Freezer Burn is an Alberta Regional Burning Man celebration annually creating a temporary community out on the prairie. A few of us here at Solarbotics attend, and having access to all of the neat technology, we make an effort to bring special projects to the festival. Lit up projects work well since the event is outdoors […]
Netduino!
Dave Hrynkiw
February 18, 2011
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.
