Arduino & Actionscript - The resources

Things are getting busy again, but finally managed to get a bit of time to put the materials together from my talk at LFPUG

You can download the resources here.
The zip contains the slides(pdf), a readme file with instructions on how to setup your files for Arduino and how to configure serproxy.

The video recording of the talk is available (thanks Influxis)




If you have any problems comment on this page or send me an email.

Thanks again to Tink for the opportunity to talk at LFPUG and big thanks to disturb media for supporting me
with the presentation. The slide design is crafted by Jason Turner.

Big thanks to Daniel Hirschmann
for the awesome course taught at Goldsmiths. Remember, there are lot of good resources on the Physical Computing Wiki . Feel free to make use of Daniel's mailing list([physcomp][at][lists.plankman.com]).

This post should be on the disturb blog, but at the moment, Jace is a bit busy making sandwiches.

Conrad's talk will be at Flash On the Beach.
Disturb have a few surprises for you there.

See y'all offline !

Arduino & Actionscript - The talk

Tink was kind enough to allow me to give a talk at the London Flash Platform User Group later this month.

I will be presenting an introduction to Arduino, sensors, actuators and all that geeky goodness.
There will be a few demos on how to communicate between Arduino and Actionscript, so hopefully,
is hardware doesn't fail, this will be pretty fun.

With years of experience in OOD, frameworks and TDD, Conrad Winchester will giving a talk before me on the Robotlegs micro-architecture.

If you're in London, do sign up and drop by RG/A's office in Clerkenwell as they will be hosting the talks this month.

Otherwise, stay tuned, video and slides will be posted here after the talk.

Speaking at London Flash Developers and Designers Meetup Group

I will be giving a talk on the 22nd of April at The London Flash Developers and Designers Meetup Group.

The talk will be about JSFL(Javascript Flash) and hopefully will help attendees getting started with automating aspects of the Flash IDE. Although there is some scripting involved, there are quite a few things in for designers/animators that use Flash as well. We will be looking at how to create some basic commands then move on to traversing the timeline and accessing the data of various elements.

Tired of doing the same tasks again and again in Flash ? Come a long and see how you can make it all easier.

The Flash Meetup takes place at London South Bank University in the Keyworth Building,
this Thursday at 7 PM. More details on the Meetup page.
