A few days ago, Arduino opened a new section on their site. It's called Arduino Labs.
From the Arduino Blog:
Today we open Arduino Labs, a new website we have been working on for a few weeks that will allow us to post documentation about projects we are working on that are not ready to be “official” yet.
We want to have a more open development process within the Arduino project and this is one of the many steps that are getting us there.
Another function of Labs is to bring closer to Arduino a number of projects made by members of the community that we want to make more official and easier to find.
There are a lot of libraries, for example, developed by great people that sometimes are hard to find or the original maintainer stops working on them at some point. With Labs we’ll be able to create a permanent home for those libraries and give space on our gihub for that code.
Currently, there are two projects available: Mega ADK and GSM/GPRS Shield. The GSM shield is not yet released, but the Mega ADK is and we got it to the store last week. Basically, it is an Arduino Mega board with a built in USB host interface that you can use to connect with your Android phone/tablet (or any other USB device). The Mega ADK site has a step-by-step tutorial that explains how to get started with the Arduino Mega ADK board with your Android device.
So get one of the Mega ADK Boards, start messing with your Android device and link your project in the comments. I would love to see what you are doing with the ADK.
