Pois é, um projeto realizado para Salvador e exibido pra todo mundo por nada mais nada menos que Carlinhos Brown durante o Carnaval de 2011. Esse é o EletroAxé, uma combinação de sensores, 10 no total, espalhados numa roupa especial. Ao ser tocado cada sensor dispara um comando diferente pro Arduino que interpreta esses comandos e os identifica como sons de uma percussão. Segundo o próprio Brown, "isso é revolucionário".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/drumsuit-custom.jpg?w=470&amp;amp;h=704" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/drumsuit-custom.jpg?w=470&amp;amp;h=704" width="266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe frameborder="0" height="337" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/21531156" width="600"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[&lt;a href="http://www.lucaswerthein.com/?p=187"&gt;Página do projeto&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kylemcdonald/sets/72157626059197671/with/5521241747/"&gt;fotos do desenvolvimento&lt;/a&gt; via &lt;a href="http://hackaday.com/2011/03/31/the-electroaxe-full-body-percussion-suit/"&gt;Hack A Day&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*** EDIT ***&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Olha só essa matéria que vi no GizmodoBR.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.gizmodo.com.br/conteudo/garoto-transforma-calca-jeans-em-kit-de-bateria"&gt;Garoto transforma calça jeans em kit de bateria&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;Pois é, a mesma coisa que foi feita no projeto EletroAxé só que numa versão para calças e escondida.

O bom desse projeto é que este dispositivo pode ser usado pra criar imagens panorâmicas bastante interessantes, ou quem sabe até imagens circulares.

Sabe aquela luz indicativa, normalmente vista em estúdios de gravação, escrito No Ar que se acende quando está acontecendo alguma gravação? Pois é. O que o pessoal do Make:Online fez foi criar uma dessas que é ligada automaticamente toda vez que eles iniciam uma transmissão via UStream. Fora isso, o dispositivo se comunica via XBee com uma central (a responsável por determinar se a transmissão foi iniciada ou não) que não necessita de um computador atrelado, reduzindo bastante a tranqueira utilizada.

Para criar o labirinto ele utilizou o mesmo material que utilizei no &lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/progress-i.html"&gt;Arduitter&lt;/a&gt;, MDF, e, entre outras partes, 2 servos para realizar a movimentação do mesmo.

Um ponto marcante sobre esse primeiro projeto é que ele utilizava somente uma fita de LEDs e foi aí que modifiquei um pouco o código disponibilizado para que o projeto pudesse passar a utilizar duas fitas de LEDs RGB.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dito isso, me deparei com este outro projeto também de Ambient Lighting que usa duas fitas de LEDs RGB (nenhuma ligação com o código que disponibilizei), baseado no &lt;a href="http://amblone.com/"&gt;Amblone&lt;/a&gt; (Ambilight Clone). O Amblone por sua vez defende a utilização de três fitas de LEDs (duas, uma em casa lateral, e uma superior). Christian Pigeon, o responsável pelo projeto, não o Amblone, mas o que se baseou no Amblone, iria utilizar no seu trabalho um Arduino Duemilanove, que tem somente 6 pinos PWM, que são utilizados para controlar o R, o G e o B de cada uma das duas fitas. Portanto foi necessário fazer uma adaptação do código do Amblone para utilizar somente duas fitas. Vale a pena dá uma conferida no esquema eletrônico e nós códigos disponibilizados.

O projeto é bem interessante e se baseia em 8 sinos que podem ser tocados pela internet. Cada sino corresponde a uma nota musical e a interface criada por eles permite que você crie o seu próprio som ou ouça sons pré-configurados. Controlados por um Arduino conectados a solenóides, a aplicação permite ainda que você veja a sua música sendo tocada ao vivo, via stream.

O que nada mais é do que identificar a cor predominante na tela, seja do monitor ou da televisão, e utilizar esta cor para iluminar a parte de trás do mesmo. O efeito visual é bem legal, deve ser interessante assistir a um filme numa televisão com este atrativo.&lt;br /&gt;Segue o &lt;a href="http://siliconrepublic.blogspot.com/2011/02/arduino-based-pc-ambient-lighting.html"&gt;projeto do royboy&lt;/a&gt; utilizando Arduino para simular este mesmo efeito. Bom salientar que o projeto utiliza somente uma fonte de iluminação e o Ambilight ao que me parece tem duas fontes de iluminação, uma em cada lado da tela. Eu gostei do projeto e acabei adaptando em Java para utilizar as duas laterais da tela. Como eu não tenho nada de LEDs RGB ao alcance para testes, vou disponibilizar o código e quem tiver interesse em utilizá-lo pode ficar a vontade. Deixa nos comentários um link pro seu projeto que eu referencio ele aqui.

