During Wednesday’s meeting of the Michigan ActionScript User Group, we covered what AIR Native Extensions are, where to find the best ones, and how to actually use them.  Includes demos from both Desktop AIR and Mobile AIR projects. The two locations to find some of the more popular ANEs are : http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air.html http://extensionsforair.com/

Hardware Hacking with Flex and the Arduino

3 Comments Posted by on March 28, 2010

This weekend I had a chance to play some more with the Arduino that I got at 360|Flex.  I’ve got so many ideas of things I want to build with it, which is probably a bad thing.  I’ve got $60 worth of parts coming from SparkFun just so I can play with more than a [...]
