I just finished my first composition with the LilyPad Arduino, in the form of a conductive blinky embroidered wall hanging. It generates a little tune that’s changeable by covering the photoresistor. If you’re around Phoenix, you can come see it on Friday night at Cartel Coffee Lab in Tempe.

Just when you thought you had them all, the Arduino mutates yet again -
The new Arduino Nano is the smallest and most versatile Arduino board yet. Designed and manufactured by US-based Gravitech, it has all the functionality of an Arduino Diecimila in a compact, breadboard-ready design. The Nano includes an ATmega168 microcontroller (w/ bootloader), integrated [...] [..] Read complete article

This project called “Flying planter (Fledge)”, uses an Arduino Lilypad controller to tilt a disc to rotate towards wherever it sees sunlight. This would ideally help to save your indoor houseplants from their imminent demise throughout a normal day.

This looks like an interesting project made with an Arduino and a laser pulled from a laser level. There are schematics and a video on the website if you want to try and make one for yourself.
After programming the Arduino, I took out the ATMega168 and wired it into a breadboard along with a 16mhz [...] [..] Read complete article

OK, this isn’t exactly a complicated robot. I really like the simplicity of the build. It would be very easy to change things around or add sensors, since the breadboard is right there on top and it has a lot of extra room.

If you love the Arduino software but find yourself hampered by the included ATmega168 chip’s memory size or pin count, Zach Hoeken has a solution -
Sanguino is a new microcontroller board inspired by the Arduino. We took the biggest baddest 40-pin DIP that Atmel makes and made a board with it. Its based [...] [..] Read complete article

This is a nice Arduino project that uses a Powerball and a sensor to control a spaceship. The game is running in Flash, and it uses an Arduino to receive data from the sensor in the Powerball. I wish there was a little more details on the actual electronics of the build.

I’ll be doing a demo at 11am on Saturday at Maker Faire on embroidering a circuit with conductive thread, LEDs, and a watch battery. Don’t worry if you’ve never picked up a needle and thread before; this beginner’s level demo will show you the basics of embroidery and circuits. I’m very excited to see you [...] [..] Read complete article
