Prototyping with Arduino

Arduino is an open source platform for electronics prototyping, which allows the development of complex devices drew attention, but without having a thorough knowledge of programming, electronics or embedded systems. This platform is designed to be used by designers, artists, hobbyists or anyone interested in creating devices and interactive environments.

I particularly was interested enough by the platform, because of the flexibility, ease and speed with which one can program the Atmel microcontrollers.

So, I'm currently developing several add-ons for the platform, which I'll post here on the blog whenever time permits :)

The idea is that these add-ons come shields the arduino in the future, composed by the hardware (schematic drawing of the circuit board, components) and software (lib that control the shield).

Below, I show some of the most interesting work I've seen with the arduino.

Welcome back :-)

New site www.tiagobarros.org amended. Here you will find information about technology trends, several tutorials and my entire production available online. Classes, How-tos, and more. Some categories that are beyond the central theme of the site but on occasion I like to write about (like music, football and beer) will be on separate pages, different from the homepage, but accessible from the top menu. Good reading.
