Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Electronics prototyping platforms such as Arduino enable a wide variety of creators with and without an engineering background to rapidly and inexpensively create interactive prototypes. By opening up the process of prototyping to more creators, and by making it cheaper and quicker, prototyping platforms and toolkits have undoubtedly shaped the HCI community. With this workshop, we aim to understand how recent trends in technology, from reprogrammable digital and analog arrays to printed electronics, and from metamaterials to neurally-inspired processors, might be leveraged in future prototyping platforms and toolkits. Our goal is to go beyond the well-established paradigm of mainstream microcontroller boards, leveraging the more diverse set of technologies that already exist but to date have remained relatively niche. What is the future of electronics prototyping toolkits? How will these tools fit in the current ecosystem? What are the new opportunities for research and commercialization?

Prototyping Futures
- 2012
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Prototyping Futures gives you a glimpse of what collaborating with academia might look like. Medea and its co-partners share their stories about activities happening at the research centre – projects, methods, tools, and approaches – what challenges lie ahead, and how these can be tackled. Examples of highlighted topics include: What is a living lab and how does it work? What are the visions behind the Connectivity Lab at Medea? And, how can prototyping-methods be used when sketching scenarios for sustainable futures? Other topics are: What is the role of the body when designing technology? What is collaborative media and how can this concept help us understand contemporary media practices? Prototyping Futures also discusses the open-hardware platform Arduino, and the concepts of open data and the Internet of Things, raising questions on how digital media and connected devices can contribute to more sustainable lifestyles, and a better world.

Hidden Issues in Deploying an Indoor Location System
- 2007
-
Ingår i: IEEE pervasive computing. - : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). - 1536-1268 .- 1558-2590. ; 6:2, s. 62-69

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Installing indoor location system prototypes yields practical lessons about how to design and deploy future ubiquitous technologies. The design of context-aware technologies has been on many research team agendas since Mark Weiser first described his ubiquitous computing vision. Determining the location of people and objects in indoor environments with a high degree of accuracy is a main technical obstacle to achieving this vision.

Delivery number 4.2 : Report on Final STEM Learning Kit with Integrated Learning Analytics for Trials
- 2014
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This deliverable is an overall status report on the technical development and kit design made within the PELARS project prior to launching a series of trials with students within three different learning scenarios.The document presents a series of tools: hardware, software and crafting materials that will both enable the students perform a series of tasks, but also get real time feedback about the state of their projects. The feedback will also be sent to the teachers to inform them about potential issues faced by the students, allowing them take actions there where it is most needed.The tools here presented have been developed for the project based on the research made mainly as part of workpackages WP2 and WP4, but also on the technical descriptions of WP5.When it comes to the technical development, it advanced faster than anticipated, thanks to a relocation of human resources, what allowed the project to be presented at Ars Electronica in September 2015 and fulfill some of the partners’ plans for trials with students to start in late October 2015. At the time of writing 4 different series of boards have been produced adding up to more than 700 circuits of 13 different types that will be put in the hands of students during the different trials.The electronic development platform is now called TALKOO kits (formerly known as PELARS kits) that together with the PELARS crafting materials and the PELARS visualization tool will be at the core of the trials to be performed with groups of university students in interaction design and engineering, as well as high school students in different countries. PELARS has an extensive trial plan that is described in WP7’s deliverables and that builds on the results of this deliverable D4.2.

Delivery number D2.1 : Datasheets for SandS Motherboard and Modules
- 2013
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The scope of deliverable 2.1 is to create a series of datasheets for the different hardware designs created for the SandS project members to prototype connected appliances. These designs are part of the work made by Arduino during Workpackage 2 and set the ground for the different partners to understand how the different electronic blocks can be used as part of SandS work.This deliverable will be complemented by D2.2, which will focus more on the software that can be created to control different types of appliances, as well as in a series of practical documents to help the partners getting started in using the modules described in D2.1.This deliverable is a compendium of:different datasheets for each one of the modules createda datasheet for the SandS motherboada document describing the communication protocol between the modulesa folder with the firmware created for all the modules

Delivery number D2.2 : Report on Thinking Appliance Manual
- 2014
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This document summarizes the way how the SandS hardware ecosystem can be deployed inside an appliance and programmed to connect to the internet and, by extension, to the SandS infrastructure.This deliverable builds on top of D2.1 that was dedicated to describing the SandS hardware. In this case, we focus in the ways the different elements can be configured and reprogrammed. It also describes the tools created specifically for the project in order to reprogram the appliances.Together with this deliverable, we provide a series of documents that look in more detail into the different parts of the system. The following documents are referred to throughout the deliverable:D2-2_Getting-Starter-Guide_SandS_motherboard.pdf: explains how to configure the drivers and how to upload Arduino code to the SandS motherboardD2-2_Getting-Started-Guide_SandS_I2C_configuration_tool.pdf: explains how to connect a series of modules to a SandS motherboard and configure them from a command line interfaceD2-2_Getting-Started-Guide_SandS_cross_compiler.pdf: explains how to create an SDK to compile code that can be uploaded to the Linux part of the SandS motherboardD2-2_Built_In_Oven_Remote_Extension_Protocol.pdf: specifies the communication over serial port towards Gorenje's HomeChef oven. This serves as an example of how to get the SandS motherboard to talk to devices that offer a serial port connection

Educational Robots with Arduino : Annotated Prototypes
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Educational Robotics in the Context of the Maker Movement. - Cham : Springer. - 9783030181413 - 9783030181406 ; , s. 161-174
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper introduces the experiments realized by Arduino Education in the field of educational robotics. The paper, written as a collection of annotated exemplars, covers a series of prototypes, kits, and full educational programmes which were tested with students of different ages and educators. Some projects are of a do-it-yourself (DIY) nature, a property we came to describe as DIY-ness, while some others have been manufactured and served to tens of thousands of students. There are however things in common that can help others in the conceptualization, development, and deployment of educational robotics initiatives.
