Hello Hans, I am sending this to the list as others might be interested.
I am curious about where to start in designing and building a controller. I have an idea for what I would like to do, but there doesn't seem to be any similar boards on the Arduino cite.
Could you recommend a mailing list or some other group that might provide some info for a "newbie"?
Thanks,
Mike
Which kind of controller are you thinking about? there is a good resource about sensors on http://itp.nyu.edu/physcomp/sensors/Reports/Reports, the arduino forum will answer questions http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl and if you want to start reading then check out phsysical computing book by tom igoe http://itp.nyu.edu/~dbo3/physical/physical.html. physical computing is the term under which microcontroller/electronic hacking runs in new york (I heard that these words don't mean much to anybody else). and you can also ask on the pd list (but be a little bit more specific... marius.

You're referring to a midi controller, perhaps? It's pretty easy to code serial interfaces with other IC's using the arduino, and midi data is also sent using serial. So, it seems feasible. What sort of hardware do you want to interface, and what functions should it perform?

I think the Arduino forums would be a good place to ask about the
possibilities of sensors, etc. I am not quite sure what you are
looking for. Perhaps you can elaborate?
