New Low cost USB Hardware for FlowStone

We have added some open source examples for the new PIC Clicker board from MikroElektonika!

PIC Clicker only $19 USD!

This USB HID programmable board has a 'mikro Bus' socket for any of the 70+  Click interface boards.

We have created various example projects including FlowStone projects .hex firmware files as well as the source code in C++ for the board.

These can be found here:

IR Temp sensor

7 Segment Display

3 Axis Accelerometer

Relay Board

RS485 to DMX 512 (disco light protocol)

Each has a FlowStone example similar to this:

There is also an example that turns the bare board into a FlowBoard mini DAQ!

The PIC Clicker and Click boards are available from MikroElektonika HERE or RS Components now Stock these HERE

DSPRobotics Launch FlowStone V3.04 (BLUEBIRD)

Today DSPRobotics launched FlowStone V3.04! Some of the highlights include a new DLL system allowing you to make your own components using external dlls! This means you can integrate your own high speed code written in C for example, yet keep it private, effectively making a plugin for FlowStone.
There is also a new feature for education allowing you to make limited tool boxes for lesson planning so the tool box will only contain the components needed for that particular project.

FlowStone is available with 12 months updates for $249.00 or $149.00 without updates.
