A friend of mine is a scientist who does experiments that are very sensitive to air temperature and humidity. The incubator room has a small ceramic heater but the heater’s thermostat was not nearly accurate enough, only able to maintain the temperature within 10-15 degrees. Commercial devices that log temperature and humidity can be quite

[Andrew] wonders why the SerialUSB() function on the Cortex M3-based Arduino Due is so much faster than Serial() on the Uno or Nano, and shares his observations in this short video. He sets up an experiment with a simple sketch on both boards and uses Wireshark to evaluate the results. Data is sent in the USB packets in groups of
