I2C is one of the most used electronically data bus that is extremely often used in embedded systems. It is used for attaching sensors, actuators of other subsystems into the system.
Recently i have found a good introduction which includes background knowledge and a HowToUs on www.uchobby.com.
Europe is looking for talents! Those who are members of EURON have already read the announcement, those who are not must read now. The Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation is proud to introduce ‘Campus Party Europe.’ This event will be held in Madrid from April 14th to April 18th of 2010, celebrating the Spanish Presidency of the European Union and organized by Asociacion E3 Futura.
For four days, 800 young people from each of the 27 member states of the EU will participate in activities such as conferences, workshops and challenges centred around three knowledge areas: Science (Robotics, Astronomy and Modding), Digital Creativity (Video, Animation, Design, Photography and Blogs) and Innovation (Application development and Security). Travel, accomodation and catering costs will be fully covered by the organizaton!
In order to obtain your invitation, all you have to do is being registered as Campusero (if you still aren’t registered just fill the registration form with your personal data) and attach the information on the project in which you are participating at your “User Card” of the web.
What’s more, the best projects will be shown in the “Projects Forum” which will be held during Campus Party Europe and three of them (one from each area of knowledge: Science, Innovation and Digital Creativity) will be awarded with 3.000 Euros each.
For more information please refer to the official website of the event.
Before starting this new blog here, i have been collecting Lego Mindstorms related material in my public Wuala Group „ Robotics, Robotik, Mindstorms, Asuro, Yeti, more (www.nxtreme.net)“.
I also uploaded Tutorials for different programming languages.
Feel free to join this group.
Every starting into an new field is hard work and so all of us are often seraching for first hand information that can guide us into this field. Podcasts are a new way to get a starting, but they only can help if they have a certain quality.
The project „Talking Robots“ has definitely a high quality level and presents a wide bandwidth of robotic topics in 45 podcasts. Each podcast presents one field in that way that one leading expert of that field is interviewed and therefore does the team of the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) archive that the audiences get first hand information and a good starting point for deeper investigations.
Unfortunately has the project finished and no new talks are planned. Link RSS
