New Mini Camera Module: C429-Lxx
Yet
another candidate for replacement of the C328-series camera modules,
the C429 is available in three models: C429-L28, C429-L36, &
C429-L60. The L28 & L36 lens views are virtually identical, and the
L60 is much more magnified. Although the software is a little
difficult, we've had great success with this camera and expect much
more. Click here for a video demonstration of the software. Click here for a list
of of all available versions, lenses, and data/specs. See below for other links:
Next
month we'll be featuring a video on yet another viable C328 replcement
- the Y201-TTL & Y201-RS232 mini-cam, now in stock!

Basic Programming Concepts: ARDUINO
This
video is for all of you who would like to learn some basics of ARDUINO programming. Tanner covers syntax, basic
programming structure, variables, math operations, comparisons and
control structure, and digital and analog output controls. At least, some
knowledge of running the compiler is required. Here is a link to the .txt from the video demo.

With this
kit, you can follow along each month in our newsletter as we proceed
through the 14 basic projects that are in the manual that comes with
the kit. Here is last month's Circuit 1 video demonstration.
We've
had several calls about using an Arduino Uno and our popular USB5M 300
Second USB Recording Module to create a micro-contolled machine that
will execute random pre-recorded messages. In this article, we
explain how to do it. Combine that with the PIR circuit
we showed you in July, and you could build a device that will trigger
random messages anytime someone ...or something walks by. Read more....
