Introduction

Nowadays, technological education such as VR, kids programming, and artificial intelligence, has become mainstream in educational industry. Thereby, people attach importance to STEAM education. Arduino is pretty notable in Maker education.

So what is Arduino? Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. Based on this, Keyestudio team has designed a mini tank robot. The tank robot has a processor which is programmable using the Arduino IDE, to mapped its pins to sensors and actuators by a shield that plug in the processor, it reads sensors and controls the actuators and decides how to operate.

Install Arduino IDE and Driver

Download software

When we get control board, we need to download Arduino IDE and driver firstly. You could download Arduino IDE from the official website: https://www.arduino.cc/, click the SOFTWARE on the browse bar, click “DOWNLOADS” to enter download page, as shown below:

There are various versions for Arduino, just download a suitable version for your system, we will take WINDOWS system as an example to show you how to download and install.

There are two versions for WINDOWS system, one is installed version, another one is download version, you just need to download file to computer directly and unzip it. These two versions can be used normally. Choose one and download on your computer.

You just need to click JUST DOWNLOAD, then click the downloaded file to install it. And when the ZIP file is downloaded, you can directly unzip and start it.

Keyestudio V4.0 Development Board

We need to know keyestudio V4.0 development board, as a core of this smart car.

keyestudio V4.0 development board is an Arduino uno-compatible board, which is based on ATmega328P MCU, and with a cp2102 Chip as a UART-to-USB converter.

It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz quartz crystal, a USB connection, a power jack, 2 ICSP headers and a reset button.

It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it via an external DC power jack (DC 7-12V) or via female headers Vin/ GND(DC 7-12V) to get started.

Installing driver

Let’s install the driver of keyestudio PLUS control board. The USB-TTL chip on PLUS board adopts CP2102 serial chip. The driver program of this chip is included in Arduino 1.8 version and above, which is convenient. Plug on USB port of board, the computer can recognize the hardware and automatically install the driver of CP2102.

If install unsuccessfully, or you intend to install manually, open the device manager of computer. Right click Computer----- Properties----- Device Manager.

There is a yellow exclamation mark on the page, which implies installing the driver of CP2102 unsuccessfully. Then we double click the hardware and update the driver.

Click “OK” to enter the following page, click “browse my computer for updated driver software”, find out the installed or downloaded ARDUINO software. As shown below:

There is a DRIVERS folder in Arduino software installed package（）, open driver folder and you can see the driver of CP210X series chips.

We click “Browse”, then find out the driver folder, or you could enter “driver” to search in rectangular box, then click “next”, the driver will be installed successfully. (I place Arduino software folder on the desktop, you could follow my way)

Open device manager, we will find the yellow exclamation mark disappear. The driver of CP2102 is installed successfully.

Install other visions of driver

If your development board is Arduino UNO board, install the driver as follows:
Step 1: Plug in the development board, click Computer----- Properties----- Device Manager, you could see the unknown device is shown.

Step 2: Update the driver

Step 3: click“browse my computer for updated driver software”

Step 4: find out the folder where the ARDUINO software is installed, click drivers folder and tap“Next”

Step 5: the driver is installed successfully.

The device manager shows the serial port of Arduino.

Arduino IDE Setting

Click icon，open Arduino IDE.

To avoid the errors when uploading the program to the board, you need to select the correct Arduino board that matches the board connected to your computer. Then come back to the Arduino software, you should click Tools→Board, select the board. (as shown below)

Then select the correct COM port (you can see the corresponding COM port after the driver is successfully installed)

Before uploading the program to the board, let’s demonstrate the function of each symbol in the Arduino IDE toolbar.

A- Used to verify whether there is any compiling mistakes or not.
B- Used to upload the sketch to your Arduino board.
C- Used to create shortcut window of a new sketch.
D- Used to directly open an example sketch.
E- Used to save the sketch.
F- Used to send the serial data received from board to the serial monitor.

Start your first program

Open the file to select Example, choose BLINK from BASIC, as shown below:

Set board and COM port, the corresponding board and COM port are shown on the lower right of IDE.

Click to start compiling the program, check errors.

Click to upload the program, upload successfully.

Upload the program successfully, the onboard LED lights on for 1s, lights off for 1s. Congratulation, you finish the first program.

How to Add a Library?

