    Calling volunteers for Maker Faire Rome 2019

    Arduino Team — October 8th, 2019

    Planning to attend Maker Faire Rome later this month? We’re currently seeking volunteers to join our team during the event—staffing tables and displays, helping with demos, and providing technical assistance when necessary.

    If you volunteer with us for one shift, you won’t leave empty-handed! You’ll receive a day pass; spend two days with us, and you’ll have a ticket for the entire weekend to explore the show. Water and snacks will be provided, of course, along with some Arduino goodies.

    Interested? Please fill out this questionnaire and we’ll get back to you soon! If you are under the age of 18, we will need your parents’ permission.

    Hai in programma di partecipare a Maker Faire Roma? Entra a far parte del team di volontari/e all’Arduino booth! Stiamo cercando appassionati/e di Arduino che ci aiutino durante l’evento dando il benvenuto ai visitatori e fornendo assistenza tecnica e supporto durante le demo.

    Con un turno di volontariato allo stand Arduino, avrai a disposizione un pass per l’intera giornata; se, invece, sarai al nostro booth per almeno due turni avrai il pass per i tre giorni di evento. Sappiamo quanto sia importante il tuo tempo e quanto sia fondamentale il tuo aiuto al nostro booth, per questo motivo saremo felici di offrirti il pranzo e un piccolo regalo, ovviamente Arduino.

    Ti interessa aiutarci al booth Arduino? Per favore completa questo form, ti faremo sapere prestissimo!

    Se hai meno di 18 anni puoi partecipare, ma con il consenso firmato dei tuoi genitori!

  • What’s new at Maker Faire Bay Area 2019

    What’s new at Maker Faire Bay Area 2019

    Reading Time: 3 minutes

    It wouldn’t be a Maker Faire Bay Area without some exciting announcements!

    A New Nano Family

    Designed with makers in mind, the new Nano represents a small, powerful and affordable solution for everyday projects. Retaining Arduino’s quality and reliability, they make it easier than ever to turn your project ideas into reality. They are compatible with classic Arduino boards, have low energy consumption, and are equipped with more powerful processors.

    The family is comprised of four different boards:

    Arduino Nano Every – perfect for everyday projects. (Pre-order here with headers or here without headers)

    Arduino Nano 33 IoT – small, secure, and Internet-connected. (Pre-order here with headers or here without headers)

    Arduino Nano 33 BLE – small, low-power, and Bluetooth-connected. (Pre-order here with headers or here without headers)

    Arduino Nano BLE Sense – small, low-power, and Bluetooth-connected with a wide range of on-board sensors. (Pre-order here with headers or here without headers)

    “The new Nanos are for those millions of makers who love using the Arduino IDE for its simplicity and open source aspect, but just want a great value, small and powerful board they can trust for their compact projects,” commented Massimo Banzi. “With prices from as low as $9.90 for the Nano Every, this family fills that gap in the Arduino range, providing makers with the Arduino quality they deserve for those everyday projects.”

    Arduino SIM

    Connect the Arduino IoT Cloud to the world around you! 10MB free data for up to 90 days (5MB per month for $1.50 USD thereafter).

    Arduino SIM is the new cellular connectivity service for the Arduino IoT Cloud. The SIM aims to offer the simplest path to cellular IoT device development in an environment familiar to millions. The cellular service, provided by Arm Pelion Connectivity Management, has a global roaming profile; meaning a single Arduino SIM can be used in over 100 countries worldwide with one simple data plan. Compatible with the MKR GSM 1400 board, it is ideal for connected devices on the go. Arduino SIM is currently only available in the U.S. — more information can be found here.

    If you’re coming along to the faire, remember to bring along your MKR GSM 1400 board and we’ll give you a free SIM to try out!

    Arduino Certification Program: Arduino Fundamentals

    The Arduino Certification Program (ACP) is an Arduino initiative to officially certify Arduino users at different levels and confirm their expertise in key areas. Arduino Fundamentals, representing the first level of the ACP, is now available in the U.S. — access to the exam can be purchased either in combination with the Arduino Starter Kit or as a standalone exam.  

    But Wait, There’s More!

    If you’ll be in San Mateo, don’t miss Massimo Banzi’s ‘State of Arduino’ talk on Saturday at 2pm PT on the Center Stage, where he will reveal more news and updates!

  • When in Rome: Join us at Europe’s Biggest Maker Faire!

    When in Rome: Join us at Europe’s Biggest Maker Faire!

    Reading Time: 3 minutes

    We’re just days away from Maker Faire Rome — The European Edition, where we will be partnering with Microchip in Pavilion 8.  This year’s booth will be broken up into three areas:

    • Education: The Arduino Education team will be exhibiting the flagship CTC 101 program and the Engineering Kit. Starting at 11am, there will be 15-minute demos every hour that address the ways Arduino can be implemented as a learning tool from primary schools all the way up to universities.
    • Makers: We have been working on a pair of new projects to highlight the key specs and possible use cases of the Uno WiFI. Moreover, visitors will have the opportunity to meet the winner of the Arduino /Distrelec Robotics & Automation Contest.
    • Internet of Things: This section will be focused around a smart greenhouse connected to the Arduino IoT Cloud, along with two demos of the MKR Vidor 4000. Finally, we will be showcasing some practical demos on how startups and companies have turned to Arduino to bring their products and services to market.

    The Arduino booth will also include a special station dedicated to the Arduino Store, where will be giving away 500 discount vouchers for online purchases on a first come, first serve basis.

Those heading to Rome over the weekend (December 1st -3rd) are invited to swing by our booth at Pavilion 7 (Interaction) and join us for some inspiring talks. This year, Arduino will also be operating the official Maker Shop with plenty of products and ideas that can help you find original gifts for the holiday season.

    The Booth

    We’ve been preparing a series of demos for adults and kids at the booth to showcase the new Arduino Education products and programs, as well as the latest developments of the MKR family boards and IoT solutions. Moreover, you’ll have the opportunity to learn more about the AUG (Arduino User Group) Program, meet the winner of the Arduino MKR FOX 1200 Contest, and play with an interactive installation by Supsi University!

    The Store

    At Pavillon 7 (close to the Arduino booth), there will be a Maker Shop by Arduino selling most of the Arduino products (including the recently announced Arduino MKR WAN 1300 (LoRa) and Arduino MKR GSM 1400). You’ll also find some other interesting kits and holiday gift ideas for kids, makers and developers, plus a selection of Arduino goodies.

    Talks

    Our team will even be a part of Maker Faire Rome’s program with several talks and presentations on Arduino innovations, new products, and partnership programs. The schedule is as follows:
