Nick got his lily pad to say hello world, which in microcontroller-speak means that he got an LED to blink on and off.

It was a bit tricky because the arduino code version 10 hadn’t come out yet, so he was working with the alpha code. After some poking around, the official version 10 code still isn’t out. Here’s the alpha version. – Link

After I get another two videos up, I’ll get us set up with an itunes channel. If someone wants to make a better intro and outro for these videos, go for it!

The above video is hosted at blip.tv which is my favorite place. – Link
There’s an audience at youtube so I slapped it there too. – Link

Mikey made this jumpsuit full of LEDs and he set it up so that he could take all the wires and electronics off. I like the style of the jumpsuit. I grew up taking auto shop in school and I had a jumpsuit that was really great and this makes me want a jumpsuit again!

My solution was to use four layers of velcro, and a rather comfy full body jumpsuit I had purchased from a nearby military surplus store.The hope being that I would wear this jumpsuit frequently and not be limited by the weather or type of event. Its actually worked just as well as I hoped. I am able to wash the suit (detaching the electronics). – Link

I bought one of Joe’s GPS units a while back to use on a near space ballon project and still have it kicking around. Here’s the code to get it rolling. – Link

Here’s an ambient orb you can make with an arduino. How big could we make an ambient orb?- Link

Aaron Propst made a stepper motor controller with his arduino. This vid gives you an idea of how to control steppers with an arduino. Click through for the details. – Link