Resolvi então traduzir o artigo pra o Português Brasileiro e disponibilizar aqui no blog para que mais pessoas pudessem ter a oportunidade de ler o que uma pessoa que se interessa, trabalha e acredita no Arduino tem a dizer sobre esta plataforma de desenvolvimento que vem numa crescente bastante significativa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;m:smallfrac m:val="off"&gt;    &lt;m:dispdef&gt;    &lt;m:lmargin m:val="0"&gt;    &lt;m:rmargin m:val="0"&gt;    &lt;m:defjc m:val="centerGroup"&gt;    &lt;m:wrapindent m:val="1440"&gt;    &lt;m:intlim m:val="subSup"&gt;    &lt;m:narylim m:val="undOvr"&gt;   &lt;/m:narylim&gt;&lt;/m:intlim&gt; &lt;/m:wrapindent&gt;   &lt;/m:defjc&gt;&lt;/m:rmargin&gt;&lt;/m:lmargin&gt;&lt;/m:dispdef&gt;&lt;/m:smallfrac&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Por Que o Arduino Venceu e Por Que Ele Está Aqui pra Ficar por Phillip Torrone&lt;br /&gt;Traduzido por Raphael Cerqueira&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Todo mês estarei postando algumas colunas do tipo editorial aqui no Make:Online. Estas colunas têm a intenção de fazer você pensar, promover discussões e debates e talvez te enlouquecer um pouco. Minha primeira coluna é chamada “Por Que o Arduino Venceu e Por Que Ele Está Aqui pra Ficar”.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Dentro de uma semana estarei recebendo um representante de uma grande fabricante de chips para me mostrar uma outra plataforma “Arduino-like”, também conhecida como “Arduino killer” (nota do tradutor: a matadora do Arduino numa tradução literal). Esta é uma situação que ocorre muito por aqui; todo mês tem uma nova empresa ou pessoa que quer fazer o próximo Arduino. Eles normalmente entram em contato comigo pela minha atenção dada ao Arduino ao longo dos anos, pela minha contribuição em fazer o Arduino chegar ao mundo dos criadores e o fato de usar ele diariamente no meu trabalho na Adafruit. Acho que ele teve um impacto impressionante nas pessoas que têm a eletrônica como hobby, talvez como o computador pessoal há alguns anos (Homebrew Computer Club, etc). Existem mais de 100.000 Arduinos no mercado, e, pelas minhas estimativas, muito mais quando você adiciona os derivados (aproximadamente 150.000 em 2/2011). Dentro dos próximos 5 ou 10 anos, o Arduino será usado em toda escola para ensinar eletrônica e computação física – essa é a minha previsão. Não tem mais volta.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Na maioria das vezes estes encontros terminam com uma lista de coisas a serem consideradas se eles quiserem desbancar o Arduino, e é isso – eles normalmente nunca o fazem. Existem alguns artigos sobre o Arduino, com uma história boa, mas eu quero focar no que eu considero o por que do Arduino ter “vencido”. Mas, dizer algo que vai ser o padrão é arriscado – é também muito cedo, certo? Dizer que algo ganhou irá causar também algum debate, e está tudo bem – nosso sistema de comentários está funcionando bem agora. Eu acho que ele ganhou, vou te falar o por que e por que ele está aqui pra ficar. Se você está pensando em fazer algo para desbancar o Arduino, eu já te entendi – aqui está a sua receita. Vamos por a mão na massa!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;O que é o Arduino?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Vamos começar em como a equipe do Arduino o define:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;“Arduino é uma plataforma de prototipação eletrônica open-source baseada na flexibilidade e na facilidade de uso de seu hardware e software. É direcionado para artistas, designers, hobistas e qualquer um interessado na criação de objetos ou ambientes interativos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;“O Arduino pode perceber o ambiente recebendo como entrada dados de uma variedade de sensores e pode interagir com o mesmo controlando luzes, motores e outros atuadores. O microcontrolador na placa é programado utilizando a linguagem de programação Arduino (baseada em Wiring) e o ambiente de desenvolvimento Arduino (baseado em Processing). Projetos com Arduino podem ser tanto stand-alone ou podem se comunicar com outros softwares rodando em um computador (ex. Flash, Processing, MaxMSP).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;“As placas podem ser construídas manualmente ou serem compradas pré-montadas; o software pode ser baixado de graça. Os documentos de referência do hardware (arquivos CAD) estão disponíveis sob licença open-source, você é livre para adaptá-los de acordo com suas necessidades.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;O “o que” é ainda bem vago e essa é a força do Arduino. É a cola que as pessoas usam para conectar as tarefas. A melhor maneira de descrever o Arduino é através de alguns exemplos:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quer que a cafeteira envie uma mensagem no Twitter quando o café esteja pronto? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quer fazer almofadas acenderem? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Que tal receber um alerta no seu telefone quando uma correspondência chegar na sua caixa de correio? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quer uma cadeira de rodas do professor Xavier do X-Men que fale e disponibilize bebidas? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quer fazer um canhão que acende igualzinho ao do personagem do Mega Man para o seu filho? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quer fazer seu próprio monitor cardíaco para andar de bicicleta que registre os dados num cartão de memória? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol;"&gt;&lt;span style="font: 7pt &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quer fazer um robô que desenha no chão ou que ande na neve? Arduino.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Para alguém que não saiba eletrônica, ou entenda de microcontroladores, isso soa bem interessante e você desejará se juntar ao clube. Este é o tipo de coisa que crianças querem fazer – você pode até mesmo fazê-las aprender algumas coisas no processo. Essas são as coisas das quais os projetos de ciência são feitos, as coisas sobre as quais sites de aparatos tecnológicos falam. O que todos elas têm em comum? São idéias que normalmente não se tornariam realidade, coisas que nós simplesmente idealizamos. Mas agora estas idéias tornaram-se reais e muito provavelmente não pelas mãos de um engenheiro.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Isso por si só já é grande coisa por que engenheiros tendem a criar plataformas para outros engenheiros, não para artistas, gente esquisita ou crianças que querem conectar as coisas para compartilhar uma idéia. A equipe do Arduino não é feita de engenheiros elétricos na sua essência. Eles são designers, artistas, professores e (até onde posso falar) viciados em tecnologia (isso é um elogio, espero não ter ofendido). O Arduino é basicamente um projeto italiano, e, todo ano leio outro artigo sobre como a Itália está lutando para encontrar o seu Google, quando eles já o têm. É o Arduino – eles só não perceberam isso ainda.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Se você olhar em exemplos de projetos feitos com o Arduino vai perceber que os criadores estão mais preocupados com o “o que” e não com o “como” na eletrônica. As pessoas que gostam de encrencar com o sucesso do Arduino adoram dizer que o Arduino não ensina os fundamentos da eletrônica. “Que nada! Isso não é eletrônica de verdade.”, dizem eles, “É muito fácil!” Sim, é. Se você quiser fazer um LED piscar ou um motor de mover sem usar o Arduino, boa sorte se você for um artista ou um designer. Estamos falando de dias para fazer tudo funcionar corretamente (se funcionar). Claro, é bom impressionar os outros com aquele livro pesadão da Arte da Eletrônica, mas para todos os outros, eles só querem fazer um LED piscar para a sua fantasia de Halloween.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Acho que meu exemplo favorito de como partes da antiga comunidade voltada para microcontroladores &amp;nbsp;viu o Arduino vem da AVR Freaks (nota do tradutor: algo como Loucos pelo AVR), a comunidade oficial dedicada ao processador AVR (o mesmo utilizado no Arduino). Você poderia pensar que eles adoraram toda essa atenção, trazendo os microcontroladores AVR às massas. Mas muitos na comunidade AVR Freaks não gostam desses não-engenheiros com seus projetos de arte esquisitos mexendo na sua hierarquia. Minha citação favorita (e eu quero isto numa camiseta) é:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;“Arduino: Programação no mole para fumadores de maconha” – &lt;u&gt;ArnoldB, AVRfreaks.net&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Esta atitude errada na verdade ajudou o Arduino por que ela contribuiu para que os fãs do Arduino criassem a sua própria comunidade. E, uma comunidade que, posso dizer, é mais inclusiva e se afasta dessa visão de superioridade.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;O Arduino é simples, mas não tão simples. É construído na idéia de que estudantes usarão ele para fazer alguma coisa; receber dados de sensores, escrever algum código, fazer algo com o conjunto. Talvez eles nem mesmo escrevam o código, eles copiam e colam para iniciar. Ninguém vai perder a mão ou trazer o estúdio ao chão somente por experimentar.Um dos membros da equipe do Arduino ensina designers e artistas – todo dia a plataforma vem sendo construída e melhorada pelo “aprenda fazendo” e pelo compartilhamento de código – esses designers e artistas estão usando Macs e trabalhando em Processing (o parente mais velho do Arduino).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;OK, então tá tudo bem consufo, um artista gosta de festivais, e é por isso que a história do DIY (nota do tradutor: do inglês Do It Yourself, Faça Você Mesmo) é um sucesso? Não, tem muito mais! Vamos ser um pouco mais específicos:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;A IDE roda em Macs, Linux e Windows&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;A IDE roda no Mac, Linux e Windows e é completamente open-source. A IDE é o onde você programa o Arduino – é baseada em Processing (uma linguagem de programação gráfica e de desenvolvimento de sistemas popular entre artistas e designers), que está por aí faz um tempo. Roda em Mac e Linux e não somente no Windows, e, isso importa se você quer ser inclusivo. Tem um grande suporte por trás, o kit de ferramentas gcc, e sobre ela temos o Java, desta forma a portabilidade é fácil e os bugs podem ser encontrados e corrigidos facilmente. Existem pessoas espertas o suficiente trabalhando na IDE para mantê-la forte. Se você quer que as pessoas façam coisas bacanas utilizando a sua plataforma, ela deve rodar sem problemas em Mac e também em Linux.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;O driver funciona no Mac, Linux e Windows&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Novamente, como a IDE, os drivers para utilizar a placa funcionam no Mac, Linux e Windows e os drivers FTDI “simplesmente funcionam”. Se meter com comunicação serial, uma bem conhecida (mas lenta) interface foi uma boa sacada. Com certeza HID e coisas customizadas são bacana e tudo mais, e podem ser muito mais rápidas, mas o chip serial funciona e pode ser usado pra debug e programação, e facilmente ser integrado a outros softwares desenvolvidos em Java, Python, Perl, C, .NET, BASIC, Delphi, MAX/MSP, PureData, Processing, entre outros.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Bibliotecas, faça as coisas faceis de forma simples e as dificieis também&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Existem milhares de bibliotecas orientadas a objetos para fazer coisas complexas, como escrever em SD Cards, telas de LCD, manipular dados do GPS, e existem também bibliotecas para fazer coisas simples, como debugar botões. Nós já escrevemos códigos para configuração de UART umas 10 vezes para 10 chips e francamente, nós estamos cansados. É muito melhor chamar somente Serial.begin(9600) e ter os registros organizados para nós.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;É leve&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Possui um bem testado e conhecido compilador (nós até nos atrevemos a dizer que que o avr-gcc é o compilador padrão para AVR). Não é interpretado como .NET ou BASIC. É rápido, é pequeno, é leve e você pode usar os arquivos HEX para programar chips novos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sensores&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;O Arduino realmente deslanchou por que tem entrada analógica para digital, em outras palavras, você pode receber dados de entrada dos sensores como luz, temperatura, som ou qualquer outra coisa usando sensores de baixo custo encontrados facilmente por aí e utilizá-los com o Arduino sem mais problemas. Ele também tem uma interface SPI e I2C para sensores digitais. Isso cobre cerca de 99% dos sensores do mercado. Você não pode fazer isso tão facilmente com outras plataformas – é completamente bizarro ver uma BeagleBoard (ótimo produto) com o Arduino plugado somente para receber entrada de dados dos sensores.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Simples, mas não tão simples&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Muitas placas de desenvolvimento são absurdamente complexas com um monte de partes que podem ser adicionadas como LCD, LEDs, displays de 7 segmentos, botões, etc, para mostrar tudo que ela pode fazer. O Arduino tem o básico. Quer mais? Adicione um shield. Existem centenas de shields para o Arduino, de LCD a Wifi, sendo uma decisão do usuário adicioná-los ou não. Os shields adicionam funcionalidade facilmente e existem incentivos para que eles sejam feitos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Não é feito por um fabricante de chips&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;A placa não foi desenvolvida por uma fabricante de chips. Por que isso é importante? Fabricantes de chips geralmente querem mostrar como seus produtos são diferentes e para isso adicionam coisas estranhas para diferenciá-los. O Arduino defende o que é comum entre os microcontroladores e não o que é diferente. Isto significa que o Arduino é a plataforma ideal para iniciantes – tudo que você pode fazer com o Arduino você pode fazer com outros microcontroladores, e o conhecimento básico será mantido por um bom tempo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Baixo Custo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Você pode ter um Arduino por $30 (nota do tradutor: cerca de R$50,00) e talvez veja Arduinos de $20 (nota do tradutor: cerca de R$34,00) em breve.&amp;nbsp; Muitas placas de desenvolvimento chegam aos $50 (nota do tradutor: R$ 86,00) e podem facilmente chegar a mais de $100 (R$ 170,00) , apesar de estarmos vendo que as empresas perceberam que compensa mais ter uma estratégia de vendas mais adequada.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Open Source&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Apesar de sem bom que o Arduino seja open source, e o uso comercial é permitido se você fizer um clone, não é a razão principal , e é por isso que este item está próximo do fim da lista. Porém, não estou dizendo que não é importante. Produtos derivados podem ser criados sem pagar ou pedir nada a ninguém. É open source, o que significa que qualquer empresa ou escola pode usar sem ter que pagar nenhuma licença por pessoa. Não existem riscos de ser descontinuado ou que o software suma para sempre. Se você quiser uma nova funcionalidade é só gastar um tempo criando-a. Quando centenas de pessoas têm uma pequena parte em alguma coisa elas se importam mais. Mais alguém ainda discute se software open source é uma boa idéia?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Por isso que ele ganhou (ou pelo menos por que eu acho que ele ganhou). Não existe outra plataforma que faça isso. Algumas chegam perto (como o Netduino, uma ótima plataforma para um nincho específico), mas ainda tem mais algumas coisas a serem feitas. Você pode estar concordando comigo nestes pontos, ou você pode estar soprando de raiva pensando em como FPGAs (nota do tradutor: da Wikipedia - Um FPGA é um dispositivo semicondutor que é largamente utilizado para o processamento de informações digitais) são muito melhores. De qualquer forma, a não ser que você preencha todos estes pontos na sua plataforma, você não está pronto para competir com o Arduino. Especialmente se você for chamá-la de Arduino Killer.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Por que o Arduino está aqui pra ficar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Não existe uma barreira monetária, é filosófica. É preciso se arriscar e pensar fora da caixa. Fabricantes de chips precisam exibir seus chips – elas não ligam para suporte para Mac, ou escrever linhas e mais linhas de código, bibliotecas ou IDEs. Fabricantes de chips são (historicamente) as responsáveis por criar as plataformas. Nós veremos algumas das grandes empresas encher o mercado de hardware subsidiado para bater os $30 do Arduino, mas isso não muda nada se o suporte e qualidade do Arduino permaneçam lá em cima.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Porque mais o Arduino está aqui pra ficar? A comunidade. Como você consegue que mais 100.000 pessoas pulem de um navio? Você não consegue. Para chegar perto disso você vai precisar desenvolver algo como o Arduino, dar suporte aos seus shields e acessórios e escrever toneladas de código (algo que as fabricantes de chips detestam fazer). Um ótimo software para diversos sistemas, várias bibliotecas, drivers que funcionam, simples, baixo custo e open source. E quer saber do que mais? Acho que isso é o que a equipe do Arduino realmente quer. Eles são viciados em tecnologia – eles querem ver outras plataformas com os mesmos ideais – esse é o jogo que eles estão jogando. E eu acho que é o que todos nós queremos, seja ele chamado de Arduino ou não.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Se você quiser superá-los, você vai precisar mudar as suas convicções e se tornar eles. A melhor solução para usuários é a que realmente já ganhou e está aqui pra ficar. Vida longa ao Rei Arduino!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;[&lt;a href="http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2011/02/why-the-arduino-won-and-why-its-here-to-stay.html"&gt;Página do artigo&lt;/a&gt; via &lt;a href="http://www.adafruit.com/blog/2011/02/10/why-the-arduino-won-and-why-it%E2%80%99s-here-to-stay-new-feature-on-make"&gt;Adaruit&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Bom pessoal, é isso.

