Browsing around the www, I came across this simple, easy to use development board, which seemed just right for my project. As I've said in an earlier post, I want to reduce my efforts as much as possible, so this Arduino MEGA board was just what I was looking for, as it is built around a powerful enough microcontroller, the ATMega1280, it exposes all I/O pins (analog, digital, PWM etc), and has a simple, open-source programming language, as well as a pretty bare IDE which also allows you to upload the software via USB.
Could I ask for more?
Yes. I could wish for ready-made libraries for working with the serial port, PWM and such, but they are already there. And, as an open-source project, it benefits from continuous improvement from all over the world.
I forgot to mention that it's pretty cheap, too.

ReplyDeleteI'm interested in some project in my e46, and I'm wondering if you could help me...
ReplyDeleteDo you have some knowledge about the IBUS (Tx/Rx commands from arduino to onboard devices) ???

have you considered motion simulation? You can get a DIY kit from SimXperience for pretty low proces relative to other options out there
