Book Description

Get the best out of Arduino by interfacing it with Android to create engaging interactive projects

About This Book

• Learn how to interface with and control Arduino using Android devices
• Discover how you can utilize the combined power of Android and Arduino for your own projects
• Practical, step-by-step examples to help you unleash the power of Arduino with Android

Who This Book Is For

This book is for those who want to learn how to build exciting Arduino projects by interfacing it with Android. You will need to have some basic experience in electronics and programming. However, you don’t need to have any previous experience with the Arduino or Android platforms.

In Detail

Arduino is an open source microcontroller built on a single-circuit board that is capable of receiving sensory input from the environment and controlling interactive physical objects.

The first few projects of this book will focus on displaying tweets within your app by connecting to Twitter, controlling basic functions of the Arduino board, and connecting an Arduino-powered weather station to an Android phone via Bluetooth. Next, you will learn how to use the Arduino Yun board to connect a standard USB camera to a local Wi-Fi network. At the end of the book, you will build a simple mobile robot, connect it to an Arduino board and a Bluetooth module, then control the robot from an Android phone using Bluetooth.

Each project is explained in a step-by-step fashion, always starting with the choice of components and the assembly of the hardware.

书名：Arduino Android蓝图

通过将Arduino与Android接口来创建引人入胜的互动项目，充分利用Arduino

关于本书

• 了解如何使用Android设备与Arduino交互并对其进行控制
• 了解如何将Android和Arduino的组合功能用于您自己的项目
• 实用、循序渐进的示例，帮助您释放Arduino在Android中的力量

这本书是为谁写的

这本书是为那些想要学习如何通过与Android接口来构建令人兴奋的Arduino项目的人写的。你需要在电子和编程方面有一些基本的经验。然而，你不需要有任何以前使用Arduino或Android平台的经验。

详细地说

Arduino是一款开源微控制器，构建在单电路板上，能够从环境中接收感官输入并控制交互式物理对象。

这本书的前几个项目将专注于在你的应用程序中显示推文，方法是连接到Twitter，控制Arduino面板的基本功能，以及通过蓝牙将Arduino供电的气象站连接到Android手机。接下来，您将学习如何使用Arduino Yun板将标准USB摄像头连接到本地Wi-Fi网络。在这本书的最后，你将建造一个简单的移动机器人，将它连接到Arduino板和蓝牙模块，然后使用蓝牙从Android手机控制机器人。

每个项目都以循序渐进的方式进行解释，总是从组件的选择和硬件的组装开始。
