This is really interesting. I had a look at AstroDuino this morning on Sourceforge, but the links to the code throw a 403 error???

I've been looking for a method to interface with an Arduino to send pulses, RA and DEC, to the hand controller of my mount, so that I can guide using CdC or Xephem - but I'm not sure that that is an effective/rational/sensible approach to the guiding problem.

Still very much a learner with the Arduino and little idea on how to create a serial interface between my Linux laptop and the Arduino board.

At the moment I use two Arduino boards, one for camera control and dithering via the hand controller and the other for DSLR cooling temperature control. I plan on using the cooling board to implement guiding.
