#15980 Sweet deal for capacitive touch interface

Posted by two schnauzers on 27 July 2011 - 08:01 PM in General Discussion

I just got around to fooling with this and it isn't clear (to me) how to interface this to the Netduino. The video mentions interfacing the the USB but there are no details. I suppose I can look at their SDK but I believe it is C++ and would require some port to Netduino. Has anyone actually interfaced this to a Netduino?

Dumb question. Can this be used with a regular Netduino (not Plus)?

Where is the C# code? I am working on some RGB LED strips to create a sculpture. I use both SetDutyCycle and SetPulse to get a variety of colors and saturation.

Has anyone verified if the drivers will work with LinkSprite CuHead WiFi Shield for Arduino http://www.cutedigi....6d911aa02c5caa0 Is is only $55 (cheaper than the other WiFi shields). I plan on using it with a regular NetDuino (not Plus). Thanks!

#10788 help with SparkFun power driver shield

Posted by two schnauzers on 10 March 2011 - 05:22 PM in General Discussion

I purchased a Power Driver Shield kit from SparkFun http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10305 but could use some help in actually using it.

What I am ultimatly trying to do is control an RGB LED strip (see my previous post on the subject "help driving LED strip lighting" http://forums.netdui...-strip-lighting )

Being a noobie I havent a clue what to do next.

Thanks!

I received (and assembled) my power driver shield kit but am not clear on how to use it

The first thing that is a problem is that it has an ATX power supply connector, when I hook up a power supply and turn it on the fan doesn't run. On a PC the power supply only runs when you press the power switch connected to the motherboard, so I am assuming some of the pins need to be tied together to tell the power supply to run. Anyone know about this? It is of course possible that I did a poor job on soldering the components on the shield, but I used to be a Ham Radio operator and was pretty good at soldering, but it has been a while. Anyway I have a meter long LED strip that I want to use, so now I just need to get the shield going.

I think the post you referred to will help greatly, thanks! Since my original post I discovered the power driver shield http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10305 and ordered one. The strip I ordered is 5 meters. I didn't realize there are ones with individually addressibe LEDs. I think the one I ordered just has RGB which will turn on all of the same color at once. Anyway thanks for the info, once everything arrives I will let the group know how it works out.

#9170 help driving LED strip lighting

Posted by two schnauzers on 08 February 2011 - 05:28 PM in General Discussion

Hi, I would like to use Netduino to drive RGB LED strip lighting. The strip draws .5 Amp per meter. What sort of add-on board or other devise would I use to take the digital output and control the power to the LEDs? I am interested in the "animating" the LED strip with different colors and patterns. A simple matter of programming :-) Thanks!
