At about $30, the Arduino isn't an expensive device, but if you want to make your own, simpler version, electronics blog Hardware Startup shows off how to build an Arduino clone for less than $5.

The project is termed as Boarduino since it is an Arduino clone that can talk to the Arduino software when programmed with the Arduino bootloader. The project is termed as Boarduino since it is an ...

Back in 2005, the Arduino was just a twinkle in they eyes of [Massimo Banzi] and the other core developers. Since then, you can’t go to any electronics site without hitting something beginning with ...

What do you do if even the smallest Arduino boards (or their clones) are too big for your homebrew project? If you're Johan Kanflo, you find a way to make them even smaller. His AAduino project turns ...

Just to make sure that we’re all tap-dancing to the same drum beat, let’s remind ourselves that Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and ...

A Swedish software engineer — Johan Kanflo — has made a wireless Arduino clone called AADuino, which is the size of an AA battery. Kanflo explains that the AADuino has an onboard RF module, which fits ...

A typical Arduino microcontroller board is pretty small, about the size of a credit card. This makes it suitable for embedding into all sorts of electronic devices. But it's possible to go even ...

Developers, makers and hobbyists that are searching for a small Arduino Mega clone to help create their next project or make an existing Arduino Mega board project even smaller. Maybe interested in a ...

One might think the last thing the world needs is for The Great Old Ones to rise from their near-death sleep deep in the Pacific ocean, and begin again their reign over Earth. Actually, the last thing ...

Description: Using an Arduino or a micro controller we can generate cool looking patterns with an led strip with addressable LEDs. In this case I'm using an Arduino uno (clone board) and a strip of ...

Last year, the Raspberry Pi Foundation surprised the hobbyist world with its RPi Zero, the smallest incarnation of its popular single-board computer. However, that has nothing on this even smaller ...
