As if I needed something else to learn and turn into a hobby – here I go with the Arduino.<\/p>\n

Got one from a friend with an Ethernet shield. \u00a0Next thing I know I am ordering a few resistors and sensors for it.<\/p>\n

I have planned several projects for this new venture already. The programming is addictive, and I am sure it gets worse once you can \"IMG_3678\"<\/a>really control and end device or gather more data. So far, I have programmed it to show me the status of all the analog channels with their voltage readings and the status of the digitals on a web page. Pretty slick.<\/p>\n

I was working with it today to write data to a php page then to a MySQL database. From there I hope to also control it via a web front end.<\/p>\n

The sensors and all should be here next week – then it’s on!<\/p>\n

Projects include:<\/p>\n

Kaden’s Automated Coop<\/p>\n

Lie to me AC<\/p>\n

Let it grow arduino<\/p>\n

It’s a hit!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

i am sure they’ll be more, but we will have to wait and see<\/p>\n

***************UPDATE***************<\/p>\n

Well, I did not want to do a new post, and this one was short – yeah like we care about how much crap we put in a database. Anyway…<\/p>\n

So, I worked on the \u00a0Arduino to MYSQL a little more today. Got it posting data from the board to my server on the web. Displaying it in a nice format and I am happy.<\/p>\n

Kaden and I got some stuff in from Amazon today:<\/p>\n
