* controlling multiple arduino from a single usb connection. With some more complicated projects a few arduinos end up being used, if you want to control all these arduinos from one computer you get a messy array of comports to choose from which can be confusing. Perhaps it would be possible to have one USB connection which would link to multiple arduinos and wrap them so they could be addressed more easily. | * controlling multiple arduino from a single usb connection.

* Some people want to build USB devices that don't need a lot of programmability, like LED control or serial adapters for various protocols. The FTDI CDs we've received have a PDF on them called 'Embedded USB Design by Example' which explains how to do these things using the FTDI serial chips fitted to Arduino and in some common serial adapter leads. Worth reading, even if you don't expect to need the FTDI Vinculo kits. | |||
