I had cause to have a closer look at some Arduino inputs – it is that fascinating weather station again. It transpires that some Arduino inputs are better at tolerating slowly-changing inputs than ...

This module makes it easy to accept user input from the serial interface, displaying the input buffer in real time. void print(const char *const c_str); Print the ...

Fun little project for a simple scrolling input method using a potentiometer and a few buttons. Given that the Arduino Uno R3 I am using cannot communicate with the PC as an HID device unless the user ...

There is a boring part of every computer introduction class that shows how a computer is made up of input, output, and processing. Maybe it wouldn’t be so boring if the input device was a nunchuck.

Arduino Micro has some extra leds that it is tricky to programme. Like almost all Arduinos, has a built-in led – the green one on the left in the photo. And it has a pair of yellow leds – called TX ...

The long-awaited Arduino Due just hit the market, replacing the 8-bit, 16MHz brain of the popular Uno microcontroller prototyping platform with a 32-bit, 84MHz processor, while augmenting inputs and ...

So I've had 16' of RGB LED's attached to an arduino attached to my PC. Just for 5V power and the occasional "control" by uploading a new sketch. But then I saw this and am intrigued as it will allow ...

The Raspberry Pi and other similar Linux-based single board computers simplify many projects. However, one issue with Linux is that it doesn’t like being turned off abruptly. Things have gotten better ...
