Journal Entry 2

I ordered ‘Arduino Starter Kit’ via internet last Friday. While waiting for shipping, I am surfing around Arduino.cc and Make magazine website. To decide what exact project I am going to do with Arduino between three rough ideas (1. brain wave sensor + Arduino + iPhone Siri / 2. Quadcopter / 3. LED display), I searched and considered many things such as cost, my programming ability, practicality of the project, and so on. I googled ‘Arduino projects’ and looked tons of + tons of clips =) After all, I decided I will make something with LEDs with Arduino. It is relatively easier and cheaper than the others I believe. I was intrigued by ‘Korean word clock‘ at first, and I got fascinated by Arduino + nixie tube clock. Nixie tube is about $10 per piece on the internet. I would like to make a Clock using Arduino and nixie tubes.

Useful links for me :

Arduino.cc LED tutorial

Ladyada.net LED basic tutorial

Makezine Korea

Nixie tubes retailer

  1. Like the idea, went through some of your links too and it seems like you should be easily able to do this. How long did it take you to get all this info?