Mas sim, se o post está em português, por que High-Five está em inglês? Boa pergunta. E a resposta é simplesmente o fato de eu não saber como traduzir isso para o português. Portanto, para quem não sabe o que é um High-Five, aqui tem um&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_five"&gt; link para a explicação segundo a Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt; (em inglês). Ou, para os mais preguiçosos é só olhar a imagem abaixo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.esquire.com/media/cm/esquire/images/high-five-0808-lg-76258126.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://www.esquire.com/media/cm/esquire/images/high-five-0808-lg-76258126.jpg" width="256" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;High-Five&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;Ou, ao estilo Jackass, o High-Five é:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;object height="385" width="480"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/O5VkwlSBPJQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=pt_BR"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/O5VkwlSBPJQ?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=pt_BR" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mas sim, chega de enrolação. &lt;b style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://eliskipp.com/"&gt;Eli  Skipp&lt;/a&gt; resolveu criar uma luva que emite o som de uma explosão ao realizar o, tão bem explicado anteriormente, High-Five.

Uma coisa boa é que não é sempre o mesmo som que é ouvido, com uma lista pré-definida de padrões, para cada novo tweet encontrado, uma nova combinação dos instrumentos é ouvida.

Bom, nada novo quanto a isso não fosse a possibilidade de controlar até 12 servos ao mesmo tempo. Brian desenvolveu um código escalável que permite não só, como na demonstração em vídeo, controlar 4 servos mas 12 deles.Ele escreveu um script em Python utilizando a pyserial que se comunica com o Arduino via serial. Para demonstração ele adicionou um joystick ao esquema e disponibilizou o resultado em vídeo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/arduino-multi-servo-control.jpg?w=470&amp;amp;h=352" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="298" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/arduino-multi-servo-control.jpg?w=470&amp;amp;h=352" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[&lt;a href="http://principialabs.com/arduino-python-4-axis-servo-control/"&gt;Página do projeto&lt;/a&gt; via &lt;a href="http://hackaday.com/2010/11/24/interface-up-to-12-servos-using-arduino/"&gt;Hack A Day&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-6901578743167427077?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/6901578743167427077/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/11/offtopicpt-br-arduino-e-servos.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/6901578743167427077'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/6901578743167427077'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/11/offtopicpt-br-arduino-e-servos.html' title='[OFF_TOPIC/pt-BR] Arduino e servos'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-7803292247364317449</id><published>2010-11-22T07:35:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-11-22T07:35:40.970-03:00</updated><title type='text'>[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] Joystick com Arduino e Java</title><content type='html'>Controlando código Java com Arduino e um joystick. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/arduino-joystick-java.jpg?w=470&amp;amp;h=352" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="298" src="http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/arduino-joystick-java.jpg?w=470&amp;amp;h=352" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Arduino Joystick&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;[&lt;a href="http://quequero.org/Arduino_Joystick"&gt;Página do projeto&lt;/a&gt; via &lt;a href="http://hackaday.com/2010/11/19/arduino-java-joystick/"&gt;Hack A Day&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-7803292247364317449?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/7803292247364317449/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/11/off-topicpt-br-joystick-com-arduino-e.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/7803292247364317449'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/7803292247364317449'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/11/off-topicpt-br-joystick-com-arduino-e.html' title='[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] Joystick com Arduino e Java'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-2427513194791930722</id><published>2010-11-19T08:24:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-11-19T16:47:39.218-03:00</updated><title type='text'>[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] aJson</title><content type='html'>Que tal manipular dados no Arduino com Json? &lt;a href="http://interactive-matter.org/how-to/ajson-arduino-json-library/"&gt;aJson&lt;/a&gt; to the rescue.

So first of all the next picture represents the message packet of the protocol, it has 6 bytes described below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="60" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TL3Y5v72YwI/AAAAAAAAAKw/eLF0PH-oRRo/s400/ProtocolPacket.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Protocol packet&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TL3Y5v72YwI/AAAAAAAAAKw/eLF0PH-oRRo/s1600/ProtocolPacket.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And here'a sequence diagram that represents the exchange of messages in a situation where the first reply is lost. We can see that the transmitter then retransmit the same message, in this case the receiver realizes it is the same message it received a while ago and sends a reply again, this time succesflly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="346" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TL3ZvQnjucI/AAAAAAAAAK0/fURSQBdt1Es/s400/ProtocolSequenceDiagram.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Protocol sequece diagram&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TL3ZvQnjucI/AAAAAAAAAK0/fURSQBdt1Es/s1600/ProtocolSequenceDiagram.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I hope it helps in the understanding and will be of great help for other who wish to implement it in other languages. I ask you guys to let me know of any doubts and any criticism (hope it's written right) will be welcome.&lt;br /&gt;So, for those interessed, i'm working now in a second version of it using CRC16 for error detection instead of checksum.

