We needed all our superpowers for the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo this past weekend, so we decided to create our version of Arc Reactor for the team to wear at the show in order to augment the intelligence and add superhuman-level multitasking and learning capabilities (imagination is key at the Comic Expo).
Netduino!

Not just another *uino clone, as this uses a 32-bit Atmel AT91SAM7X ARM microcontroller. Sure, it uses the same form factor (well, except for the breadboard-friendly mini version), but the Netduino uses the .NET micro framework.
What's that mean? Well, you're using a hugely more capable microcontroller (8-bit vs 32 bit), with much more memory (32kB vs 512kB), multi-thread programming, debugging, and event-based programming.
If you're comfortable with most MS programming tools, you'll be very comfortable trying out microcontrollers with the Netduino. And being Arduino shield-compatible, you've got a world of accessories available to you.
We're carrying the whole Netduino lineup, including the standard, the Plus (with ethernet & SD Card), and the 0.6"-wide DIP mini.

Well, we survived the battlefield of 2014 Calgary Entertainment Expo with no human, animal or machinery losses (although with an apparent vocabulary shift towards geekery). In any case, running a double booth was a lot of fun and a lot of work, which makes it satisfying and tiring at the same time. And educating: we've […]
