This presentation is particularly focused on introducing prototyping technologies, based on the ideas created in Interactive Communication Project - 2010.

1. Prototyping Prototyping lets you fail early and succeed later

2. Introducing technologies, prototyping tools & their capabilities

3. Arduino

4. Arduino details Source: Sparkfun

5. Programming environment The first program to write is blinking LED. That helps identify whether arduino works well. Source: arduino.cc

6. LDR, Infrared, Gas, Alcohol, button, potentiometer, joystick, accelerometer, ultrasonic, peizo, motor, LEDs and many more can be connected to arduino Source: arduino.cc

7. Processing Source: processing.org

8. Flash

9. Quartz composer

10. Max MSP

11. Pure data

12. VVVV

13. Fritzing

14. Fiducials + reacTIVision Fiducials can be connected to processing, VVVV & Max MSP

15. Radio frequency identification

16. Nintendo wii

17. Tinkering with sensor based toys, existing circuits and junks will also help
