This week we continue the LCD discussion and show you how we got a serial (I2C) interface to an LCD to work.  We also show you a graphical display and the start of a new library we are creating for it.

We also, ordered and received since our last show the LCD shield from sainsmart.  We show you the simple change you need to make to the sample sketches to get them to work with this shield.  Also, how they implemented to buttons to save the number of pins used.

Sensor Fun With Arduino: 1 Massive Failure, but 4 Successes - Episode 6 - Tech-Zen.tv

Let's Make It is a show that is all about making things, in particular electronic things.  During this show we will be using things like Arduinos, PIC chips and Raspberry Pie's to make all kinds of electronic gadgets.

We are making these gadgets to learn how they work.  Not technical, not to worry, we are going to start really simple and teach you as we go along.  All it requires is a desire to want to learn some programming and electronics.

This show is hosted by Mike Myers of Genius Idea Studio.  Mike has many years of designing hardware and developing software for the hardware.

If you have ever followed the Maker Community then this show is for you.  Want to learn some basic programming and electronics?  This is the show to get you started.
