This project refers to an Arduino sketch that implements an Arduino Web Controller. Basically, the Arduino works as a network device that can be configured either locally or remotely by a special WEB interface. This technology is not new as it exists in other network devices. For example, routers or network printers are configured through a WEB interface.

This project refers to an Arduino sketch which has the capability to send measurements collected by a light sensor to an account at Twitter to be seen by many through the World Wide Web.
Arduino: True Random Number Generator.
August 14, 2010
This project refers to an Arduino sketch that implements a true random number generator with the help of an audio sensor. The sensor measures the sound volume in the nearby environment. The Arduino acts as a network device with an appropriate WEB interface in it from which we can access the random numbers. This technology is not new as it exists in other network devices. For example, routers or network printers have a WEB interface.
The WEB interface is installed in the Arduino itself and is supported with the help of a simple but quite progressive web server (which is also located within the Arduino). The Arduino is connected to the Internet with a special Ethernet card (Ethernet Shield). The Ethernet card is assigned with a static IP (because the Arduino in this case does not work as a client but as a server since the web server is executed there at port 80).
To enable the sound sensor to collect really random values as regards the volume of sound in the environment, it helps to place it in a noisy room or near a radio.
Arduino: Remote Morse Code Web Encoder.
July 23, 2010
This project refers to an Arduino sketch that implements an online Morse Code web encoder. The Morse Code is until now a global communication system. However, it is now rarely used (it has been previously extensively used in the Navy and the Army in general). In this project, the Arduino works as a server, which remote clients can be connected to with the help of TCP sockets and send occasional messages on a regular alphanumeric form.
For example: “SOS! USA NAVY (12/02/1920, 23:00)”
