Let’s add a graphic touch display to our Arduino-like boards, with dedicated hardware and three libraries. After showing you four prototyping boards from the Fishino series (UNO, Fishino 32, MEGA, Guppy… and the fifth is on its way!), we started to feel the need to propose some electronics on the side. In particular,…
Our Arduino compatible board Fishino acquires a new functionality, upload and updating of sketches over wireless, without the need of a wired connection. Being able to program the Fishino board on the field, without physically connection to the USB port of a computer nor being limited to the IDE Arduino/Fishino, that was one of…

We wanted to interview her to understand how she has achieved this popularity and to understand what she thinks of the OpenSource world. Boris Landoni – You…
How to make an electronic business card that says something about you. For people working in the electronics business, especially for manufacturing companies of printed circuits, it is now fashionable to give away your business card engraved on a PCB. Starting from this idea, we went beyond and ask ourselves: “Since…
Here comes a new board for prototype creation of connected applications and in IoT: richly equipped with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC and a battery for autonomously operation. It almost sounds like the last name of a noble or Royal family, instead, it identifies the latest board (the name is almost in antithesis with its order…
