LED Microcontroller Debug Module

LED Microcontroller Debug Module

When it comes to debugging a microcontroller circuit, there aren’t a lot of simple options.  Since a microcontroller circuit might have multiple things going on at the same time, measuring voltages with a DMM isn’t an option.  Using an computerized In-Circuit-Debugger solution is expensive and elaborate, and time-consuming to set up.   People often resort to

Turn your Arduino Uno into an USB HID Mididevice

Turn your Arduino Uno into an USB-HID-Mididevice

While building an Arduino Uno based Midi-Controller for Ableton Live, I came across the HIDUINO project ( http://code.google.com/p/hiduino/ ). It allows you to turn your Arduino Uno (or any other device using an AVR-USB chipset like the 8u2) into a driverless HID/Midi device. It’s much more comfortable than using a software based serial to midi

Hack the Nabaztag using Arduino

Hack the Nabaztag using Arduino

This is a Nabaztag – Armenian, apparently, for “hare”. It’s an adorable bunny rabbit packed with sensors and communication devices…. and it’s completely unusable. There’s people who wrote some interesting software to hack it, and I applaud them: however, I could never actually get my Karotz (Nabaztag’s third incarnation) through the arduous initialization. So, to
