On Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd of August, echomaterico had the opportunity of attending a Workshop at NYC-Resistor. The issue was assembling a board designed by Re:farm the city. The experience was incredible, especially because this board, that connects through Arduino, can open new development to all our previous investigation in terms of sustainable integration [...]

This prototyping experiment takes inspiration from a previous project called SLSv1 that was developed between 2006 and 2007. At the time the project was designed there was a critical issue, related with the movement of a structure, that was not solved for lack of experience with Arduino. The structure in picture 1 represents the Seasonal [...]

In the last years I have got in touch with many people enthusiast of a small integrated micro-controller called Arduino. For those of you that never heard about it, Arduino is an assembled electronic board centered around the ATmega328 (a programmable micro-controller with 32KB of flash Memory). The Arduino board is an Italian open source [...]

In this laboratory experiment, the efficiency curve of evacuated tubes solar collector is investigated. The experiment was held in an indoor environment The system is composed by a ten evacuated tube solar collector, a water tank to store the heat, a pump to circulate the fluid and a computer to record temperatures during a range of [...]
