This is geared towards my iPhone 4s, but really any BLE (Bluetooth 4.0) enabled device will work.The first thing is to go out and read this: https://learn.adafruit.com/getting-started-with-the-nrf8001-bluefruit-le-breakout/introductionor this: https://learn.adafruit.com/downloads/pdf/getting-started-with-the-nrf8001-bluefruit-le-breakout.pdfDone? Good.Previous tutorials have worked with the SainSmart OLED which uses a 1306 SSD (the code for this can also be found at Adafruit for their graphics - https://learn.adafruit.com/monochrome-oled-breakouts/arduino-library-and-examples).The nrf8001 …

SD Card and Arduino Nano
In a follow up to my last post I decided that since I was integrating these sensors on a Nano I should actually prove that as well.I took to the Arduino Nano schematic so I could figure out which pins are which.http://arduino.cc/en/uploads/Main/ArduinoNano30Schematic.pdfI don't remember where I found this PNG (one of the Aruino forum posts), …
SD Card and Arduino Mega
I purchased this awesome little SD card breakout from Sparkfun about 2 years ago https://www.sparkfun.com/products/12941 - a lot of family issues came up and I wasn't able to work on it with the kids like I wanted to. With some recent work I'm doing with sensors (more blog entries to follow) I also know I'll need to …

TRX – W7D3
I was pretty bummed yesterday about not losing weight. I felt like I had hit a lull and was questioning working out. I almost let that little naggy-quitting-voice convince me I should stop and I almost didn't workout today.This morning, however, I was given welcome news by my scale - which prompted me to tape …
