I’m reading the Horizon Report of 2010 and it states that the key trends of 2010 in terms of emerging educational technologies are mobile computing and open content, but I’m mostly interested in the fact that gesture-based computing and visual data analysis are listed as technologies with time to adoption 4-5 years. I say let’s hook up Android with Arduino and mix it up with Processing, that will speed things up!

Arduino Project Idea: Arduino + Android (+ Bluetooth or WiFi) – How about a bunch of blinking LEDs when you get a missed call? Or even controlling a servo with your phone’s accelerometer?
UPDATE: It seems that someone is already on it! A quick search gave me this this interesting Amarino toolkit!

If you are interested in open hardware, the Arduino or interactive systems and physical computing in general, download and watch the Arduino workshop by Prof. Jan Borchers of RWTH Aachen University from iTunes U [here].
The whole course “Designing Interactive Systems I & II” is quite interesting. (A course on e-learning is also available by the same University in iTunes U.)
