This document provides an introduction and overview of the Netlab Toolkit. It discusses that the Netlab Toolkit has three main parts: Flash Widgets, Hub, and MediaControl. The Hub handles communications between authoring systems like Flash and microcontrollers like Arduino. MediaControl handles MIDI and DMX lighting protocols. The document demonstrates getting started with the Netlab Toolkit by uploading a Firmata sketch to an Arduino, then running example Flash and Processing files that control the Arduino over the Netlab Toolkit. It aims to introduce the basic functionality and usage of the Netlab Toolkit.
