Firmata is a generic protocol for communicating with microcontrollers from software on a host computer. It is intended to work with any host computer software package. Right now there is a matching object in a number of languages. It is easy to add objects for other software to use this protocol. Basically, this firmware establishes a protocol for talking to the Ardui

The DS18B20 is a very small thermometer which can be easily hooked into the Arduino MCU through any digital input! It requires very little in the way of additional support, a couple of resistors and some hookup cables and you're set to go. For more information on the DS18B20 check out [Maxim-IC].

OneWire Library OneWire lets you access 1-wire devices made by Maxim/Dallas, such as temperature sensors and ibutton secure memory. For temperature sensors, the DallasTemperature library can be used in conjunction with this library.

Your Arduino can tell you. With an Arduino board and a DS18B20 digital temperature sensor, you can easily build a digital thermometer, a thermostat to turn devices on/off at certain temperatures, a safety device to power off when something gets too hot, etc.

An old rotary phone can be used for a number of purposes in your Arduino projects - use it as a novel input device, or use the Arduino to interface a rotary phone to your computer.

Arturo Vidich, Sofy Yuditskaya, and I needed a way to read brains for our Mental Block project last fall. After looking at the options, we decided that hacking a toy EEG would be the cheapest / fastest way to get the data we wanted. Here’s how we did it.