After a while using Radio Frequency Links in some projects i realized that many messages are lost and it requires you to send them over and over again until it reaches the destiny and does what it is supposed to do. I then decided to do something about it and since i know i'm going to lose a few messages in the air at least send it again in a transparent way so it doesn't bother me. In a few words this is an implementation of a protocol that guarantees that a message sent over a RF Link will get to its destiny no matter what. This implementation is based on RF Links, Arduino e Java. At the end of the explanation of the protocol there's an example of where it can be usefull, so, let's get it started.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="192" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLo3KmMkT8I/AAAAAAAAAKY/L58tpdK6EGs/s320/Photo0525.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;RF Links&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLo3KmMkT8I/AAAAAAAAAKY/L58tpdK6EGs/s1600/Photo0525.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;What you will need &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part 1 (The Protocol): &lt;br /&gt;1x &lt;a href="http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardDuemilanove"&gt;Arduino (any version, mine is a Duemilanove)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1x &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8948"&gt;RF Link 2400bps Receiver - 315MHz&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1x &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8949"&gt;RF Link 2400bps Receiver - 434MHz&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1x &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8945"&gt;RF Link Transmitter - 315MHz&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1x &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8946"&gt;RF Link Transmitter - 434MHz&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1x &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=718"&gt;Breakout Board for FT232RL USB to Serial&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part 2 (The Application): &lt;br /&gt;1x Three-Way Switch&lt;br /&gt;1x 5V Relay&lt;br /&gt;1x 2N2222 Transistor&lt;br /&gt;1x 1N4007 Diode (1N4004 also works)&lt;br /&gt;1x 1K Resistor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Part 1 (The Protocol):&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This solution is based on two parts, a transmitter, connected to a PC running Java code, and a receiver, connected to the Arduino board. Important to say that this name schema can get confused once both the transmitter and the receiver can transmit and receive messages, so let's establish that the transmitter is the one connect to the PC, always, and the receiver is the one on the Arduino board.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;The transmitter&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To build the transmitter we're going to use the &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=718"&gt;Breakout Board for FT232RL USB to Serial&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8945"&gt;RF Link Transmitter - 315MHz&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8949"&gt;RF Link 2400bps Receiver - 434MHz&lt;/a&gt;. One thing to pay attention here is that the receiver and the transmitter need to have different frequencies, otherwise the communication will not happen.&lt;br /&gt;First thing to do is to wire the VCCIO pin on the breakout board to 5V and to help you on this, check this &lt;a href="http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;amp;t=21234"&gt;mini-tutorial on the SparkFun Forum&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Once this first step is done we need to add the transmitter/receiver pair to our transmitter (remember? transmitter means PC, receiver, Arduino). So, there's also a &lt;a href="http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&amp;amp;t=22198&amp;amp;hilit=rf+usb+dongle"&gt;thread on the SparkFun forum&lt;/a&gt; to help you on this task.&lt;br /&gt;As you may have noticed on the thread it only refers to the transmitter, to add the receiver is easy and the labels on the pins are self-explanatory. One thing that can get you confused is that the receiver has two data pins, we're going to use only one, the first one from left to right, and it goes on the RXD pin on the breakout board.&lt;br /&gt;Antennas are optional, i used them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLouQ-cnedI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/y_8qaf6t_o0/s400/Photo0571.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Transmitter - Left View&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLouQ-cnedI/AAAAAAAAAJ8/y_8qaf6t_o0/s1600/Photo0571.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLouWAsu4kI/AAAAAAAAAKA/Xrk_u3Da-14/s400/Photo0570.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Transmitter - Right View&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLouWAsu4kI/AAAAAAAAAKA/Xrk_u3Da-14/s1600/Photo0570.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLowa4on40I/AAAAAAAAAKE/zBhO4jOTN88/s400/Photo0578.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Transmitter - Top View&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLowa4on40I/AAAAAAAAAKE/zBhO4jOTN88/s1600/Photo0578.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;The receiver&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To build the receiver we just need to take a look at &lt;a href="http://www.glacialwanderer.com/hobbyrobotics/?p=291"&gt;this post&lt;/a&gt; and instead of wiring to different Arduinos you will wire both the transmitter and the receiver in only one board. One more thing that need to be done is that instead of using pins 0 and 1 for the transmitter and the receiver respectively we're are going to use pins 2 and 3.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLoy0blw6VI/AAAAAAAAAKI/exrv5oO49rc/s1600/Photo0572.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLoy5z0w_dI/AAAAAAAAAKM/7NiBEGLkQdw/s400/Photo0574.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Receiver - Front View&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLoy5z0w_dI/AAAAAAAAAKM/7NiBEGLkQdw/s1600/Photo0574.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLoy_qcxh8I/AAAAAAAAAKQ/OxkMB2xXClk/s400/Photo0576.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Receiver - Back View&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLoy_qcxh8I/AAAAAAAAAKQ/OxkMB2xXClk/s1600/Photo0576.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLozFQTJBOI/AAAAAAAAAKU/p4ZZL80xGEA/s400/Photo0577.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Receiver - Other Angle View&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLozFQTJBOI/AAAAAAAAAKU/p4ZZL80xGEA/s1600/Photo0577.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Code&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the best part, so let's begin from the beginning. To get it done i started using &lt;a href="http://www.glacialwanderer.com/_blog/blog2009/08_August/RFLink.pde"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.glacialwanderer.com/_blog/blog2009/08_August/RFDriver.pde"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; codes available &lt;a href="http://www.glacialwanderer.com/hobbyrobotics/?p=291"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. This code already implements error catching so i just had to do a little modification to add reliable messaging and it's available for download in two parts &lt;a href="http://codeviewer.org/view/code:12d6"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://codeviewer.org/view/code:12d7"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;After that comes the Java code wich is a version of the Arduino code implemented in Java, of course, and it's also available in two parts &lt;a href="http://codeviewer.org/view/code:12d8"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://codeviewer.org/view/code:12d9"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. This is a improved version of the Java code available &lt;a href="http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Interfacing/Java"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and it uses the &lt;a href="http://rxtx.qbang.org/"&gt;RXTX library&lt;/a&gt; for serial communication.&lt;br /&gt;In a few words what this code does is: The transmitter (Java code) keeps the id (a random number) of the last message sent and keeps sending this very same message until it gets a reply from the receiver (Arduino). The receiver, once a message is received, verifies if it has the same id of the last message it received. If the id is the same it means the transmitter didn't receive the reply and just send a reply again if it's not it handles the message and send a reply for the first time. When a reply gets to the transmitter it verifies if it's a reply for the last message sent and, if it's ok, it stops sending messages. All this is done with some error catching that was already available and you can check the console (both Arduino and Java) for the outputs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu4AEdjz1I/AAAAAAAAAKc/BMpopnZLKeA/s1600/code.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Java code running&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu4AEdjz1I/AAAAAAAAAKc/BMpopnZLKeA/s1600/code.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;Part 2 (The Application)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think an implementation like that can be used in many situations, and it can also be improved to add more capabilities. One situation where it can be used is to build a home automation system, which was already something i would like to work on. On my case i just added the capability of switching my room light wirelessly and in order to do that i added a little circuit and a relay to the Arduino part of the solution, walkthrough found &lt;a href="http://www.glacialwanderer.com/hobbyrobotics/?p=9"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Thing is, i wanted the wirelessly controlling to be a plus, i still wanted to be able to turn my light on and off using the switch. So, i added a three-way switch to the solution and connected it to the relay, help found &lt;a href="http://www.eletrica.info/three-way-interruptor-paralelo-o-que-e-como-funciona/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Doing this i'm now able to turn my light on using the switch and turn it off wirelessly and vice versa or use just one to accomplish both tasks. Here are some pictures to help in the understanding:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu7m44Pj3I/AAAAAAAAAKk/8lq9dUpIJsU/s400/Photo0579.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;parts needed&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu7m44Pj3I/AAAAAAAAAKk/8lq9dUpIJsU/s1600/Photo0579.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu7sDvPClI/AAAAAAAAAKo/tNjGyb_luJQ/s400/Photo0580.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;AC&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu7yH3YHNI/AAAAAAAAAKs/3xLgT-Xn-1s/s400/Photo0581.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Three-way switch connected to the 5V relay and the AC&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TLu7hVo8WlI/AAAAAAAAAKg/SAzOrOmaU_Y/s400/Photo0583.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;The whole thing connecte&lt;b&gt;d&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;b&gt;Conclusion&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;So, i think that's it. Let me know if you guys used it to something else, or even if you think something can be modified or, i don't know, if you have doubts in some part that was not very well explained (easy to happen). Comments will be very appreciated.

