Tinkerers take note, because Arduino has launched its new Esplora controller, which just so happens to be customizable and open source. The Esplora is derived… ...

While there are a couple of open-source brushless drivers already available, [neuromancer2701] created his own brushless motor controller on an Arduino shield.

Arduino Shields, like the Xbee wireless communicator, aren’t compatible with the Esplora out of the box, but any existing Arduino software should work with the new pre-assembled controller.

Engineers and developers looking for a programmable logic controller (PLC) might be worth checking out the new CANADUINO Arduino MEGA 2560 compatible PLC which has been created by Universe Solder ...

This paper presents a real-time power factor correction controller using Arduino, aimed at improving the efficiency of electrical systems with inductive loads.
