MEMS evaluation board connects to Raspberry Pi
Farnell element14’s MEMS Sensor Evaluation Board is for developing projects and designs on multiple platforms. The sensor board contains multiple Freescale Xtrinsic sensors including the MPL3115 high-precision pressure sensor, the MAG3110 low-power 3D magnetometer, as well as the MMA8491Q 3-Axis, digital accelerometer making it ideal for applications such as navigation devices, remote controls, wireless controllers, tablet computers or even...
Mouser unboxes the Intel Galileo Development Board
The Intel Galileo Development Board is the first in a new family of Arduino-compatible development boards for those looking to take designs to the next level.
chipKIT ecosystem expanded with Digilent development tools
The Arduino compatible chipKIT ecosystem from Microchip has been expanded to include two new development tools from Digilent, and an embedded cloud software framework. Minimising the the need for users to purchase additional hardware or shields, Digilent’s chipKIT WF32 board integrates with Microchip’s 32-bit PIC32MX695F512L MCU with Full Speed USB 2.0 Host/Device/OTG, its agency-certified MRF24WG0MA Wi-Fi module and an energy-saving ...
Linduino One development tool Arduino-compatible
The Linduino One development tool has been announced today by Linear. The Linduino One development tool is an Arduino-compatible platform for developing and distributing firmware libraries and code for Linear Technology’s SPI and I²C-compatible integrated circuits. Able to interface to more than 300 QuikEval demonstration cards, the Linduino One supports a variety of product types including ADCs, DACs, power monitors, intelligent Hot...
FT121 G-Sensor shield focusses on Arduino-based gaming
Adding to its range of hardware solutions for those working with the Arduino open-source electronics development platform, FTDI Chip has announced the FT121 G-Sensor shield. Focussing on the implementation of Arduino-based gaming systems, the FT121 G-Sensor shield enables such projects to be conceived and subsequently executed simply and rapidly through its USB human interface device (HID) class support.
Arduino Robot Video Tutorial 5: Images and sounds
This video shows you how to use the screen and play sounds on the Arduino Robot's speaker. David and Xun upload the DiscoBot example to show how to navigate through the different sounds using the keypad and the Slideshow example to load different images. Songs and images can be stored on a uSD card.
Arduino, Beaglebone and Freescale Freedom enclosures
Hammond Electronics has today introduced a new series of design-specific moulded enclosures supporting the new types of credit card sized, low cost bare board computers, which, typically running Linux, provide basic functionality across a wide range of applications. While broadly similar in size and shape, each enclosure features differences in the positioning of I/O, power and expansion ports.
Arduino Robot Video Tutorial 4: Following lines, going to the rescue
In this video the IR-array sensor at the bottom of the motor board is used to get the robot to follow a line. The Arduino Robot comes with five infrared sensors that enable it to measure the reflection of infrared light and detect the different qualities of the material underneath.
Expansion board boost for Raspberry Pi
element14 has announced global availability of the Gertduino expansion board for the Raspberry Pi computer. Gertduino is an Arduino-Uno like board that was created by Gert van Loo, the inventor of the Gertboard. Gertduino is Arduino compatible and plugs directly onto the Raspberry Pi.
Arduino Robot Video Tutorial 3: Avoid obstacles, create strategies
In this video the Arduino team will explore how to use different technologies to detect obstacles in the way of the Arduino Robot. The three technologies being tested are: ultrasonic range finders, infrared range finders and a trick using ultrabright white LEDs and LDR sensors.
