Open Sound Control (OSC) is a communications protocol that can be seen as a modern alternative to MIDI. It’s specifically designed to play nicely with network communication systems. The probl… ...

Arduino board programmed with an audio file Programmer Mike Tsao has devised a clever method to program an Arduino board using sound.

The SoundDuino Arduino sound shield is capable of working with voltages from 3.3v to 5v and if you use the other Arduino boards, the only pins that you require are GND, VCC, RX, TX.

He likes to build bare bones Arduino clones rather than sacrifice full dev boards, and instead of programming them via traditional means, he is using his computer’s sound card.

Make shows off how to build your own version of that device that's a little smarter and more useful. Make's guide uses an Arduino so you can set specific sound pattern for each outlet in your house.

Lucía Garbo has created an Arduino powered noise pollution monitor, powered by an Arduino Mega micro-controller and housed in a 3D printed case. Other components include a SparkFun Sound Detector ...
