Hello and welcome to our online meeting place. Here we will keep up-to-date on meetings, problems, questions and discussions... Save the URL for this wiki: //**kaustworkshop1.wikispaces.com**//

This Week:

 * We will look at the Dragino concept. (We'll be getting one next week!)
 * We will work on details of hardware and software for individual projects.

Last Week:

 * We will Discussed OUTPUT devices in particular
 * Who showed some POWER CONTROL stuff...
 * We will discussed projects people are interested in, using Arduino as the "Engine"
 * We will discussed INTERFACING Input and Output Devices to Arduino

What we're working on and what's Working:

 * Heikki got an LCD Display connected and working, various characters back & forth..
 * Greg got an Arduino Ethernet shield working on on the Internet, creating a web server showing the room temperature
 * Lakshmi is planning a Robot rover with different sensors and a Camera
 * Stephen is designing an Aeroponics plant growing system with Arduino controls
 * Richard is working on a Robot that can balance and move like a Segway.


 * **And we'll discuss: What's Next??**
