What to expect from the Weekend?
- Getting beginners kickstarted is not the main point of attention this weekend
- let's say you take something you want to work on, and be assertive (ask for explanation when you're stuck)
- so feel welcome, but take your swimming aid, as there's nobody going to save you from drowning today...
- No nicely prepared presentation/slideshow
- Only ad-hoc know-how share + your friend google + people running around which can help you if you ask for it!
- on the timing: a beginners startup will follow, once we got this organised -- want to help ? leave your name + coords here: (ptr_, ...)
- sunday we'll have an excursion to the scha{a,e}rbeek flee market (on the marche matinal site) -- around noon (let's say 11-13h)
CDC-232
CDC-232 creates a virtual COM port on PC that doesn't have real RS- 232C port. The goal is to port this code to the Arduino (some code here contains an HEX file for atmega168).
Infrared
Get the infrared working on the Arduino (like here or here), and send back signals over the USB bus in the form of HID (simulating a keyboard).
LCD
Motor controlled wifi antenna
Jef&Mariette
design a simple pcb which can enlighten the next summercampsite...
