After the success of the first project, RLM decided to hack into one of his childhood treasure -Gameboy Console.
The task of this project is to: 1) reverse engineer and hack Gameboy in order to control it with Arduino, 2) and remotely play it from web.
The biggest challenge is to reverse engineer the ...

This was the very first project RLM, Limdo and I did about a few month ago – a very simple project which covers the whole nine yards of internet of things, from basic concept to final implementation. I have been so intrigued by the wonder of electronics and programming world ever since.
The task of this project is to: 1) use Arduino to control 13 LEDs for a digit display, 2) ...

Beautiful Soup is a Python library for pulling data out of HTML and XML files. It works with your favorite parser to provide idiomatic ways of navigating, searching, and modifying the parse tree. It commonly saves programmers hours or days of work.
The HTML tags contained in the angled brackets provide structural information (and sometimes formatting), ...
Let machine do the dirty work. To continue what I started in last post, I tried to see if it is possible to parse the SVG file and generate arduino sketch code out of it. The answer is yes. There is a wonderful post and a SVG Optimiser which helps me greatly for this project.
The communication between the microcontroller and the SD card uses SPI, which takes place on digital pins 11, 12, and 13 (on most Arduino boards) or 50, 51, and 52 (Arduino Mega). Additionally, another pin must be used to select the SD card. This can be the hardware SS pin – ...

There are two ways to draw bitmap images in Arduino TFT LCD – to draw from SD card, or convert them into byte array. The first is more powerful and works with true color bitmap images; the 2nd approach is more suitable for simple logo and monochrome images, and there is no need for SD capability for this method.
There are a ...

There is no package available which offeres a visual graphic display as well as the coordinate info so that you can reproduce it with TFT graphic library. 4D Systems is the closest you can get, yet it is lousy, proprietary and only available for Windows. After researching long and hard for a GUI Designer for Arduino TFT LCD, finally I think I come up with a reasonable implementation – SVG vector ...

Fortune is a simple program that displays a pseudorandom message from a database of quotations. In this blog, I am going to shown you that those electronic cookies -random poignat, inspirational, silly or snide phrases – can make your digital life surprisingly fun, just like a fortune cookies after meal.
Following installation guide is based on Arch Official site.
After using WD My Cloud with version 3 for about a year for the sake of hacking, I finally give it up and switch to version 4. With Nazar’s prebuilt Appz, I have been successfully installed following packages without much issues.
Well, it is a shield, not a breakout board. All you need to do is align the pins and plugged in. Here it is anyway.
