How to Arduino - a video toolbox
I've begun producing a new series of video tutorials for the hobbyist new to the Arduino or microcontrollers in general. My videos are very pragmatic - I prefer to answer the question "what is the quickest, simplest and most affordable way to accomplish this?". The videos are meant to be a quick source of "how to" knowledge for the hobbyist that is using an LCD display, ultrasonic sensor or accelerometer for the first time, for example. I hope you enjoy this series of videos, and if there are any requests for specific topics you'd like to see covered, please put them in the comments below.
A little behind-the-scenes info. I am shooting with multiple cameras for the first time. While filming, I'm constantly rolling video capture on my Mac, a JVC camcorder aimed directly at the project, then another camera from a wider angle. Pretty happy with the results I'm getting so far, being able to easily change the camera angle in post-production in Final Cut Pro is incredible. Not having to worry about camera angles while working/talking frees me to concentrate more on the subject matter at hand. Hope you enjoy!
