NANO-ARM : Arduino Zero Compatible but in Arduino Nano Form Factor

2017/07/25 6:55 am / Leave a Comment / Bertus Kruger / Featured

We loved Arduino Nano’s but always wanted a bit more performance and memory. So we decided to create a Arduino Nano compatible board but with an upgrade micro-controller that is similar to an Arduino Zero. They are now ready and shipping from our online store : Protoneer Online Store http://wiki.protoneer.co.nz/NANO-ARM Nano-ARM forum page

Arduino CNC Shield – 100% GRBL Compatable

2015/08/30 8:01 pm / Bertus Kruger / Featured

Do it yourself CNC projects are popping up everywhere and we decided that we wanted to contribute to the growth. Here are a few of our design goals: Modular Design – We wanted to do more than just keep cost down. We wanted things to be reusable and up-gradable. (Arduino , Individual Stepper Motor Drivers and … Read More →

GRBL – How to clear EEPROM settings

2015/06/29 7:26 pm / 1 Comment / Bertus Kruger

I have lately been flashing a bunch of Arduino micro-controllers with GRBL and I had a small issue where an older version of GRBL’s settings were stuck in the Arduino’s EEPROM. To get around this I used a quick script from the Arduino website to clear it. I thought it would be useful for people … Read More →

Programming hundreds of Arduino Minions in one go

2015/06/20 9:46 pm / 3 Comments / Bertus Kruger

I am currently working on a neat project (Raspberry Pi CNC Board) where I have to program a bunch of Arduinos for each of the boards I am making. At first I did it with the Arduino IDE one board at a time but that was very tedious and required me to sometime change the … Read More →

Sneak preview : LPCDuino

2014/05/11 4:29 pm / 2 Comments / Bertus Kruger

A few months ago while designing the Arduino CNC Shield I bumped into a guy that was also going through the process of building a CNC machine. Between us we had some good brain storms and ended up with the current version of the CNC Shield. He has been keeping himself  busy with a few interesting … Read More →

DIY Robot Arm by UFactory

2013/12/31 6:41 pm / 1 Comment / Bertus Kruger

UFactory.cc has designed a promising DIY robot arm that is able to lift over 300gm using standard hobby Servo’s. The Robot Arm has 4 degrees of freedom at the moment but I can see it being modified to be even more flexible.     The Design is based on one of the fastest palletising robot … Read More →

Arduino Web Dashboard without the need of web-server

2013/08/30 6:00 am / 4 Comments / Bertus Kruger

Luca Dentella posted an example on his blog about creating a full-working dashboard for Arduino (charts and gauges) in Javascript, running entirely in a web browser without the need for a web-server. In this implementation, Luca uses the Arduino connected to an AM2302 sensor (DHT22) to get temperature and humidity values, which are then displayed on the dashboard. … Read More →

Arduino Float to String (That actually works)

2013/08/28 6:00 am / Leave a Comment / Bertus Kruger

If you have ever tried to use sprintf() on an Arduino to convert from a float to a string, you will notice it doesn’t work.

1
2
3
 
sprintf(buf,"%f", floatvar);
 

The above function will most likely return a “?” to your char buffer. If you google around, you’ll see various functions that people have written to overcome this, but all of … Read More →
