Martin does the hardware and I do the programming :)
Programming microcontrollers reminds me of the good old MS-DOS days...when you would actually manipulate the registers of the graphics card directly and enable weird memory mapping modes to be able to have multiple screen buffers with 256 colors...it's the same now with micro controllers, digital accelerometers and highly integrated RF chips with convenient SPI interface...you get to play with tons of funny registers :) only now in 2011 the ICs are so small that I have to be careful not to inhale them by accident when I marvel at the......I'm rambling I should sleep now :)
A JM-552 SBC by J&M Micro. Based on a Phillips 80C552 microcontroller (an 8051 on steroids). Supports a 2x40-character LCD display.

The RADCASTle is monophonic synthesizer using analog sound-generating circuitry driven by a microcontroller. This was a ECE4007 Senior Design Project at Georgia Tech in the Fall 2008 semester. The team members were Robert Estelle, Logan Snow, Hoan To, and Greg Hartl.
The analog boards were purchased from Ray Wilson of Music From Outer Space. The team developed customer to interface the various analog synth boards with a PIC microcontroller through digital-to-analog converters.
Circuit board I made that fits into a Staples Easy button. Circuit includes microcontroller and flash chip programmed with digital samples of canned laughter. Rubber switch in center was sawn away from original Easy button PCB and epoxied onto mine.

Jennic is a market leader in ZigBee, 6LoWPAN, IEEE802.15.4 wireless microcontrollers, modules and evaluation kits.
I had a tin left over from a wallet I got last year. Luckily I saved the tin because the board fit perfectly inside.
The Digilent Motor Robot Kit (MRK) provides the perfect starting point for those new to robotics, but has the power to be used for advanced designs and applications as well. The MRK pairs our powerful chipKITâ„¢ Pro MX4 microcontroller development board with a rugged steel platform and all the motors, wheels, and other parts needed to build a complete robot. Using your MRK's powerful chipKIT Pro MX4, you'll be able to add all sorts of functionality to your robot. Add some of our extensive line of peripheral modules (Pmods) and you can design almost anything!

Feeling renewed confidence, I decided I'd tack down the microcontroller for the Flavonoid. I'm using an ATMega32L, a low-power ATMega32 in the Thin Quad Flat Package. I decided to try the "solder wick" soldering technique. I don't know why I decided to try something new on something I'm so heavily invested in. I lucked out. It worked like a charm. One more technique in the quiver. If nothing else happens, at least I'm learning a hellzalot.

Oscilloscopes are cool! They are like microscopes for electric signals that can also magnify time :)
It took us almost 4 hours to get the RF transmission going...
The Network Shield provides a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PHY to allow connection to an Ethernet network. It provides the connectors and load switch to support use of the USB 2.0 OTG controller to implement USB device, USB host or OTG operation. It also provides two CAN transceivers and connectors to allow connection to two independent CAN networks. Connectors are provided to allow connection to two of the I2C busses supported by the Max32.
In addition to the communications features, the Network Shield also adds a 256Kbit I2C EEPROM for non-volatile data storage and a 32.768Khz oscillator to allow use of the Real Time Clock/Calendar (RTCC) peripheral in the PIC32 microcontroller.

The Universal Development Board (UDB) is a microcontroller development board intended for use with a wide variety of PIC microcontrollers from Microchip®. It was designed to support most 3.3V, PIC microcontrollers in 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit varieties. It will accommodate a wide range of Microchip PIM processor modules as well as DIP packaged parts with pin counts from 8-pin to 28-pin. Three DIP sockets are provided: 20/14/8 PIN 8-bit PIC, 28 PIN 8-bit PIC, and 28-pin PIC24/dsPIC33/PIC32MX. This board also has discrete I/O elements and two Pmod connectors for further device evaluation or product development capability. Expansion connectors are provided that are compatible with the Microchip PICtail™ Plus line of expansion modules. In addition to the PIM connector and DIP sockets, a PIC32MX360 microcontroller is also provided for use without the need for additional PIM or DIP socketed processors.

The IR Range Sensor is a great way to add range detection to robotic projects that use Cerebotâ„¢ boards. The sensor detects reflective objects 10 to 80 cm away.
The sensor connects to the ADC found on all Cerebot boards. The cable maps the output pins to a 3-pin connector. The yellow wire is for the analog output signal. The pin should be connected to the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) on your microcontroller. The red wire is the Vcc power supply to the sensor and is diode-protected against reverse polarization. The black wire should be connected to the ground of the ADC.
Connections for 24 volt AC/DC adapter power supply to power the solenoid valve; 9 volt adapter to power both the Basic Stamp II microcontroller and the HiViz Multi-Trigger circuit boards; and DB9 serial port connector for programming the Basic Stamp microcontroller, which uses a serial-to-USB converter from Parallax.com.