As medições no seu velocímetro são baseadas em dois lasers apontados para dois photo-resistors ligados ao Arduino, a distancia entre os dois resistores é conhecida e é utilizada para realização dos cálculos. O intervalo de tempo passado entre a ruptura do primeiro e do segundo feixes laser completa os dados para a obtenção da velocidade final.&lt;br /&gt;Um ponto interessante desse projeto, que eu não tinha conhecimento, é que a interface que ele utilizou no PC para visualização da velocidade, Adobe Air, pôde ser reutilizada no Android sem nenhuma modificação.

O problema é que ele tinha que manter o computador ligado o tempo todo para poder realizar o acesso remoto e, como nós sabemos, um computador ligado o tempo todo consome energia. Energia essa gasta na maior parte do tempo de forma ociosa. A solução? Usar um Arduino, um Ethernet Shield e um ProtoShield, entre outros componentes, para criar um dispositivo que o possibilite ligar e desligar o computador remotamente, reduzindo assim o consumo de energia. O bacana dessa história é que além de realizar o projeto o tal cara resolveu, em cima do custo do projeto, calcular em quanto tempo o projeto estaria pago em relação à economia realizada com o consumo de energia. O resultado? 3 meses de uso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blake-foster.com/projects/thumbnails/remote_startup_connected_jpg_width_512.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="293" src="http://blake-foster.com/projects/thumbnails/remote_startup_connected_jpg_width_512.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[&lt;a href="http://blake-foster.com/project.php?p=44"&gt;Página do projeto&lt;/a&gt; via &lt;a href="http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2010/10/_remote_pc_startup_system.html"&gt;Make&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-2744350947039025414?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/2744350947039025414/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/10/off-topicpt-br-sistema-de-inicializacao.html#comment-form' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/2744350947039025414'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/2744350947039025414'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/10/off-topicpt-br-sistema-de-inicializacao.html' title='[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] Sistema de inicialização remota para PC'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-6850766293532448392</id><published>2010-10-08T13:14:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-10-08T13:14:13.886-03:00</updated><title type='text'>[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] Controle seu Arduino com o celular pela internet</title><content type='html'>Existem por aí milhares de posts sobre como controlar o &lt;a href="http://arduino.cc/"&gt;Arduino&lt;/a&gt; pela internet mas a maioria deles faz uso de shields que podem sair um pouco caro, sejam eles um &lt;a href="http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/ArduinoEthernetShield"&gt;ethernet shield&lt;/a&gt; ou &lt;a href="http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=9607"&gt;cellular shield&lt;/a&gt;.

A intenção é verificar se a tag lida é uma tag válida e liberar a porta girando o servo enquanto emite um som através do buzzer, caso contrário, nada acontece e é emitido um outro alerta sonoro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://appdelegateinc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/rfid1-1024x768.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://appdelegateinc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/rfid1-1024x768.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[&lt;a href="http://appdelegateinc.com/blog/2010/10/04/arduino-rfid-security-access/"&gt;Página do projeto&lt;/a&gt; via &lt;a href="http://www.adafruit.com/blog/2010/10/04/arduino-rfid/"&gt;Adafruit Blog&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-7067849312263807593?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/7067849312263807593/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/10/off-topicpt-br-arduino-e-rfid.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/7067849312263807593'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/7067849312263807593'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/10/off-topicpt-br-arduino-e-rfid.html' title='[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] Arduino e RFID'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-2061632001814136120</id><published>2010-10-04T11:57:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-10-04T12:02:36.774-03:00</updated><title type='text'>[OFF-TOPIC/pt-BR] Video Game Shield</title><content type='html'>O &lt;a href="http://www.makershed.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MKWL02&amp;amp;Click=37845"&gt;Video Game Shield&lt;/a&gt; é um shield para &lt;a href="http://arduino.cc/"&gt;Arduino&lt;/a&gt; que permite a você criar seus próprios jogos, incluindo gráficos, texto, efeitos sonoros e música, em preto e branco.

Em um momento dessa entrevista o repórter pergunta ao entrevistado o que ele gostava do fato de trabalhar nos EUA, o que o interessava. E aí vem uma resposta bacana, ele disse que a facilidade que se tem nos EUA de ter uma boa idéia e transformá-la em produto é um fator bastante motivador.&lt;br /&gt;Bom, baseado nessa resposta do Alex é que fiz esse post, pra mostrar a idéia de uma mulher que trabalha como gerente em um hotel em São Francisco.

E, se você visita o blog é por que você se interessa por eletrônica, códigos e principalmente Arduino. Então, que tal concorrer a alguns arduinos, ethernet shields, módulos xbee, entre outros?&lt;br /&gt;Foi pensando nisso que adicionei à barra lateral do blog um anúncio do &lt;a href="http://google.com/adsense"&gt;AdSense do Google&lt;/a&gt;. A idéia é simples, colocando o anúncio eu posso, através de cliques e/ou pageviews, ganhar algum dinheiro. Aí você pensa, já está querendo faturar às custas do blog. Não, não estou. Essa verba será convertida em prêmios que sortearei aqui mesmo no blog para aqueles que seguem o blog, ou seguem o blog no twitter ou retwitarem algum tweet a respeito do sorteio. Como nunca tive um blog ou participei de sorteios em outros blogs, ainda não sei qual é o melhor modelo a ser adotado e estou aceitando sugestões através dos comentários ou por email (arduitter at gmail.com). O dinhero será usado para a aquisição dos prêmios, pagamentos dos impostos quando for o caso (60% é uma graninha bacana), custos com o envio e embalagem. Pense comigo, estou visitando o blog, dando uma olhada em projetos interessantes utilizando Arduino, conhecendo coisas novas e ainda posso ganhar com isso? Que maravilha!&lt;br /&gt;Pra começar estou pensando em um &lt;a href="http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardDuemilanove"&gt;Arduino Duemilanove&lt;/a&gt; como prêmio. Porém, como alguns devem saber, o Google só envia o dinherio quando alcançar o valor de US$100,00 e atualmente estamos zerados. Então, já sabe, vale aquela visita diária pra ficar por dentro dos projetos mais interessantes na internet utilizando Arduino. Para seguir o blog é fácil, basta utilizar a sua conta do gmail, tornando-se um seguidor do blog você receberá, no &lt;a href="http://google.com/reader"&gt;Google Reader&lt;/a&gt; (que é integrado ao GMail), todas as atualizações feitas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se quiser ficar por dentro das novidades e saber o que está acontecendo por aqui, sugiro seguir o blog ou seguir &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/arduitter"&gt;@arduitter no Twitter&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-6179037594043173405?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/6179037594043173405/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/09/pt-br-novidades.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/6179037594043173405'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/6179037594043173405'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/09/pt-br-novidades.html' title='[pt-BR] Novidades'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-4437749153439534962</id><published>2010-09-16T12:30:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-09-16T12:32:10.740-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Wanna know what time it is?

