These projects can be something very simple to help people understand what Arduino can do or whatever they think is more important to learn.

==Training==
Current project: 


Training will be determined by the needs of the user group meetings.
Past projects: [[Common Project - Xmas 2013]]
Members of our group will offer mentoring, though we might find some kind of trade system (skill-share, beers, travel-cost...).
We need to be able to provide a mentor during sessions to help those who have difficulty getting off the ground - without tying the mentors up too much. Beginners will help each other and when progress will take over some part of the training.


Each project should be listed here, to source help and document what they have done/learned: if not documented directly it does not exist.
==Talks==
Our members would like to hear about [[Not Just Arduino-talks| these topics]]. If you want to come talk to the group or if you are just interested into attending a session please add your name on [[Not Just Arduino-talks|the page]]. So far we have 2 speakers who volunteered on Accelerometers and Low-level ATMEGA overview.

Arduino Clone workshop


Common Project

Common Project is a new idea to give more space to the attenders and involve them into a specific project. These projects can be something very simple to help people understand what Arduino can do or whatever they think is more important to learn. The idea is to decide one Common project at the NJA meetup, split it in different group and then in the end of the day ( or deadline ), try to merge everything in one block of code!


Current project:

Past projects: Common Project - Xmas 2013

Talks

Our members would like to hear about these topics. If you want to come talk to the group or if you are just interested into attending a session please add your name on the page. So far we have 2 speakers who volunteered on Accelerometers and Low-level ATMEGA overview.

Training and Skills offered

Members Projects

Please list here your projects using micro-controllers here (if you're project is listed here, please update the status and info!)

  • Laser tag game - A multiplayer game of laser tag, utilising infra red transmitters and receivers (think TV remote control), water pistols (gutted and internals replaced with electronics...and lasers.)
  • LEDLightCubeFamily - A set of 3 (or more) LED driven light cubes that communicate over RF, respond to sound/music and can adjust their colour via accelerometer driven tilt. --Bradwood (talk)

Previous/Incomplete Projects

Please clean up this section -- move your active projects under the above heading or delete those no longer relevant.

  • Harry Potter Clock - A christmas gift for my girlfriend, uses Arduino, Raspberry Pi and a USB modem to 'magically' point to where I am. It's finished now but I wrote up my experiences and the design of it on my website if anyone's interested in reading about it and learning from my mistakes! (Alastair)
  • Sousvide Water Bath - Precision water heater using PID controller (Deanforbes)
  • Kinect Robotic Arm - with 3D "Vision" - Have Arduino and Raspberry Pi control a robotic arm and have input from Microsoft Kinect's infrared depth sensor to guide the arm to pick stuff User:Ulisses
  • Build a simple ethernet driven relay (2x) - anyone wanting to join in is welcome, we will learn the basics as we go along User:Dariomolinari
  • With basic electronic-circuit training (printing, etching, soldering), would eventually like to build a Nanode User:Dariomolinari
  • 1-wire iButton decode User:Dariomolinari
  • Object detection - begin with RFID and then go on to explore other options with longer ranges (Kieron)
  • I attempted to interface a microcontroller and a timed mains outlet and let out the blue smoke - it's on my User page. User:TheHypnotist
  • Build a self-balancing robot example- anyone who wants to join is welcome (Riccardo)
  • Motion-sensing greeting bot (brendan)
  • remote-controlled hot air balloon/zeppelin (Qpnaosc)
  • 434Mhz RTTY transmitter Transmits text over the air and is picked up by software defined radio, would like some help with taking it further.

Suggestions

  • Using AVR-GCC, Make and AVRDude i.e. progamming Arduino's using C instead of being reliant upon the Arduino IDE.
  • Using hardware programmers.
  • Graphical Programming for Arduino see "Interesting Links"

Recommended Reading

The Hackspace library has some decent Arduino books:

etc...

but please add here suggestions.
