chipKIT Pro MX4 : Embedded Systems Trainer Board
The chipKIT™ Pro MX4 is a microcontroller development board based on the Microchip® PIC32MX460F512L, a member of the 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller family. It is compatible with Digilent's line of Pmods, and is suitable for use with the Microchip MPLAB® IDE tools. The chipKIT Pro MX4 is also compatible for use with the chipKIT MPIDE development environment.
The chipKIT Pro MX4 provides 74 I/O pins that support a number of peripheral functions, such as USB controller, UART, SPI, and I2C ports as well as five pulse-width modulated outputs and five external interrupt inputs. Fifteen of the I/O pins can be used as analog inputs in addition to their use as digital inputs and outputs.

An Atmel ATtiny24 microcontroller drives an R/C servo wich in turn rotates a line LASER taken from a LASER level.
The microcontroller runs a software real time clock and turns the servo and the line LASER to mimic the shadow cast from the style of a sundial as the time goes.

Talks and performances by people doing strange things with electricity
Fri 23 March 2012, 6.30-10pm with interval at the Showroom Cinema, Sheffield.
Dorkbot is a meeting of people interested in electric/electronic art in the broadest sense; robotics, kinetic art, microcontrollers, interactive art, algorithmic music, net.art... The only real conditions are that it is a bit strange and involves electricity in some way. It is really defined by whoever turns up, be it engineers who want to be artists, artists who want to be engineers, or the otherwise confused.
This MEGADORK event features a cabaret of talks and performances from among the UK's dorkiest, to entertain and amaze:
Paul Granjon - A strange performance from the world renowned self-styled robot artist.
Patrick Tresset - Talks about his drawing robot Paul (on show as part of the Alan Turing: Intuition and Ingenuity exhibition).
Daniel Jones and James Bulley - talking about generating live music from patterns of weather.
www.variable4.org.uk/about/intro
Sarah and Jenny Angliss - playing robot music from past futures.
spacedog.biz
Sergi Jorda - talks about the Reactable tangible tabletop music playground (which you'll be able to try out at the Central Library Saturday 24 March)
Dan Stowell - Demonstrates his use of the Risset illusion in techno music.
Silicone Bake - Live coded pop songs about love, death and counterfeit watches, where all lyrics are taken from spam emails.
Megadork is curated by Alex McLean.
Dorkbot started in New York, spread to London, and now dozens of cities around the world, including several active UK chapters; Sheffield, Bristol, Anglia, Newcastle, Cardiff and Alba (Scotland). Find out more at: www.dorkbot.org

Expanding on Microchip’s existing 8-bit PIC® microcontroller-based mTouch development tools for capacitive touch, the PICDEM Touch Sense 2 Demo Board enables designers to implement this leading-edge user interface with Microchip’s wide portfolio of 16-bit PIC24F MCUs. Equipped with capacitive touch-sensing keys and sliders, the board allows designers to evaluate this interface in their applications using the Windows-based mTouch Diagnostic Tool, an easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI) that is included in the mTouch Sensing Solution SDK. The software libraries, source code and other support materials that come with the board further shorten development time and reduce design costs.

This is a circuit board that I designed for the 2009 Missouri S&T Formula SAE car (http://fsae.mst.edu)
It includes an ATmel ATMega324P as the microcontroller, and an Xbee radio for communication with the rest of the car's electrical systems.
Sanguino is an open source Arduino-compatible microcontroller board that is based on the Arduino, and inspired by the Boarduino form-factor. It uses the atmega644P chip which has 4x the memory, ram and 12 more GPIO pins than the Arduino's atmega168.

Just trying out the parts for size on the board. The layout is very similar, but not identical, to the Arduino PCB. I've chosen the little black tact-switch for reset, and the tiny red Wima capacitors for decoupling, but since this stage, I've decided to change the Molex KK connectors. Note the use of a socket for the crystal -- I'd like to swap it for a 12MHz one later, to run the USB software.

Microchip Technology's MCP9804 Temperature Sensor provides high temperature accuracy of +0.25° C (typical) and +/- 1° C from -40 to +125°C, as well as static current consumption of just 200 µA (typ.). Available in small 8-pin MSOP and 2 mm x 3 mm DFN packages, the I2C™ device reduces board space and enables longer battery life for industrial, automotive and consumer applications.

A work of minimalism, this little car is put together from individual parts. I'm working to expand my knowledge of electronics and robotics by doing without the abstraction of store-bought controller boards and power supplies. I did, of course, use circuits designed by others, as I'm not that far along. The power supply, H-bridge, and IR emitter circuits came from my copy of Intermediate Robot Building by David Cook (robotroom.com).
