I've got this board in front of me. Its got lots sockets, buttons, LEDs, and a couple of other 'peripherals' with which I've yet to acquaint myself. I'm wondering, what is it that can be 'done' with this board that makes it all the rave? What am I missing?
The projects I've been planning, so far, are fairly stand alone, without any board-to-pc interfacing. You write your code, program your chip and the rest 'should' happen on its own. Like a toy car that takes inputs from sonar sensors (collision avoidance) and steers away from obstacles. Or an attachment for a digital camera (transceiver.
I'm wondering how do other people use this (or other) development boards?
