Getting started with arduino uno
The document provides an overview of Arduino R3, highlighting its role as an open-source electronics prototyping platform favored by hobbyists and designers for its simplicity and extensive community support. It outlines key components required for projects, types of Arduino microcontrollers, and the basic programming structure using simplified C++. Overall, it emphasizes Arduino as an accessible entry point into robotics with a wealth of resources available for learning and development.
Getting started with arduino uno
- 1.
- 2. OVERVIEW • Background • Microcontrollerdefined/Why Arduino's? • Types of Arduino microcontrollers • What To Get (Hardware and Software) • Arduino IDE • Projects • So Many
- 3. Microcontrollers – OneDefinition • Programmers work in the virtual world. • Machinery works in the physical world. • How does one connect the virtual world to the physical world? • Enter the microcontroller. • A microcontroller is basically a small-scale computer with generalized (and programmable) inputs and outputs. • The inputs and outputs can be manipulated by and can manipulate the physical world.
- 4. Arduino – OfficialDefinition • Taken from the official web site (arduino.cc): • Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.
- 5. Why Arduino? • Forwhatever reason, Arduino microcontrollers have become the de facto standard. • Make Magazine features many projects using Arduino microcontrollers. • Strives for the balance between ease of use and usefulness. • Programming languages seen as major obstacle. • Arduino C is a greatly simplified version of C++. • Inexpensive (RS.1000 approx.).
- 6. Arduino Types • Leonardo •Due • Micro • LilyPad • Esplora • Uno
- 7. What to Get– My Recommendation • Required: • Arduino (such as Uno) • USB A-B (printer) cable • Breadboard • Hookup wire • LED's • Resistors • Sensors • Switches • Good Idea: • Capacitors • Transistors • DC motor/servo • Relay Advanced: Soldering iron & solder Heat shrink tubing 9V battery adapter Bench power supply
- 8. Arduino Compiler • Downloadcurrent compiler from: arduino.cc/en/Main/software • Arrogantly refers to itself as an IDE (Ha!). • Run the software installer. • Written in Java, it is fairly slow. Visit playground.arduino.cc/Main/ DevelopmentTools for alternatives to the base arduino IDE
- 9. Arduino Program Development •Based on C++ without 80% of the instructions. • A handful of new commands. • Programs are called 'sketches'. • Sketches need two functions: • void setup( ) • void loop( ) • setup( ) runs first and once. • loop( ) runs over and over, until power is lost or a new sketch is loaded.
- 10. Conclusion • The Arduinomicrocontroller is a low cost way to enter into the hobby of robotics. • The Arduino has two plusses over any other: • The user community. • Extensive online library of code and projects. • Viewed as the "base" system, upon which all other microcontrollers are built. Compatibility. • So get a kit, and start ushering in the inevitable takeover of our robotic OVERLORD”
