[Controllers] [sudo-discuss] Controllers Digest, Vol 2, Issue 2

[Romy Ilano]

Hol,

Oh, d'oh -- actually the lilypad arduino isn't broken. I poked around and
the Arduino IDE wasn't set correctly to the lilypad--I had it set to a
standard Arduino (uno). So that's why it wasn't able to upload my sketches.

So if you are getting into the lilypad make sure the arduino ide on your
computer has that settings set up!

My circuit didn't work--I'm getting another alligator clip system before I
start sewing. Wearable electronics are tricky because it's easy for the
threads to cross the wires, and sometimes it seems the connections don't go
through.

- on another site (becky stern's) I saw that using clear nailpolish to seal
the end of the threads is a good idea.

I started putting stuff up on gitorious and github - hope to eventually get
more people to get into this!
