I am working on a semi-auto detection idea for Arduino for the Scope project.
It does require a little user intervention but minimal.
It works by just responding to two on screen prompts to unplug and plug Arduino

There are two versions and both work perfectly well and give... (3 Replies)

My favorite projects are always related to the "latest" tech in command and control, networking and network communications. This Elecrow GSM/GPRS/EDGE SIM5360E 3G Shield seems to be the "latest and the greatest" as far as 3G and GPS, as far as I can see so far, but I has it drawbacks for sure.... (6 Replies)
Today I received my NB-IoT Arduino Shield for AIS (Thailand). Here is a "pinout" photo of the shield.

Normally I have very good experiences buying from AliExpress, but in this case with Elecrow, I'm disappointed.

WebService::CIA::Source::DBM(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation WebService::CIA::Source::DBM(3pm)NAME
WebService::CIA::Source::DBM - An interface to a DBM copy of the CIA World Factbook
SYNOPSIS
use WebService::CIA::Source::DBM;
my $source = WebService::CIA::Source::DBM->new({
DBM => 'factbook.dbm',
Mode => 'read'
});
DESCRIPTION
WebService::CIA::Source::DBM is an interface to a pre-compiled DBM copy of the CIA World Factbook.
The module can also be used to make the DBM file, taking data from WebService::CIA::Parser (or WebService::CIA::Source::Web) and inserting
it into a DBM.
A script to do this - webservice-cia-makedbm.pl - should be included in this module's distribution.
METHODS
Apart from "new", these methods are normally accessed via a WebService::CIA object.
"new(\%opts)"
This method creates a new WebService::CIA::Source::DBM object. It takes a hashref of options. Valid keys are "DBM" and "Mode".
DBM is mandatory and should be the location of the DBM file to be used.
Mode is optional and can be either "read" or "readwrite". It defaults to "read".
"value($country_code, $field)"
Retrieve a value from the DBM.
$country_code should be the FIPS 10-4 country code as defined in <https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/appen-
dix/appendix-d.html>.
$field should be the name of the field whose value you want to retrieve, as defined in <https://www.cia.gov/library/publica-
tions/the-world-factbook/docs/notesanddefs.html>. (WebService::CIA::Parser also creates four extra fields: "URL", "URL - Print", "URL
- Flag", and "URL - Map" which are the URLs of the country's Factbook page, the printable version of that page, a GIF map of the coun-
try, and a GIF flag of the country respectively.)
"all($country_code)"
Returns a hashref of field-value pairs for $country_code or an empty hashref if $country_code isn't in the DBM.
"set($country_code, $data)"
Insert or update data in the DBM.
$country_code should be as described above.
$data is a hashref of the data to store (as Field => Value).
"set" overwrites any data already in the DBM under $country_code.
"dbm()"
Returns a reference to the DBM file in use.
