Die Uhrzeit des RTC DS3231 Modul vom Arduino einstellen | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #LEARNingByDoing 

Die Uhrzeit des RTC DS3231 Modul vom Arduino einstellen | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #LEARNingByDoing  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Die Uhrzeit des RTC DS3231 Modul vom Arduino einstellen

Die Uhrzeit des RTC DS3231 Uhrzeitmoduls soll vom Arduino einmalig eingestellt werden. Danach speichert das Modul die richtige Uhrzeit und läuft mit der angebauten Batterie weiter.
Die Verkabelung wurde im vorherigen Beitrag beschrieben.

Die aktuelle Uhrzeit +1min wird manuell eingegeben unter setup(). Dann wird das Programm ca. 4 Sekunden vor der Uhrzeit übersetzt und hochgeladen. Es sollte nun ungefähr zur richtigen Uhrzeit im RTC Chip ankommen. Ansonsten ein wenig mit den 4 Sekunden herum spielen.

Ugly Bug | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #ServoMotors | #LEARNingByDoing

Ugly Bug | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #ServoMotors | #LEARNingByDoing | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Here is a quick and easy little robot that can be built and assembled in about half an hour with the right tools and parts.

I didn't invent it. I saw a video of a thing like this on YouTube and thought 'Hey, that looks fun, I'll build one.'

So I grabbed some servos out of my junk box, an old cellphone battery I had kept in the hope of finding something cool to do with it, an arduino pro 3.3v that I had bought on a whim because I needed to reach the quota for free delivery and went to work.

An hour or so later, here it was!

Let's start with the basic assembly.

Cut off the mounting arm that's opposite the side where the wires come out on one of the servos (This will be your back servo). The back servo points down and the other forward. You can use glu or cable ties to keep them together.

Raspberry Pi powered by Arduino: Now you can program the Pi using Arduino Sketches

Raspberry Pi powered by Arduino: Now you can program the Pi using Arduino Sketches | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

The new feature will allow Pi owners to write Arduino Sketches to interact with sensors, motors, electronic boards and other hardware attached to the Pi's GPIO pins.

Arduino Sketches can now be used to program the Raspberry Pi, marking a moving together of two of the biggest maker platforms.
The cloud-based Arduino Create platform is designed to simplify the creation of Internet of Things applications.
Want to use the $35 Raspberry Pi computer to build your own hardware but only ever used Arduino boards? Well you're in luck.

If you know how to write programs to control hardware using Arduino boards you can now use the same language to control hardware attached to the Pi, the co-founder of the Arduino Project Massimo Banzi announced yesterday.

Banzi revealed a new feature in the cloud-based Arduino Create service that will compile Arduino Sketches — programs typically used to interact with Arduino boards and attached hardware — into a form that can be run on a Raspberry Pi.

The feature will allow Pi owners to write Arduino Sketches to interact with sensors, motors, electronic boards and other hardware attached to the Pi's GPIO pins.

"The idea is there's a tonne of people that know how to use Arduino and they can take their knowledge and apply it to this," Banzi told the Embedded Linux Conference 2018 in Portland in the US.

Raspberry Pi-alike NanoPi K1 Plus: For $35 you get 2xRAM, 4K video, Gigabit Ethernet | #Coding #Maker #MakerSpaces #MakerED

Raspberry Pi-alike NanoPi K1 Plus: For $35 you get 2xRAM, 4K video, Gigabit Ethernet | #Coding #Maker #MakerSpaces #MakerED | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

FriendlyElec has released a $35 rival to the Raspberry Pi 3 B+, outdoing the better-known board with 2GB of memory, Gigabit Ethernet, and a more powerful GPU.

The NanoPi K1 Plus follows FriendlyElec's Nano Pi K2, released last year with similar dimensions to the Raspberry Pi 3 for $40.

The NanoPi K1 Plus shares similar specs to the Nano Pi K2 and maintains the Raspberry Pi's form factor, but offers double the RAM, Gigabit Ethernet, and 4K video playback.

