TwDoor - Twitter

Sat, 24 Mar 2012 23:49:00 +0000

I use Twitter4J library for my sketch. It can let Processing(JAVA) work with Twitter.
“Processing code is converted to straight Java code (using the “preprocessor”) “
—-Processing Wiki Page
It’s a very useful library and can be obtained easily online, and there are many examples there.

This project was mainly done as an excuse to use Arduino+Processing (networking) to update my twitter with Reed Magnet Switch (install on the door), and find out how to use the Arduino to facilitate real hardware and social internet networking link together.

The Reed Switch was bought from MAPLIN-Edinburgh.I used Soldering iron to attach it to the wire so that it could work with my Arduino.

About the LED Matrix I saw some video from Youtube, people use it to make a variety of display effects, so I decided to use it for this project’s display part.

TwDoor - Arduino exercise

Fri, 23 Mar 2012 10:55:00 +0000

In the practical class, I began study Arduino. This my first time to contact the knowledge about arduino. When I came back my flat, I order a Arduino Kit from Frirzing. My Arduino life started.

I bought a StarterKit with Arduino UNO from Frirzing. This kit contains many helpful components and a completely transparent Project box. However, the wire is very difficult to link together, so some Jumpwire from Ebay was used instead.

In the second tutorial class, I expressed my ideas about possibly monitoring the door lock with arduino .But I had a lot of problems about this project.

So, I started the project to look for ways to solve these problems.

Basic House is a design from Barcelona designer Martin Azua. It couldn’t be more simple. It’s basically a lightweight balloon that you can carry with you in your pocket and use for shelter if you need it.

“Carefree and comfortable travel, customized according to your needs. You can get in the vehicle wherever and whenever you need. It will take you to your destination without any changeovers. During the journey, you can get on with your work, or sit back and enjoy the speed and the luxury. This service will be yours for a fare which is comparable to the prices of present day’s public transport.”

This is not a dream, but a concept that formed the starting point for the development of Superbus as an innovative alternative for today’s personal mobility.
