A typical Arduino microcontroller board is pretty small, about the size of a credit card. This makes it suitable for embedding into all sorts of electronic devices. But it's possible to go even ...

Just to make sure that we’re all tap-dancing to the same drum beat, let’s remind ourselves that Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and ...

Here's an interesting one. FTDI Chip is using Kickstarter to fund an open source reference design for an Arduino UNO compatible board. The NerO is based on the company's FT231X USB UART, and delivers ...

The enhanced capabilities of the XLR8 and Sno platforms is made possible by implementing certain functions as hardware accelerators in the FPGA’s programmable fabric. The enhanced capabilities of the ...

A Swedish software engineer — Johan Kanflo — has made a wireless Arduino clone called AADuino, which is the size of an AA battery. Kanflo explains that the AADuino has an onboard RF module, which fits ...

Why it matters: Electronics, in general, are typically stiff and unbending due to the extensive use of brittle materials. However, one maker seems determined to change that with the 'Flexduino' – a ...

Developers, makers and hobbyists that are searching for a small Arduino Mega clone to help create their next project or make an existing Arduino Mega board project even smaller. Maybe interested in a ...

The concern is that over time, multi-vendor support and the freedom to experiment could be compromised in favor of Qualcomm’s ...

[Oliver] is back with an update to his recent coffee maker hacks. His latest hack allowed him to add a coffee payment system to an off-the-shelf coffee maker without modifying the coffee maker itself.
