    Aduino IDE on N900?

    Reply
    jkman82 | # 1 | 2010-02-13, 23:10 | Report

    Just wondering if there is any chance the arduino IDE can be ported/run on the N900? I understand that it would not be able to communicate over usb, but could that be solved by using bluetooth? I have searched but all I have found are things like the PUSH competition and the N900 Hackers guide, but it says nothing of using the arduino ide on the N900. Thanks

    I'm a bit confused?

    You posted this new thread at 6:10pm today (Using UK time here, as that is what i see)

    At 10:33 you chase it - with no answer.

    At 11:10 - you create a new post for exactly the same subject?


    You need to realise not everyone on here is an expert, and sometimes it does take a few days to get a decent response, constantly going on about the same thing, and re-inventing the same post within hours is not helpful.

    If you have no answer after 24 hours, bump the post

    i'd suggest also, if you have searched and have found nothing, and i mean nothing at all, then there are chances it has not been done yet....

    Thank you for wasting my time and yours, mr noobmonkey sir. You are an excellent post tracker..touche. I meant no harm asking my question and figured I would try in a more suited section.

    hehehe - sorry wasn't meant rudely - i just like hunting through the forums for interesting reads - seeing the same post is a bug-bear of mine

    Good luck on the answer though - seen some cool stuff done with them before

    Bump...Any takers? the more I think about it, the more unrealistic it seems.

    I will love to be able to program my Arduino boards from N900. I have a board in a very hard to get place in my house, and my 17" laptop doesn't have a battery... I get mad, dirty and sweaty every time when I have to reprogram it. :-)

    i'm intrigued for an answer though (And yes still reading threads lol........)

    dig a bit more, find info on how arduino dev takes place now.
    show us the ide, the requirements, how to guides, how it works.

    get people interested in what the arduino is and how the ide might help.
    dig and find answers yourself first, things like is it open source, requires a specific OS, etc

    will the usb really be a problem since we know they can communicate effectively over bt

    be knowledgeable about your subject
    hope it stimulates more conversation.

    what have you done with arduino yourself, what got you interested?

    First off, thank you for your response! Second, just thought I would tell you how much I admire liqbase, seems like a truly amazing application. It is a HUGE reason why I will be purchasing an n900 in the near future (lack of funds at the moment). To get back on topic, I will post a more indepth description of Ardunio and its IDE tomorrow, have to get up early for class tomorrow

    To be honest with you, I am a 20 year old Biology major. I have only began to explore the surface of embedded electronics, linux, and specific communities such as maemo. I spend much of my (almost non-existent ) free time reading books and tutorials, gathering as much knowledge as I can retain/ understand at once. The process has been slow but fun.

    SO FAR, all I have done with my arduino is get it to run a few basic "sketches". I have pieced together a nice little kit and have began to experiment using a breadboard to build simple circuits.
    What got me into Arduino is some what of a lengthy story, but in short I find embedded electronics (as well as linux and maemo) to be very intriguing and before I started to learn more about it, it all seemed very confusing, which, made it that much more interesting. I can tell you I honestly have no idea what I plan to make with it all. What I do plan to do is keep having fun, and keep enjoying the learning process of it all.


    Edit: I have actually been running a linux box for a few years now, but it wasn't until last year that I took the time to understand what really lies behind the gui.

    As an Arduino/N900 user myself, perhaps I can shed some light on the situation.

    Arduino is more or less an open-source microcontroller board with various functions that are as limited as the stretches of your imagination. It is programmed using "sketches" (programs) written in the Arduino development environment based on the open-source Processing language. Basically, it's an open-source microcontroller board that can be programmed to take any number of functions from the excruciatingly simple to the extremely complex.

    It's certainly an interesting platform, and is great for hobbyists and those interested in electronics. Arduino can also fit a bunch of different needs. There are many well-documented arduino projects around the web; a quick search of google can elaborate further. The open-source boards are also pretty cheap, enabling realistic real-life use in many different scenarios. Any link that can be made between the N900 and an Arduino project would be extremely interesting.
