NYC Resistor

It’s time again for NYCR’s public Microcontroller Study Group. The meeting is Wednesday (tonight!) from 7-9pm. We’ve all been busy focusing on other tasks, so for tonight, the agenda is open. After tonight, the Study Group is going on hiatus for a while, so bring stuff to show off, projects you want to talk about, or just be ready to talk microcontrollers!. The meeting is at the usual location, NYCR HQ @ 397 Bridge Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201 — 5th Floor (look for the resistors on the door).

The MSG meetings are free and open to the public (a small donation is appreciated, to help pay the rent), so if you’re in the New York City area and you have an interest in microcontrollers or electronics or blinky things, why not stop by? And if you have a project that you want to show off or get help with, bring it along. We love meeting new people and seeing what everyone is working on.

It’s that time of the month again: NYCR’s public Microcontroller Study Group is meeting this Wednesday from 7-9pm. If you missed the last meeting, we had a number of interesting guests and projects, including Devon Jones who brought his Tinct, and Chris Fenton who brought his microcontroller laptop.

Learn how to use shift registers as Dave explains his LED oscilloscope project at NYC Resistor’s bi-weekly Microcontroller Study Group.

UPDATE:

We’ve all gotten excited about this project, and Dave has agreed to open up his code and document everything, but needs a little help creating the schematics, etc. Zach ‘Hoeken’ Smith of RepRap will be giving a demo on Eagle at the next NYCResistor Microcontroller Study Group meeting so we can create the schematic, and get started documenting this whole project from start to finish!

Soon after that, we’re looking to create a kit for this project to make it easy for people to duplicate it at home. It’s a great project for learning audio processing, breadboarding using arduino, shift registers, and how to make and use an LED matrix. That, and it’s just cool. I want one of these for my desk.
