Arduino folks, This week we will be diving into how to program the Arduino platform. My plan is to go through several example programs which demonstrate some of the things you can do. In particular we'll see how to flash an LED, how to read a button press, how to generate some tones with the little speaker and how to do PWM control of the RGB LED to do color mixing. Don't worry if some of that sounds like an foreign language -- I'll give you some theory in addition to walking through the programs.
I am in the process of getting the examples ready for this week's workshop.
In the meantime here's a few thing you can do to get ready:
* Install the Arduino software on your laptop. Currently the latest release
is 0012. There are installers for Linux, Mac and Windows at:
http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
* Read through the documentation on the Arduino site:
http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/HomePage
http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/HomePage
* Take a look at the code that I downloaded to everyone's Arduino last week.
I've attached it to this email. If you're feeling adventurous take a stab
at modifying and downloading it to your board. Your code may or may not
work, but you won't zap the board.
Finally, please bring your own USB cable to connect the iDuino to your
computer.
See y'all at 2:00 PM!
Cheers,
Jon
