The Digilent Pmod MTDS is a gorgeous 2.8" touchscreen display with a powerful on-board microcontroller that performs graphics processing tasks. The display is a capacitive touchscreen with QVGA resolution (320×240) and 2 finger multi-touch support.
The most compelling aspect of the Pmod MTDS is the programming experience provided by its Multi-Touch Display System (MTDS) Firmware and the associated libraries. These allow you to design sleek, stylish user interfaces very quickly and with very little code. The timing dependent tasks are handled by the firmware, so integrating the display into existing projects is also a snap. Some of the key functionality provided by the libraries include the ability to draw basic shapes and text, draw images stored on microSD with binary transparency, draw buttons and easily check if they have been pressed, and check the status and location of the user's two fingers. The libraries are supported in Arduino IDE and Xilinx SDK, and have been tested with Ardiuno, chipKIT, and Arty host boards.

Microchip Technology's 8-bit PIC16F(LF)720/1 microcontrollers expanded upon its existing 28-/40-pin PIC16F72X microcontroller (MCU) family with two new 20-pin devices—the PIC16F(LF)720 and PIC16F(LF)721.
The small and very affordable microcontrollers available these days are great. Development tools are free to download, the boards themselves are only a few bucks, and the newer ones are often WiFi and Bluetooth capable.
While displaying the date here doesn't look very exciting, under the hood that little purple board is connected to my home WiFi (you can see the antenna trace on the left side) and was fetching the time from an internet world time API.

The chipKIT™ WF32 is a prototyping platform that adds the performance of the Microchip® PIC32 microcontroller. The WF32 is the first board from Digilent to have a WiFi MRF24 and SD card on the board both with dedicated signals. The WF32 board takes advantage of the powerful PIC32MX695F512L microcontroller, which features a 32-bit MIPS processor core running at 80 MHz, 512K of flash program memory, and 128K of SRAM data memory. The WF32 can be programmed using the Multi-Platform Integrated Development Environment (MPIDE). It contains everything needed to start developing embedded applications. The WF32 features a USB serial port interface for connection to the MPIDE and can be powered via USB or by an external power supply. In addition, the WF32 is fully compatible with the advanced Microchip MPLAB® IDE and works with all MPLAB compatible in-system programmer/debuggers, such as the Microchip PICkit™3 or the Digilent chipKIT PGM.

Still on breadboard - the RF unit is in the grey box, and there is now a non-illuminated LCD display, and the text formatting
issues resolved.
The digital clock in the background is an "Aldi" radio-controlled clock which I believe gets its time from the DCF transmitter located near Frankfurt in Germany which transmits on 77.5kHz
The end objective is to make this a "standalone" receiver and to dispense with the Arduino board.
The idea is to replace the autoexposure electronics with a microcontroller for manual exposure timing.
A PIC 8pin controller should do the trick.
These are tiny and cheap and low power with an internal oscillator.
Power is applied through the button switch . Coding switch is read.
Magnet is energized.
Button releases the first blade - shutter opens. X or V switch starts the timer. after timer is finished magnet releases and shutter closes.
The Hex switch has 16 positions that could be used for times from 1/500th to 2sec. and B
A darlington transistor can drive the magnet with ease.
Now I just need to learn to program the PIC.
I've bought a starter kit and am learning how to do it.
If anyone out there with experience in PIC programming could help me with this iI would be great.

It's quite a distance from my office light switch to the front door. Normally anyone closing up for the night will turn off the light and dash into the pitch blackness, usually hitting a chair or desk in the process. Rather than solve the problem, I lashed together an automatic light-turner-offer...er. Press the button and it beeps for 30 seconds, then turns the light off for you. It returns to a slack position to allow manual light-turning-on...ing.

chipKIT PGM Programmer/Debugger for use with Digilent chipKIT Platforms
The chipKIT PGM is designed to work with the MPLAB® and MPLAB X development environments available from Microchip. This allows the chipKIT boards, for example, to be used as a more traditional microcontroller development platform using the professional tools available from Microchip. While the PICkit™3 programmer can generate programming voltages needed to program all Microchip PIC devices, the chipKIT PGM can only program devices that are programmable with 3.3V programming voltage. Further, the PICkit3 can source a small amount of current to provide power to some boards being programmed. The chipKIT PGM does not provide power to the board being programmed.
