Arduino Wireless Programming with XBee Series 1 or 2 -Use Arduino for Projects Hi. This Instructable will guide you through the process of wirelessly programming your Arduino using two XBees. I just finished designing a wireless EEG system with the XBee modules, so I’ve become quite fluent in their programming and have just now been able to accomplish this. Being able to wirlessly program your Arduino can come in immensly handy. Its my first Instructable so any feedback would be much appreciated! In order for you to accomplish this you will need to: 1) Have two XBees. For example, I used: 1) Two series 2 modules. 2) A USB explorer for connecting to my laptop, and a explorer regulated for connecting to my circuit. 3) A ATMEGA328p-pu microcontroller that was soldered onto a shield. Step 2: Circuit And Code
Make a Simple RC (Remote Controlled) Robot Car - Embed Journal Whether you are an engineering student building a multi terrain vehicle or an electronics hobbyist trying to impress people with your skills, making a RC robot car (wireless) is much better than the wired robot which you will have to tail while driving. This is not exactly a robotics project. By definition, a robot is something that makes a decision based on some external parameters. Objectives We will discuss a basic ‘Land Rover’ with nothing. The emphasis is just on the mechanical design and some basic circuitry. Things you will need: Most of the components that we will be using are really common and can be bought in local electronics stores. Just be extra cautious when buying the RF Rx-Tx module.

Taller de Arduino En este proyecto vamos a utlilizar una secuencia de leds y los iremos prendiendo y apagando uno después del otro. Primero en un sentido y luego en el sentido inverso. El circuito es muy similar al que hemos utilizado en los proyectos anteriores con leds, como en el de dos leds intermitentes, pero ahora lo haremos con más pares de leds y resistencias. Puedes poner todos los leds que quieras o todos los que te quepan en el protoboard ¿Cual sería la limitante? - al inicio Componentes arduino protoboard 7 leds 7 resistencias de 220 oms (rojo, rojo, café) Circuito Éste es otra vez prácticamente el mismo circuito que el de un led intermitente, en éste caso colocaremos un número mayor de leds con sus respectivas resistencias, conectados cada uno a un pin del Arduino. Aqui es importante que los conectemos a pines consecutivos del Arduino, en la descripción del sketch, veremos la razón de ésto. Diagrama Código El ciclo for tiene tres parametros o partes. Variantes Cambia la duración del delay().
H-Bridges – the Basics | Modular Circuits You can learn how to build h-bridges from many on- and off-line resources. After all these circuits are not terribly complicated. Some of those resources are good, some are not so much. However when I’ve started working with them, I’ve realized that many of my experiences were not documented and some of the things I’ve learned seemed to be missing from those descriptions. This work started off as a three-part series I’ve written, while developing the µModule H-bridge. My intention is to cover more ground than most articles I’ve seen on the subject. My plan is to eventually expand these articles to cover not just h-bridges but control circuits and electromechanical systems as well. In general an H-bridge is a rather simple circuit, containing four switching element, with the load at the center, in an H-like configuration: The switching elements (Q1..Q4) are usually bi-polar or FET transistors, in some high-voltage applications IGBTs. Static Operation Similarly for side-B: Motor model

8 alternatives to the Raspberry Pi : Page 2 A favorite of the maker and tinkerer community, the Raspberry Pi microcomputer has inspired people to create some amazing things from home automation systems to time-lapse photography rigs. At $35, the computer is at a price that most DIYers can afford which is a large part of its success, but it's also a very stripped down computer. Lately, a range of microcomputers have come on the market trying to steal some of the Raspberry Pi's thunder, many of which have more processing power and features. If you're in the market for some hardware to use in your next genius project, click through for 8 Raspberry Pi alternatives. Libro básico de Arduino: electrónica y programación Conocer el funcionamiento de las cosas es algo que el hombre se ha planteado desde el inicio de los tiempos; hoy en día nos enfrentamos a una realidad donde abundan la automatización, la domótica, la interacción de las personas con las máquinas, la electrónica, la mecánica y la programación. Casi cualquier proceso que nos podamos imaginar tiene un porcentaje de dependencia de estas máquinas, por ejemplo: Tu despertador sonó a las 6am para que vinieras a la escuela o fueras al trabajo, esa máquina, reloj, trabajó durante toda la noche para al final avisarte que era hora de despertar. El propósito de este libro es abordar el concepto de computación física que es la capacidad de interacción y comunicación de una máquina con los humanos, usando sensores y actuadores. Las decisiones de esto las va a tomar un microcontrolador que se encuentra ubicado en la placa Arduino. La tarjeta Arduino es el corazón del presente libro.

Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to use hardware and software. Arduino can sense the environment by receiving input from a variety of sensors and can affect its surroundings by controlling lights, motors, and other actuators. There are plenty of other microcontrollers available. That is what this Arduino guide is about. In addition to Arduino’s simplicity, it is also inexpensive, cross-platform and open source. Believe it or not, even relatively inexperienced users can build a version of the Arduino module on a breadboard in order to understand how it works and save a little bit of money. 2.

Alternative Arduino Interfaces - learn.sparkfun.com Favorited Favorite 2 ArduBlock is a programming environment designed to make “physical computing with Arduino as easy as drag-and-drop.” Instead of writing code, worrying about syntax, and (mis)placing semicolons, ArduBlock allows you to visually program with an snapped-together list of code blocks. ArduBlock builds on the simplicity of Arduino, and creates a perfect beginner gateway to physical computing. Installing ArduBlock ArduBlock is something of an “add-on” to Arduino, so it requires that you have the Arduino IDE installed. Installing ArduBlock can be a little tricky – there’s no installer, just a Java file that needs to be stored in a very specific location. Download and Install Arduino (if you haven’t already) – Ardublock is an extension of the default Arduino IDE, so you’ll need to have Arduino installed on your computer to run it. ArduBlock works hand-in-hand with the Arduino IDE – it relies on the IDE being open in the background, so don’t close the Arduino window!
LeJOS, the Java Operating System for Legos, Releases EV3 Beta - Make: Aswin Bouwmeester’s holonomic Mindstorms robot, programmed with LeJOS. Today, the team behind LeJOS — the Java operating system for Legos — released a beta edition of their software for Mindstorms EV3. LeJOS has been around since 2000, when Jose Solozano first built the open-source Java-based software for Mindstorms RCX; it’s one of several software replacement systems for Mindstorms, which try to take advantage of more powerful programming languages to enable users to take their projects in different and more advanced directions. “It doesn’t run the Lego virtual machine, the Lego software. The EV3 edition of LeJOS is the first to take advantage of Lego’s increasingly open-source programmable bricks; prior versions had to be reverse engineered to work with the bricks. But it’s also important, he says, that it plays well with other systems. Ultimately, LeJOS is about allowing programmers — at least those who know Java — to go beyond what Lego Mindstorms are typically capable of.
