Supplies for SSO’2011 (may be shared between 2 or 3 people)
Budget Pack for Arduino (Arduino Uno w/328) – http://www.adafruit.com/products/193 $49.50
Includes:
- Arduino Uno w/Atmega328 – The latest and greatest Arduino revision, assembled and ready to go, including 4 rubber feet to protect the board from the worktable
- 3′ USB cable – Perfect for connecting your Arduino to a computer
- Half-sized Breadboard – 400 connection points, plenty of room for beginner projects, with 2 power rails on the side. Can be rubber-banded to an Arduino to make a 1-penny devboard
- 75 flexible breadboard wires in 8 colors, perfect for use with the solderless breadboard.
- 1K & 10K potentiometer – these pots have 0.1″ spacing and fit very nicely into a breadboard without modification
- 2 small pushbuttons – Snap into the breadboard for button inputs
- 5 bright red diffused LEDs (250mcd) – indicators, blinkies, bright enough to see in the day, but diffused so that they are visible from all angles.
- Red, green and blue ultra-bright LED – Can be used on their own, or color-mixed to make nearly any color in the rainbow!
- 5 100 ohm resistors – They can be used to protect pin outputs when starting out
- 5 1K resistors – Good for use as LED limiting resistors
- 5 10K resistors – Great for pullups & pulldowns
- CdS photocell - A light sensor
2 standard servo motors
