I gave a talk at this year's RubyConf last month in Orlando about programming the Arduino in Ruby using my Ruby Arduino framework (RAD). They just made video of the talk available and I thought some of you might be interested in seeing it:
When I started looking to learn physical computing and researching what micro-controller I wanted to buy to start this process, it was the RAD project that put me over the edge in choosing Arduino.
Thank you for posting this video, it was nice to see the break down of the 'Black Magic' that goes into turning a RAD project into asm for the board.
Keep up the good work, hope to get over to RubyConf for next year.
Thanks, salernos! That's great to hear that RAD inspired your to get into Arduino. That's the main thing that made me want to make RAD: helping more people discover Arduino, especially Ruby people who are some of the best people around.
