    I would really enjoy to test some new arduino stuff. I got some projects in mind, like a midi controler or a 3d printer that would be good to have arduino stuff to do it.

    I'd be keenly interested in some low power wireless (ZigBee, 6LoWPAN, DASH7, etc) demo kit. TI has some nice stuff as do some of the other vendors. The "smart lightbulb" that Google is coming out with…

    Hi Nicole, Asking for ideas is a very good idea, especially since your road tester base has increased dramatically over the last month. As for what I would like to road test, Test equipment, oscilloscopes…

    I'd vote for FPGA or DSP development kit. For example Altera DE series boards or Beagle Board... At lease something better than a simple board with pinheads and cpu.

    I would like to see some Chipkit, the Arduino compatible board from Microchip.

    ¿It will work like the original one, with the same playground?

    My wish for today image

     

    As I'm often locating faults with no real access to quality information.

    A device that I can hook up to a wire in the modern electronics laden modern motor vehicle to enable me to find the wire amongst a bunch of others somewhere else without having to physically probe each one in turn.

    Be a big help in fault finding.

    Something similar to what telephone techs use but not likely to destroy electronics or trigger the airbag / seatbelt pre tensioner circuit turning vehicle into a write off.

     

     

    Regards

    Don NZ

    I'v been wanting to get my hands on one of these since 2007 and now they have a new model of The New Raspberry Pi. It comes with 512MB of Ram. I would still like to see what I can buld with a Pi. Maybe, revive one of the Dead Laptops, that are under my bed...

    Hi Nicole,

     

    what do you think about a roadtest of the new Arduino Due? I'm sure a lot of us are interested.