A idéia é fazer com que um Arduino com módulo XBee, funcionando como roteador, realize medições de temperatura, luz e presença de uma sala e envie para um outro módulo XBee, dessa vez conectado ao computador.

O &lt;a href="http://www.amarino-toolkit.net/"&gt;Amarino&lt;/a&gt; surge da idéia de querer capturar esses eventos no seu smartphone rodando &lt;a href="http://www.android.com/"&gt;Android&lt;/a&gt; e fazer com estes sejam processados para realizar alguma atividade no seu &lt;a href="http://arduino.cc/"&gt;Arduino&lt;/a&gt;. Atividades tais como, ao receber uma ligação no Android faça com que este led no Arduino acenda. Toda essa comunicação é realizada via Bluetooth e permite também o caminho contrário, ao pressionar este botão no Arduino envie uma mensagem de texto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="copyright"&gt;Para começar a utilizar o Amarino você vai precisar de um smartphone rodando o Android, um Arduino com módulo Bluetooth e alguma criatividade. O próximo passo é instalar a &lt;a href="http://code.google.com/p/amarino/downloads/detail?name=Amarino_2.apk&amp;amp;can=2&amp;amp;q="&gt;aplicação&lt;/a&gt;, disponível na &lt;a href="http://www.amarino-toolkit.net/index.php/download.html"&gt;página de download&lt;/a&gt;, no seu Android e instalar a &lt;a href="http://code.google.com/p/amarino/downloads/detail?name=MeetAndroid.zip&amp;amp;can=2&amp;amp;q="&gt;biblioteca para Arduino&lt;/a&gt;, também disponível na &lt;a href="http://www.amarino-toolkit.net/index.php"&gt;página do projeto&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="copyright"&gt;Depois disso é começar a pensar no que utilizar o Amarino e partir pra implementação.

(Part 1)</title><content type='html'>On September 7th, 1822, D. Pedro shouted out and loud that he would be independent, "-Independence or death!", or he'd die for it. Come on, if a man says that you rather give him his independence or he'd give his life trying to obtain it at all costs you have got to give the guy some credit, after all you have got to have some balls in order to do that. I don't know, it was like a Chuck Norris kind of thing. The fact is he got what he wanted and it was on that day, also known as Brazil's Independence Day, that i got my Real Time Clock breakout board soldered, acctually not in 1822 but in 2010.

Another "todo" thing is that i want all the numbers of the date and time to have two digits, so it'll be always centralized. As soon as i get these things done i come back with the results.

Arduitter is ready and it's live. After a few months it can now be broadcasted so anyone can see, enjoy, comment and maybe build one themselves. First of all let me tell you what Arduitter is and where the idea came from and what it is not.&lt;br /&gt;Arduitter came from the fact that i wanted to build something related to Twitter and what could be better than build a device that could read tweets in near real time. So i did a little research on the &lt;a href="http://apiwiki.twitter.com/"&gt;Twitter API&lt;/a&gt; and found &lt;a href="http://www.winterwell.com/software/jtwitter.php"&gt;JTwitter&lt;/a&gt; wich is a Java wrapper of the API and fitted (does this word exist?) well for what i needed. After that i implemented my Java code that from 5 to 5 seconds runs a search on Twitter and refreshs a pool of status. Then went straight to the electronics part and made &lt;a href="http://arduino.cc/"&gt;Arduino&lt;/a&gt; talk to the Java via serial (COM3 in my case) and show tweets on the LCD connect to it. There's also a &lt;a href="http://www.ladyada.net/make/waveshield/"&gt;Wave Shield&lt;/a&gt; connected to Arduino responsible for making Arduitter "tweet". Here's the post that ilustrates this part of the project.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/its-working.html"&gt;http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/its-working.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next i had to put everything i had into something, then i decided to google a twitter bird paper toy and here's what i found (&lt;a href="http://www.ataquemutante.com/hoy-presentamos-%C2%A1el-pajaro-de-twitter/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;). Tested for the correct size in order to put the whole thing inside and started the building part. Next are some post on the tests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/building-bird.html"&gt;http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/building-bird.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/progress-i.html"&gt;http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/progress-i.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/here-we-go.html"&gt;http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/06/here-we-go.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Now starts the hardest step of arduitter's building. I had to model pieces on 3mm MDF, cut, sand, glue, paint and glue again, this time was the skin. About the skin here's something you should know, the &lt;a href="http://www.nanibird.com/nanibirdtmplts.html"&gt;original template&lt;/a&gt; belongs to &lt;a href="http://www.mckibillo.com/"&gt;Josh Mckibillo&lt;/a&gt; that also owns a page on these kind of paper toys, &lt;a href="http://www.nanibird.com/"&gt;NaniBird. &lt;/a&gt;Here are the results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/07/arduitter-is-done-for-now.html"&gt;http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/07/arduitter-is-done-for-now.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that i had to publish and show that it really works. Here's &lt;a href="http://arduitter.blogspot.com/p/live_26.html"&gt;Arduitter live on UStream&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;What i expect from here:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- I intent to add a RTC breakout board to the project in order to make it more usefull when it is not showing tweets.&lt;br /&gt;- Put it to work wireless, via RF links, and by wireless i mean half the way, since i'm still going to need the PC part.&lt;br /&gt;- I'll also publish the schematics of Arduitter so others can build one themselves.&lt;br /&gt;- And, since the building part was the hardest step, i'm going to work on an Arduino based desktop CNC Router and &lt;a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-a-Three-Axis-CNC-Machine-Cheaply-and-/"&gt;here's the design&lt;/a&gt; i intent to follow. With that i'll be able to build a second version of Arduitter and correct some mistakes i made with a little bit more speed than the first one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At last but not least, Arduitter was &lt;b&gt;Made in Brazil&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4uUifor1I/AAAAAAAAAJE/7cLGirkxO1U/s1600/Photo0470.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4uUifor1I/AAAAAAAAAJE/7cLGirkxO1U/s400/Photo0470.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4uZ5ruG9I/AAAAAAAAAJI/ZAg9BemtN5o/s1600/Photo0471.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4uZ5ruG9I/AAAAAAAAAJI/ZAg9BemtN5o/s400/Photo0471.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4ufVD37tI/AAAAAAAAAJM/YlWNT_Oeuko/s1600/Photo0472.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4ufVD37tI/AAAAAAAAAJM/YlWNT_Oeuko/s400/Photo0472.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE69jlG3k6I/AAAAAAAAAJQ/8WZMuqaWvkc/s1600/Photo0473.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE69jlG3k6I/AAAAAAAAAJQ/8WZMuqaWvkc/s400/Photo0473.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, got interested and want to build an Arduitter yourself? Build it, take pictures and send it to me so it appers here and others can see your work. In the meantime, follow &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/arduitter"&gt;Arduitter on Twitter&lt;/a&gt; and get to know all the news before everyone else. And, don't forget to send a tweet to Arduitter (&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=@arduitter"&gt;@arduitter&lt;/a&gt;) or use the hashtag (&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=#arduitter"&gt;#arduitter&lt;/a&gt;) to see your tweet live.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-7867871499087451956?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/7867871499087451956/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/07/arduitter-is-live.html#comment-form' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/7867871499087451956'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/7867871499087451956'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/07/arduitter-is-live.html' title='Arduitter is live'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/TE4uUifor1I/AAAAAAAAAJE/7cLGirkxO1U/s72-c/Photo0470.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-8564775553358257295</id><published>2010-07-25T20:32:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-07-25T20:32:35.682-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Arduino has a 128 bytes serial buffer size</title><content type='html'>After i found out that Arduino has a 128 bytes serial buffer size (took me a while, it would be easier if i had taken a look &lt;a href="http://arduino.cc/en/Serial/Available"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; before) i'm working in a protocol to send tweets to Arduitter with no data loss.

