We are absolutely astonished with the projects submitted to our Netduino contest on Hackster.io. Thanks to every one of you who contributed your Netduino project ideas and projects! We’re at the beginning of the connected things revolution, in which many of these efforts are…
Effective immediately, we’ve made a huge price cut on our highest end Netduino models! As of today, July 26, 2018, we’ve lowered the price of a Netduino 3 WiFi from $69.95 USD to $50.00 USD, and a Netduino 3 Ethernet from $59.95 USD to…
In part 1 of this blog series, we looked at the dehydrator system as a whole. In this post in the dehydrator hacking series, we’re going to explore how to control the fan and heater in the dehydrator using relays to regulate temperature. We’ll explore…
Hey folks! We added automatic User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcast support to Maple Server that makes discovering and connecting to your Netduino-powered connected things a breeze. UDP allows you to broadcast a name and IP of your Netduino on a local network, so that…
In this blog series, I document the process of creating a smart appliance out of my dehydrator. Along the way, I’ll show you just how easy it is to create a sophisticated, connected appliance with Netduino.Foundation, which makes hardware development a plug-and-play experience. We’ll…
Today, non-mobile connected devices outnumber mobile phones 4:1; in just a few years, connected things will outnumber mobile phones 10:1, with 75 billion connected devices predicted by 2025. Powered by microcontrollers and commodity hardware advancements, nearly all new products will be connected. We’ve partnered…
When building connected things, the need to provide info to the user and allow interaction and input quickly surfaces. However, building display screens, menus, and providing a way to edit parameters, configure settings, etc, quickly becomes an enormous task. Enter Netduino.Foundation’s TextDisplayMenu: TextDisplayMenu is…
This year, we participated at Maker Faire Bay Area where we got to see the latest creative inventions, meet enthusiasts of all types, and pass out over 800 bags of freshly popped popcorn! For those who participated in our raffle giveaway, thank you. Special…
We’ve been hacking some pretty cool things over here at Wilderness Labs. We’re about to post a couple of new awesome projects including a smart chicken coop, and food dehydrator you can control with your phone! But as we got building them, it became…
Servos were once the domain of remote control cars and airplanes, but today, they’re used in all kinds of IoT projects and have become an essential ingredient in robotics. In fact, many robots rely solely on servos for movement! Netduino.Foundation’s ServoCore library just got…
