If you need a Max/MSP fix in Lab 246 you’re out of luck. However, we do have PD installed. The Arduino Playground has some info on interfacing with PD. Including PDuino, Firmata firmware and a corresponding PD object.

Music Shield for Arduino

by Seed Studios link. Plays mp3s from a microSD card, 7.5 x 4 cm, and around $30. Seems less bulky than the Waveshield, and an inexpensive way to add sound playback to a hardware project.

The Seeduino Film is an Arduino compatible microcontroller that is flexible and super slim, plus it has a built-in Li-Po battery charger! Great for wearables, or any other project where space is at a premium.

JeeNodes

Simple (i hope) wireless communication for Arduinos! The JeeNode has an ATmega328p processor and an RFM12B radio module. The processor chip is pre-flashed with the Arduino boot loader and a demo sketch. Basically, if you want to send a few bytes of data wirelessly, and don’t want or need the hassle of bluetooth or wifi, JeeNodes might do the trick. Available in the US at moderndevice.com