Yesterday my package came in and i was able to wire it up and test the space i had on the inside to see if the whole thing would really fit. Below are some pictures of my order and for those who know what is shown in the pictures, lucky you, for those who doesn't, wait on a later post that i'll add it to the project and you'll be able to see it working.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

When these two are done i'll make a video of it. While that, take a look at &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/arduitter"&gt;twitter&lt;/a&gt; and get to know arduitter's news before everyone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, Josh, saw your &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/mckibillo/statuses/18399046380"&gt;tweet&lt;/a&gt; today and &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/arduitter/status/18607562932"&gt;retweeted&lt;/a&gt; it.

In this post we can see the speech baloon in place so as the feet and the screws to hold arduino in place. By the end of the post there are two pics of the beak in place. Yeah, the bird is done.&lt;br /&gt;There's something that now i can share with you guys. &lt;a href="http://www.mckibillo.com/"&gt;Josh McKible&lt;/a&gt;, the creator of the &lt;a href="http://www.nanibird.com/nanibirdtmplts.html"&gt;template&lt;/a&gt; i'm using in this project and also the owner of the &lt;a href="http://www.nanibird.com/"&gt;nanibird blog&lt;/a&gt;, got in touch with me and offered himself to create a design especially for arduitter. According to him at the end of this week we'll have something. Now let's get something straight, the actual design i'm using in the project was made by &lt;a href="http://www.ataquemutante.com/hoy-presentamos-%C2%A1el-pajaro-de-twitter/"&gt;ataque mutante&lt;/a&gt;, using &lt;a href="http://www.nanibird.com/nanibirdtmplts.html"&gt;Josh's template&lt;/a&gt;, which is another blog about paper toys.&lt;br /&gt;I'm also waiting an order i placed to arrive, i think, until this week. This order has some components that will help me finishing the guts of arduitter.&lt;br /&gt;So, enough fooling around and let's see how arduitter is until now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

Hopefully i also expect #arduitter bird to have some feet and its sign in place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obs. This morning i realized that i glued the speaker upside down.

He said that i should post in both English and Portuguese, so that people who can't read the posts written in English could also follow the project. So, from now on i'm going to post in two languages, English and Portuguese.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="darkgreen"&gt;Hoje um amigo meu me deu uma sugestão que eu achei que seria interessante aceitar. Ele disse que eu deveria postar tanto em Inglês quanto em Português, dessa maneira pessoas que não leêm em Inglês poderiam acompanhar o projeto. Portanto, de agora em diante estarei escrevendo em duas línguas, Inglês e Português.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, the interesting part.

For now, that's what i got.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font color="darkgreen"&gt;Agora a parte interessante. Pra manter o blog atualizado com o que eu estou fazendo, estou trabalhando em como mostrar os tweets no LCD e na integração com o código Java para a verificação de novos tweet. Assim que finalizar posto os resultados. Por enquanto isso é o que tenho.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/S_wGjHU8O2I/AAAAAAAAACU/yDyb6mRgv8g/s1600/Photo0268.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/S_wGjHU8O2I/AAAAAAAAACU/yDyb6mRgv8g/s400/Photo0268.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475258447307750242" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/S_wGi_e203I/AAAAAAAAACM/E5ohETkUab4/s1600/Photo0269.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/S_wGi_e203I/AAAAAAAAACM/E5ohETkUab4/s400/Photo0269.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475258445201855346" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-4158552026674816464?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/4158552026674816464/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/05/two-languages-dois-idiomas.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/4158552026674816464'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/4158552026674816464'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/05/two-languages-dois-idiomas.html' title='Two languages - Dois idiomas'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/S_wGjHU8O2I/AAAAAAAAACU/yDyb6mRgv8g/s72-c/Photo0268.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-573840471014070614</id><published>2010-05-24T11:20:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-05-24T12:11:23.576-03:00</updated><title type='text'>LCD soldering and test</title><content type='html'>This weekend i finally worked on something but i still have some working left to be done.

First one, i have to integrate the Arduino with my Java code to show new tweets on the LCD. In order to do that i need to thing of what i want to be shown about the tweet (from, date/time, the status itself, etc) and how i want it to be shown (scroll the text left, scroll the text up, etc). And the second task refers to the Wave Shield i bought that still need to be soldered and after that tested.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7139555744230746595-573840471014070614?l=arduitter.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/feeds/573840471014070614/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/05/lcd-soldering-and-test.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/573840471014070614'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7139555744230746595/posts/default/573840471014070614'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arduitter.blogspot.com/2010/05/lcd-soldering-and-test.html' title='LCD soldering and test'/><author><name>Arduitter</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11238406405634419508</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7WlSQJy0bHI/S_qMBTHe22I/AAAAAAAAABE/dtD8_5NrYuY/s72-c/Photo0250.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139555744230746595.post-7500934445066925436</id><published>2010-05-19T11:23:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-05-19T11:43:14.493-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Guess who's home</title><content type='html'>Yeah, they've finally arrived.
