“A few days ago I presented at the ADK Google’s blog, a platform that enables communication between Android and Arduino. The downside was that the development kit worth about EUR300.

Today we bring you a scoop. After seeing fellow online who managed to run the ADK in an Arduino with a USB Host Shield controlling a servo or LED, we intend to play all the devices included in the kit but BricoGeek DIY version, with the products we have available in the store.

I received the materials yesterday afternoon and was already working. You can not imagine how much fun, useful and amazing it is to control the Arduino via the phone.”

Droid X Auto Upload Problems in PicPush (and possibly other phones)

Posted by declanshanaghy in Android, PicPush on October 2nd, 2010

This is just a quick note for users out there who are having trouble with auto upload not working on the Droid X and possibly some other phones.

PicPush enables auto upload by default for image and video folders called “Camera”.

Motorola, for some odd reason, decided to store pics on the Droid X in a folder called “100Media”, hence PicPush won’t automatically enable this folder for auto upload.

It can easily be fixed by navigating through the preferences and making sure 100Media is selected for auto upload.

This is setup in “Preferences” -> “Auto Scanner” ->”Image/Video Folders to monitor”

(A fix will be included for this in the app in the future update)

FaxIt Nice’s document conversion system has been supported on the back end by OpenOffice.org since the very first day we went into business. “OpenOffice.org is a multiplatform and multilingual office suite and an open-source project.” We received major help in this integration in our first release from Caolan Mc Namara, one of the developers of OpenOffice, for which we are truly thankful.

This time round, in FaxIt Nice 3.0 we streamlined our integration a little more thanks to a component named JODConverter, provided by “Art of Solving” a software house / IT consultancy firm run by Mirko Nasato in London, U.K.