The device also has the same 40-pin GPIO pin-header as the Raspberry Pi 3, so it should work with Raspberry Pi accessories and housings.

Instead of the NanoPi K2's 1.5GHz Amlogic processor, FriendlyElec opted for an Allwinner H5 quad-core 64-bit Cortex A53 processor that runs at 1.4 GHz as well as a six-core Mali450 GPU. The Raspberry Pi 3 B+ uses a 1.4GHz Broadcom BCM2837B0, Cortex-A53 ArmV8 64-bit SoC.

The NanoPi K1 features three USB 2.0 ports, one microUSB 2.0 port for power, a microSD slot, while wireless support includes 802.11 b/g/n.

In this project we’ll show you how to make a WiFi enabled, portable Weather Station using an ESP8266. LINKS BELOW! The software, written by Daniel Eichhorn, uses the Wunderground API to pull weather data. It shows the date, time, current weather conditions, 4-day forecast and even moon phases.

 

The user interface features lovely typography and icons that makes really a clean layout. The 2.4” TFT Feather Wing combined with the Adafruit Feather HUZZAH ESP8266 make assembling this project incredibly easy. Full Tutorial, Files and Code: https://learn.adafruit.com/wifi-weath...

Good to know when using different Arduino boards | Arduino - Wire | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #LEARNingByDoing

Wire Library

This library allows you to communicate with I2C / TWI devices. On the Arduino boards with the R3 layout (1.0 pinout), the SDA (data line) and SCL (clock line) are on the pin headers close to the AREF pin. The Arduino Due has two I2C / TWI interfaces SDA1 and SCL1 are near to the AREF pin and the additional one is on pins 20 and 21.

As a reference the table below shows where TWI pins are located on various Arduino boards.

 

BoardI2C / TWI pinsUno, EthernetA4 (SDA), A5 (SCL)Mega256020 (SDA), 21 (SCL)Leonardo2 (SDA), 3 (SCL)Due20 (SDA), 21 (SCL), SDA1SCL1

 

As of Arduino 1.0, the library inherits from the Stream functions, making it consistent with other read/write libraries. Because of this, send() and receive() have been replaced with read() and write().

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ arrives: Faster CPU, Wi-Fi, 300Mbps Ethernet | #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #Coding #LEARNingByDoing

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ arrives: Faster CPU, Wi-Fi, 300Mbps Ethernet | #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #Coding #LEARNingByDoing | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

The Raspberry Pi Foundation has launched the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, offering a faster CPU and faster wireless throughput than its predecessor, the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B.

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ comes exactly two years after the launch of the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and is in line with Raspberry Pi Foundation's two-year B+ 'evolution' upgrade.

In other words, the changes don't warrant calling it a Raspberry Pi 4, but there are noticeable improvements, including a faster processor, higher Wi-Fi speeds, and faster Ethernet.

Arduino Blog » You can now use Arduino to program Linux IoT devices | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #PracTICE #LEARNingByDoing  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Today, at Embedded Linux Conference 2018, Arduino announced the expansion of the number of architectures supported by its Arduino Create platform for the development of IoT applications. With this new release, Arduino Create users can manage and program a wide range of popular Linux® single-board computers like the AAEON® UP² board, Raspberry Pi® and BeagleBone® as if they were regular Arduino boards. Multiple Arduino programs can run simultaneously on a Linux-based board and interact and communicate with each other, leveraging the capabilities provided by the new Arduino Connector. Moreover, IoT devices can be managed and updated remotely, independently from where they are located.

To further simplify the user journey, Arduino has also developed a novel out-of-the-box experience for Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone boards, in addition to Intel®  SBCs, which enables anyone to set up a new device from scratch via the cloud without any previous knowledge by following an intuitive web-based wizard. Arduino plans to continue enriching and expanding the set of features of Arduino Create in the coming months.
