The Arduino is an affordable, versatile microcontroller platform that simplifies electronics for DIY enthusiasts. It supports a wide array of input and output add-ons, sensors, displays, and motors, enabling the creation of interactive devices. Through 65 hands-on projects, this workshop guides you in mastering design principles and techniques. Updated for the latest Arduino IDE, it includes current hardware coverage, general electronics concepts, schematic diagrams, and detailed component images. You'll work with touchscreens, LED displays, robotics, wireless sensors, and remote device control via cell phones. Each project reinforces your learning, gradually increasing in complexity and sophistication. You'll also gain valuable coding skills, including creating custom Arduino libraries for code reuse across projects. Example projects include an electronic six-sided die, a GPS logger for travel data, a keypad-controlled lock with a secret code, a binary quiz game, and a motorized remote control car with collision detection. Regardless of your skill level, you'll enjoy the process of harnessing Arduino's power for your DIY creations.

Guided by an expert with over 30 years of experience, you'll embark on a journey to build 70 impressive Arduino projects, advancing your skills as an Arduinian. This guide is designed for those who have mastered the basics and are ready to tackle more complex and practical projects using this versatile microcontroller platform. You'll learn to remotely control your Arduino via Bluetooth and messaging, enhance clock accuracy with internet time servers, and automate power management. Projects include safely controlling AC mains power, conserving battery life with low-power modes, and utilizing Charlieplexing for LED matrix displays. You'll implement a watchdog timer, communicate over longer distances with RS232 and RS485 buses, and much more. Among the fun and useful devices you'll create are a camera-enabled circuit for video streaming, an MP3 player for audio playback, a CAN bus circuit to gather vehicle data, a web server for data display using an ESP32 board, and a PS/2 keyboard for improved user interfaces. With guidance from an Arduino master, you'll explore a variety of sensors, motors, displays, and techniques to bring your innovative ideas to life, using Arduino Uno and compatible microcontrollers, along with some inexpensive additional components.

Explore a diverse array of over 55 hands-on projects using the AVR family of microcontrollers, known for their versatility. This guide offers practical applications that cater to various skill levels, encouraging creativity and innovation in electronics. Each project is designed to enhance understanding of microcontroller functionality while providing a comprehensive learning experience in programming and circuit design. Perfect for hobbyists and aspiring engineers alike, it combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills.

Arduino is a cheap, flexible, open-source microcontroller designed to make it easy for hobbyists to use electronics in their projects. Arduino can be used to develop interactive objects that can take input from buttons and sensors and do things in response like flash LEDs or move. Because hands-on is the name of the game when it comes to playing with Arduino, Arduino Workshop contains 60 projects, carefully integrated and staged in difficulty throughout the book as readers acquire more knowledge and experience. In addition to learning basic electronics, readers learn to create more sophisticated projects like a GPS journey recorder, a graphical digital thermometer, and a precise clock set via satellite. Each chapter builds on previous chapters and step-by-step instructions walk readers through building (and understanding) the various projects. As the book progresses, readers go from creating a blinking light to building an RFID-tag time clock, a motorized tank controlled with a TV remote, and much more
