For the student project, most students continued to use Fubarino, but some of them instead chose to use Arduino. The main reasons for choosing to use Arduino vs. Fubarino in the class were as follows:

Ardulink is a complete, open-source, java solution for the control and coordination of Arduino-type boards. It includes a GUI with many pre-configured components and network client/server technology for remote control. More importantly, it has just released support for chipKIT Uno32!

Newbie programmers, have you ever wanted to program visually by dragging and dropping your "code" instead of tediously writing lines and lines of it? If so, ArduBlock is for you! And Tayeb, of RedAcacia blog, has posted a tutorial to get ArduBlock up and running with your chipKIT board! To get started, you'll need one of the following: [chipKIT

If you are graduating or you know someone graduating, help friends and family find the graduate in a crowd by making a unique graduation hat! This "Instructable" guides you through the process to create a hat that will make you stand out in a crowd of boring graduation hats. This tutorial uses a chipKIT uC32 and WS2812 LED (neopixel) strips!

Have fun! And congratulations to all the graduates!
