I hope this is not OT - and if it is - sorry. I recently started "playing" with controlling simple devices using the PI GPIO pins - trivial things like controlling a LED or servo.
I want to experiment with some analog sensors - temperature, magnetic, etc. There are several kits available, but from comments I've read about most of them, they are not "really" meant for the PI and the best way to use them is to connect the PI to an Arduino. I have absolutely no knowledge about the Arduino, but I've seen clones advertised on e-bay for less than $2 - link below. Can anyone tell me if this as actually a working solution and if the low price is actually possible? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1PCS-Pro-Mini-atmega328-5V-16M-Replace-ATmega128-Arduino-Compatible-Nano-/152160908037?hash=item236d7f3305:g:MMcAAOSw2GlXLD~U -- Shlomo Solomon http://the-solomons.net Sent by Claws Mail 3.11.1 - KDE 4.14.5 - LINUX Mageia 5 _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
