Yes, you can put a battery to your Netduino and transfer data to the PC. You can use a wired connection or a wireless one. The easy way to do this is through some third party piece of hardware that supports UART, I2C or SPI protocols to communicate with.

You don't need to open the post before doing the 3D model, you can open after doing it You are doing a great work with Netduino

I just got my Netduino, what I don't understand is the purpose of the little colorful stamp/piece of paper. Also is there a summary of the netduino sdk anywhere. I am an old guy who is used to having a reference other than the code.

It´s a Microsoft Tag http://tag.microsoft...umer/index.aspx it has info encoded in the colors and shapes

I Like! xD

The AT91SAM7X512, AT91SAM7X256 and AT91SAM7X128 differ only in memory sizes. Device - Flash - Flash Organization - SRAM AT91SAM7X512 - 512 Kbytes - dual plane - 128 Kbytes AT91SAM7X256 - 256 Kbytes - single plane - 64 Kbytes AT91SAM7X128 - 128 Kbytes - single plane - 32 Kbytes More info: http://www.atmel.com...ments/6120s.pdf

It's a very funny project!!! I think that it would be awesome for Halloween!

Add it to the Project Showcase Forum, it would be useful for other people in the community http://forums.netdui...oject-showcase/

Yup i realize it doesn't do it for me haha. Just trying to figure out this Coding.
When i programmed Stamps i had a manual that had all the info onthe commands etc.

What I'm trying to say is instead of me guessing the commands and the unit not understanding what i am
trying to tell it. I need a list of commands that make sense to me and the Duino.

I'm guessing there must have been something some where i just can not find it .

Cheers Stew

I think that what you need is this beginner's guide to .net micro framework http://www.tinyclr.c...de to NETMF.pdf

Hi! I know that Netduino is build by Secret Labs but the webpage is very mysterius, only a logo and some contact info. In the forum, Chris is the visible head but I would like to know more about the people that are behind the project, your offices, etc. Some photos in flickr, or some posts in a blog about what are you doing... I would like to snoop around these things

We are very mysterious, aren't we? I guess that's part of what makes us Secret Labs. We're really, really good at keeping secrets (and as you can see with Netduino, we also like making things very open...kind of a fun paradox.)

Shit! I hate secrets! So, I'll wait to have some new news...

p.D: How many people are working on Netduino apart from you?

Wow, I didn´t know that Microsoft gives the opportunity to use a Visual Studio based editor to other companies. I prefer this than the lMPLAB X from Microchip based on Eclipse Incredible!

Unfortunately, Visual Studio-based shell is intended primarily for hosting programming languages and software development tools, it does not come with any compiler (i.e. Atmel uses it just as front-end GUI for their tools). VS IDE can be used to launch third-party compilers/linkers (*) etc., but personally I would like to have C++/CLI for ARM - Microsoft already has ARM compiler for years, in embedded Windows SKDs (CE, now the newest Embedded Compact 7).

(*) I was developing VS IDE for MCS-51 toolchains (i.e. Keil C51, SDCC etc.), but there was a serious issue with custom linker build command that did not support passing multiple inputs, fixing that would require implementation of the complete custom build system - which is now possible due to the new common project system and because the whole build system is based on MSBuild.

Wow, it's very interesting the Visual Studio based shell. I think that it's not being used a lot due to that only works on Windows OS

I use putty too

Sorry for the traffic, but I just found it. Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware.SerialPort in case anyone else is looking.

csh

More info about the changes in SerialPort Class in version 4.1 here: http://www.sjjmicro....aper_Rev1.2.pdf

I had the same problem when I try to use it

No, right now it's not supported. The usb connection is only available to deploy and debug the apps with Visual Studio

Building something similar to Philips Ambilight? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambilight

I have playing with the example on my silly emulator and works great http://forums.netdui...indpost__p__277

I think that is better make the changes now, when the platform is taking off, than later. Anyway, the logical use of a button is to get TRUE when is pressed and FALSE with not, so I prefer change the behavior of the button

Great! I should have waited to that... Now, I'm waiting for my Netduino that is in some place between Canada and Spain

You can make a Live Broadcast using something like UStream

The goal is to write a sample project which works in both places using the same C# code. But we could certainly write an iPhone app in C# too (using Mono). That would be cool. [We have WebOS phones, Windows Mobile phones, iPhones, etc. in the labs.]

But mostly, we got new Windows Phones and wanted an excuse to write some code for them

Chris

What kind of project? I think that is going to be difficult to run a project inside the Windows Phone 7 with the same code that in Arduino because Windows Phone 7 is very restricted

Hi José,



We're working on a new commercial product line using .NET MF and will be sharing 10,000's of lines of code between the .NET MF hardware and Windows Phone. Right now, we're compiling some of that code against .NET CF 3.5 as well.

Windows Phone won't allow GPIO access or direct sockets (yet), but it can share a ton of support classes...

Chris

WoW, I didn't know that kind of compatibility between these two platforms! I'll wait for you project to learn more about that

The SerialPort class is in the Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware.SerialPort because the implementation that the .net mf team did, is not the same that the full .net Framework. They use the Microsoft.SPOT namespace to host the classes from the .Net Framework that are different in the .net MF

Jose,

You did a pretty good job with that simple emulator. By any chance are you going to improve on that emulator with more options? I was thinking about doing it but finding the time is difficult. If you're not going to do it, let me know and I will work on it when I have time. I'm envisioning something similar to this:

http://informatix.mi...edEmulator.aspx

Let me know.

Thanks!

I would like to improve it with more options, but I need two simple things: time and knowledge to do it Something like the Advanced Emulator will be great, what do you think about working together to try to build something like that?

Hi,

I have been playing with the extensible emulator included in the .Net Framework and I have build an emulator where you can run the two basic How To's from the Projects page. I think that it would be possible to develop a more advanced emulator to play with a Netduino without a board in our hands.

I have attached a VS2010 solution with a Emulator and Netduino Application project. First of all, you have to build the Emulator project because when building the project, the emulator is registered automatically in the registry with the project name and is then available for use by other .NET Micro Framework applications. After that, uncomment the example that you want to run, and enjoy with the blinking check boxes
