Arduino For Dummies

Descripción

Review this book is a gentle intro to the Arduino (Linux Voice, April 2014) From the Back Cover Learn to: Build exciting interactive projects using ArduinoIntegrate inputs, outputs, and existing hardware into yourprojectsConstruct robust prototypes to get your project out into thereal worldCommunicate between hardware and software using Arduino andProcessingThe quick, easy way to leap into the fascinating world ofphysical computingArduino is no ordinary circuit board. Whether you're an artist, a designer, a programmer, or a hobbyist, Arduino lets you learnabout and play with electronics. You'll discover how to build avariety of circuits that can sense or control real-world objects, prototype your own product, and even create interactive artwork.This handy guide is exactly what you need to build your own Arduinoproject -- what you make is up to you!Learn by doing - start building circuits and programmingyour Arduino with a few easy examples -- right away!Easy does it - work through Arduino sketches line byline, and learn how they work and how to write your ownSolder on! - don't know a soldering iron from a curlingiron? No problem! You'll learn the basics and be prototyping in notimeKitted out - discover new and interesting hardware toturn your Arduino into anything from a mobile phone to a GeigercounterBecome an Arduino savant - find out about functions, arrays, libraries, shields, and other tools that let you take yourArduino project to the next levelGet social - teach your Arduino to communicate withsoftware running on a computer to link the physical world with thevirtual worldOpen the book and find: Help choosing an Arduino starter kitHow to set up your Arduino and install the Arduino DevelopmentEnvironmentProjects you can build that produce light, sound, andmotionInstructions on prototyping using breadboards and a solderingironHow to use different inputs and outputs in your projectsTips for hacking existing hardwareWays to extend Arduino's capabilities with libraries andshields See all Product description
