Programming and an intro to Arduino IDE

Today we will deal with Programming and an intro to Arduino IDE, i had a arduino with me , thats all i did since its my remote week that helped me all the way at the time when i am boared , my arduino helped me to catch up with them

Programming

Embedded Programming

• Basics about programming
• Programming. 3 paths depending on proficiency:
• Add Author, date, description and license
• Always comment your code
• Init and loop parts
• Digital output
• Analog output (PWM)
• Digital input
• Analog input (ADC) 8 bit/10bit
• Pull up down resistors (10k)
• Multitasking? Polling
• Debounce buttons
• Beginners: Arduino IDE
• Intermediates: C
• Advanced: Assembly
• Why C?    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERY7d7W­6nA&feature=youtu.be
• Why Assembly?    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer
• Assignment
• Make LED blink
• Turn ON/OFF LED
• Serial communication (send something to computer, read something from computer)

Interface programming

The goal is to create an interface program for the computer or smartphone that displays information and/or controls one of the boards you made.
• You need a communication channel between your board and the interface program
• Computer interface
• Smartphone interface (Bluetooth connection)
• Assignment
• Serial connection
• Bluetooth
• Internet connection
• Processing
• Python https://www.codecademy.com/
• Webapp https://www.codecademy.com/
• Webapp MIT App Inventor 2 http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/
• Android App: MIT AI2 Companion Google Play Store
• Requirements
• Micro USB to USB cable (phone cable)
• USB hub
• USB to TTL converter (Inventory)
• Install MIT App Inventor in computer and phone
• Create an interface with a button and Indicator
• Control the indicator with the board button
• Control the board LED with the interface button
