Let the world know what you’re eating for breakfast with an 80’s style vocal synthesizer! This project uses an Arduino to send your Twitter stream to a voice generator chip called the SpeakJet. The setup that I use here can also be extended to other applications where you’d want to translate text into speech, some

Remote visualization of real-time sensor data. This tutorial describes in detail how to use the free SensorMonkey service to push real-time sensor data from an Arduino to a webpage for visualization using Processing.js. No server-side coding or Ethernet shield is required. A standard, run of the mill Arduino will work perfectly. You’ll also need a sensor to
