For the final part and realisation of the Transforming Stonehouse project we are now investigating the uses of Arduino boards and how we can implement them. Arduino boards are small circuit boards that can be connected to various inputs and outputs and programmed through a USB connection using Arduino and linked up to other software such as Processing and Flash. Inputs can include a range of sensors including light sensors, motion sensors, mircophones and magnetic sensors, as well as ethernet data through a computer, while outputs can include motors, sounds, and LEDs. The flexibility of Arduino boards allows for a massive range of possibilities for projects. A few examples of uses for arduino boards is shown below:
These are onlyvery basic projects and arduino has the capability for much more. Me and my group now need to work out how we plan to use arduino boards to realise a project for this module based on the work we have done over the year so far.
