2. ARDUINO BOARDS, SHIELDS AND KITS
•Board are one piece all soldered together at
the factory.
•Shields are boards that stack on top of a board
•Kits typically have a board and other
components all in one box
3. ARDUINO BOARDS
• Arduino started in 2006 as an open source project designed for
students by a couple of Italians, code is written in C or C++.
• Arduino Uno is 8bit 32k 16MHz ram and the predecessor to the Due
• The Due is 32bit 96k 84MHz and is wildly popular
• Arduino Mega is older and has less on it
• They all have the similar form factor
13. WIRING DIAGRAMS VS SCHEMATICS
• Wiring Diagrams or physical and Schematics are logical.
• Wiring Diagrams show physical connections and are close to real
world representations
• Schematics are use to do calculations with and to easily see how
things are logically connected together
14. LILLY PAD
• Useful for interactive textiles.
• Can be sewn into martials
15. SPARKFUN.COM
• Break out boards – allow hand access to densely place pins on an IC.
• e-textiles, Cables, components, wireless, cellular, GPS, LCD
displays, sensors, books, development tools, tools.
•
17. CABLES, CELLULAR, GPS AND WIRELESS
• Cables - Audio, Ethernet, hook ups (alligator clips and other kinds of
clips) , parallel, serial, usb, video
• Cellular, GPS, - Antennas, Breakout boards and modules.
• Wireless antennas, Bluetooth, modems, wifi, fm tuners ,wather
band, Xbee (long distance remote)
• Common 433MHz transmitters and recievers
18. ROBOTICS
• Motor
• Stepper motors will turn a specific number of steps
• Motors will spin and spin
• Servos – have a limited rang of movement and will turn based on
voltages applied to either side.
19. COMPONENTS
• Wide variety of LEDs
• horns and speakers,
• Buttons, switches, knobs, dials
• Electro luminescence
• Capacitors, diodes, resistors, transistor
• Gauges and every kind of LCD display you can think of.
21. TOOLS, DEV TOOLS AND BOOKS
• Tools – meters, hemostats, knives, cutters, pliers, organizers (boxes
and bags), soldering
• Dev Tools – A wide variety of stuff most notably a Roomba
communications cable for $11.95
• 30 books
23. RASPBERRY PI
• 700 Mhz arm xpu with cpu and 256mb 2 usb
ports, Ethernet, audio, RCA and HDMI (1080p)
• Add WIFI through USB ($7 generic, 11 realtek, 13 airLink, 25
netgear)
• Think of a computer USB accessories
• UDOO – raspberry pi + Arduino project on kicksarter (~$125)
• DIY - raspberry pi + Arduino over usb & code
