Instant Soup support the following platforms: Wiring Wiring is a programming environment and electronics i/o board for exploring the electronic arts, tangible media, teaching and learning computer programming and prototyping with electronics. It illustrates the concept of programming with electronics and the physical realm of hardware control which are necessary to explore physical interaction design and tangible media aspects. Wiring is an open project initiated by Hernando Barragán (University of Los Andes | Architecture and Design School). Wiring started at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea and it is currently developed at the University of Los Andes.

Top 10 DIY Arduino Projects and HOW-TO Tutorials!
Arduino has been widely popular among hackers and DIY-addicts out there for modding/hacking things. For those of you just entering the Arduino world, here’s a bunch of great Arduino tutorials/projects that can help you jump-start your next project. 1) Did you know that you can program/flash your Arduino wirelessly?
Ani - An animation library for Processing
An animation library by Benedikt Groß for the programming environment Processing. Last update, 2013/02/28. Ani 2.5 is a lightweight library for creating animations and transitions. Easily spoken Ani helps you to move things around on the screen or a bit more abstract, to animate any numeric variable. Most of the time a single line of code like the following one is enough:

CNC611 - Kit entry level per cnc Da 3 a 6 motori passo passo, una meravigliosa scheda di controllo elettronica con 5 input digitali e 2 uscite a relè, cavo di collegamento al PC & more per realizzare la CNC dei tuoi sogni fino a 6 assi. Da oggi nella nuova versione 611 che ha migliorato alcune caratteristiche elettriche (buffering e amplificazione segnali della parallela a ridosso del connettore), rende disponibili nativamente fino a 6 assi ed è di assemblaggio più facile grazie al PCB doppia faccia. Il kit è disponibile in versione De Luxe oppure Chiavi in mano (+20 euro). Nella versione De Luxe occorre saldare i componenti sulla scheda seguendo le istruzioni illustrate passo-passo. La versione Chiavi in mano è già montata con attrezzature professionali e testata, pronta all'uso.
Arduino
Arduino is an open-source computer hardware and software company, project and user community that designs and manufactures kits for building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control the physical world.[1] Arduino boards may be purchased preassembled, or as do-it-yourself kits; at the same time, the hardware design information is available for those who would like to assemble an Arduino from scratch. The first Arduino was introduced in 2005. The project leaders sought to provide an inexpensive and easy way for hobbyists, students, and professionals to create devices that interact with their environment using sensors and actuators.

About controlP5 is a library written by Andreas Schlegel for the programming environment processing. Last update, 07/30/2015.
Stepper motor
Animation of a simplified stepper motor (unipolar)Frame 1: The top electromagnet (1) is turned on, attracting the nearest teeth of the gear-shaped iron rotor. With the teeth aligned to electromagnet 1, they will be slightly offset from right electromagnet (2).Frame 2: The top electromagnet (1) is turned off, and the right electromagnet (2) is energized, pulling the teeth into alignment with it. This results in a rotation of 3.6° in this example.Frame 3: The bottom electromagnet (3) is energized; another 3.6° rotation occurs.Frame 4: The left electromagnet (4) is energized, rotating again by 3.6°. When the top electromagnet (1) is again enabled, the rotor will have rotated by one tooth position; since there are 25 teeth, it will take 100 steps to make a full rotation in this example. A stepper motor (or step motor) is a brushless DC electric motor that divides a full rotation into a number of equal steps. Fundamentals of operation[edit]

PIC vs. AVR smackdown
OK, I know what you people want. You want ultimate fighting, embedded E.E. style. You want to know WHICH IS BETTER, PIC OR AVR? Well, I know what side I'm placing my bets on (AVR of course) but for 99% of beginners, it doesn't matter too much which way you start. Regardless, I'm tired of answering the same questions over & over, so here we go! In the last few years, D.I.Y. electronics has taken a major leap forward with the introduction of powerful yet low-cost, easy-to-program microcontrollers.

DFRobotShop Rover - Arduino Compatible Tracked Robot (Basic Kit)
• Versatile, programmable robot tank kit • Onboard LiPo battery charger• Complete Arduino board built-in (Arduino Uno)• Dual H-bridge and onboard voltage regulator (only one battery needed) • Compatible with a variety of shields • Two XBee areas (2mm 10pin XBee Socket sold separately) and solder prototyping area• No soldering required The DFRobotShop Rover V2 – Arduino Compatible Tracked Robot (Basic Kit) is a versatile mobile robot tank based on the popular Arduino Uno USB Microcontroller Rev 3 microcontroller. The Rover uses the popular Tamiya twin motor gearbox and the Tamiya track and wheel set. The DFRobotShop Rover PCB incorporates a standard Arduino Uno (surface mount ATMega328), L293B motor driver (connected to pins 5 to 8), voltage regulator and prototyping area while contributing to the mechanical structural of the robot. The onboard voltage regulator allows the entire board to be powered using as little as 3.7V to ~9V*.
