1 like445 views
This document introduces tools for prototyping IoT devices using Arduino and other microcontrollers. It discusses hardware options like LightBlue Bean and Evothings for Bluetooth prototyping. An example IoT project called GrapeMonitor is presented, which monitors conditions for growing grapes using sensors and sends data wirelessly. The document also provides resources for learning more about electronics, prototyping, and developing connected hardware and mobile applications.

PaperRobot:TheObjectives ● Increase prototyping confidence with electronics ● Introduce tools for creating embedded devices ● Learn: soldering, wire handling, building robust prototypes, making devices to talk to other devices ● Enrich project functionality ● Encourage future independent exploration
- 11. Glossary Arduino: Open-source electronics platform enabling easy-to-use hardware and software, intended for anyone making interactive projects. Peripheral: A device that is connected (e.g. via Bluetooth) to another device to add functionality. Eg. Mice, keyboards, and speakers are peripherals to computers; and smart watches are peripherals to smartphones. GPIO: General Purpose Input/Output is a pin on a microprocessor that can function as either an input (e.g. connected to a sensor) or an output (e.g. connected to a display or LED), and may be programmed as such. IDE: An Integrated Development Environment is software that includes a source code editor, compiler, debugger, and in the case of hardware, a method to program an external processor. Microcontroller (MCU): Hardware including an integrated circuit with features that enable it to interact with the external world, i.e., sense, collect data, and control “things.” Shield: Board that can be plugged on top of the Arduino PCB extending its capabilities. The different shields follow the same philosophy as the original toolkit: they are easy to mount, and cheap to produce.

- 14. WhyArduino? Arduino: ● Hardware ecosystem ● Component level building ● IDE for programming ● Open source ● Existing support (forums, shields) Sample Shields: ● Motor drivers ● Communication (XBee, BT, WiFi, IR, Ethernet) ● Accessories (GPS, Camera, SD reader, MP3 player) ● Displays (LCD, LED, audio) ● Sensors (pH, weather, voice recognition)
- 15. IoTExample:GrapeMonitor Problems: ● Lots of factors during the growth of grapes go into the final taste of a wine. ● It is difficult to track exactly what conditions contribute to a particular vintage. ● Too much moisture or too much heat can adversely affect the growth of grapes. Need: ● A way to compare the growing conditions of grapes. ● A way to inform us of adverse climate changes so we can take action to protect our grapes.
