Normal - Bluetooth Modem - BlueSMiRF Gold. Normal - Bluetooth. By Mitchell Page Mpag5967 [at] mail.usyd.edu.au Key Centre of Design Computing and Cognition, University of Sydney , Australia Normally you would use a serial USB cable connected from your computer to your Wiring board for receiving data sent from a computer running processing to your board. This tutorial demonstrates how to execute this same process, but wirelessly using Bluetooth. We will test this by being able to turn an LED on/off wirelessly. You will need to use an adaptor to power your board for this tutorial. Equipment: You will need Bluetooth Dongle for you computer and Bluetooth Modem for connecting to Wiring board. And This tutorial was developed for a computer running Windows XP Service Pack 2 (which has included Bluetooth support). Process: Step 1. Step 2 . Step 3. Step 4. Step 5.

Step 6. Step 7. Eg. Step 8. Code: Wiring code – this code will wait for signals from processing. Normal - Arduino playground - Tutorial01. Note: this is not about the official Arduino Bluetooth board.
