Arduino Fio
From bildr
- Manufacturer: [Sparkfun]
Funnel is a toolkit to sketch your idea physically, and consists of software libraries and hardware. By using Funnel, the user can interface to sensors and/or actuators with various programming languages such as ActionScript 3, Processing, and Ruby.
Arduino Fio is compatible with Funnel. It has connections for a Lithium Polymer battery and includes a charge circuit over USB. An XBee socket is available on the bottom of the board.
The Fio has been designed to be wirelessly reprogrammable. To bootload new firmware, you will need an external serial connection over an FTDI Basic, cable, or other serial connection.Note: The XBee socket and FTDI connection live on the same TX/RX pins of the ATmega328.
- Note: The miniUSB connector can only be used to power the board, or charge the battery. The battery can be charged while powering the board.
- You will need to remove the XBee module while reprogramming over serial. We recommend using a wireless bootloader whenever possible to avoid this step.
