Getting started..... Page 2
The brains of the project.....
The Arduino UNO (SMD version)
One the the stackable bread boards available...
This one has a GPS module fitted just to have a play and become familiar with programming the Arduino
Thanks to Jim for leaning this SkyLab SKM53 GPS module
And also this Accelerometer!
My first go using the Arduino.....
Simple code to drive the display
Using the latest Arduino 1.0 release software....
One of the problems is the new Arduino software (1.0) is incompatibility with some the older sketches and libraries written in previous versions!
For example, the SegBot sketch as supplied by JD uses mySerial BYTE - this now requires the use of Serial.write()
Other changes discovered so far involve the use of SoftwareSerial in place of NewSoftSerial
So I'm not sure what else need changing in the SegBot sketch at this stage.
