to any homebrew DIY project that has a few I/O pins, using ordinary connectors you probably have right now. Step-by-step photos (using WRT54G wireless router as an example) are provided.” [via] – Link.
Todbot writes – “Ever since Bluetooth adapters for Roombas appeared, I’ve wanted to control my Roomba with a cell phone. All my recent phones have had Bluetooth. But getting a devkit for a phone was expensive and phone-specific. Trying to develop J2ME (aka “JavaME”) applications for cell phones has been a mess, especially for non-Windows […]
Scienceprog writes – “Piconomic Design company has decided to release condensed course of 8 bit AVR microcontrollers by example. This is good start to people who want to start or switch from different MCU platform. They have introduced simple development board which can be built abd used freely for personal use.” – Link. More AVR: […]