What are Libraries ?
Libraries are a collection of code that makes it easy for you to connect to a sensor,display, module, etc.
For example, the built-in LiquidCrystal library helps talk to LCD displays. There are hundreds of additional libraries available on the Internet for download.
The built-in libraries and some of these additional libraries are listed in the reference.

Here we will introduce the most simple way for you to add libraries .
Step 1：After downloading well the Arduino IDE, you can right-click the icon of Arduino IDE.
Find the option "Open file location" shown as below:

Step 2: Enter it to find out libraries folder which is the library file of Arduino.

Step 3：Next to find out the“libraries”of tank robot(seen in the link: https://fs.keyestudio.com/KS0428), you just need to replicate and paste into the libraries folder of Arduino IDE.

Then the libraries of tank robot are installed successfully, as shown below:

Projects

Project 1: LED Blink

(1)Description

For the starter and enthusiast, this is a fundamental program---LED Blink.
LED, the abbreviation of light emitting diodes, consist of Ga, As, P, N chemical compound and so on. The LED can flash diverse color by altering the delay time in the test code. When in control, power on GND and VCC, the LED will be on if S end is high level; nevertheless, it will go off.

(2)Specification

Control interface: digital port
Working voltage: DC 3.3-5V
Pin spacing: 2.54mm
LED display color: red

(3)Equipment

(4) V5 Sensor Shield
There will be troublesome when we combine Arduino development boards with numerous sensors. However, the V5 sensor shield, compatible with Arduino development board, address this problem perfectly. Just stack V5 board on it. This sensor shield can be inserted into 3pin sensor modules and breaks out some some communication pins, like serial, IIC, and SPI communication as well.

Pins Description

void setup()
 { 
    pinMode(2, OUTPUT);// initialize digital pin 2 as an output.
}
void loop() // the loop function runs over and over again forever

{
   digitalWrite(2, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
   delay(1000); // wait for a second
   digitalWrite(2, LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
   delay(1000); // wait for a second
}
//****************************************************************

(6) Test Result

(There will be contradict about serial communication between code and Bluetooth when uploading code, therefore, don’t link with Bluetooth module before uploading code.) Upload the program on the development board, LED flicker with the interval of 1s.

(7)Code Explanation

pinMode(2，OUTPUT) - Set pin2 to OUTPUT

digitalWrite(2，HIGH) - When set pin2 to HIGH level(output 5V) or to LOW level(output 0V)

(8)Extension Practice We succeed to blink LED. Next, let’s observe what LED will change if we modify pins and delay time.

Connection Diagram

We’ve altered pins and connected LED to D10.

Test Code:


/*

*/
void setup() {  // initialize digital pin 10 as an output.
   pinMode(10, OUTPUT);
}
// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
   digitalWrite(10, HIGH); // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
   delay(100); // wait for 0.1 second
   digitalWrite(10, LOW); // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
   delay(100); // wait for 0.1 second
}
//****************************************************************

The LED flickers faster than before through the test result, therefore, pins and delay time affect flash frequency.

Project 2: Adjust LED Brightness

(1)Description In previous lesson, we control LED on and off and make it blink. In this project, we will control LED brightness through PWM to simulate breathing effect. Similarly, you can change the step length and delay time in the code so as to demonstrate different breathing effect. PWM is a means of controlling the analog output via digital means. Digital control is used to generate square waves with different duty cycles (a signal that constantly switches between high and low levels) to control the analog output.In general, the input voltage of port are 0V and 5V. What if the 3V is required? Or what if switch among 1V, 3V and 3.5V? We can’t change resistor constantly. For this situation, we need to control by PWM.

For the Arduino digital port voltage output, there are only LOW and HIGH, which correspond to the voltage output of 0V and 5V. You can define LOW as 0 and HIGH as 1, and let the Arduino output five hundred 0 or 1 signals within 1 second. If output five hundred 1, that is 5V; if all of which is 1, that is 0V. If output 010101010101 in this way then the output port is 2.5V, which is like showing movie. The movie we watch are not completely continuous. It actually outputs 25 pictures per second. In this case, the human can’t tell it, neither does PWM. If want different voltage, need to control the ratio of 0 and 1. The more 0,1 signals output per unit time, the more accurately control.

int ledPin = 10; // Define the LED pin at D10
int value;
void setup () 
{

}
void loop () 
{
for (value = 0; value <255; value = value + 1)
{
analogWrite (ledPin, value); // LED lights gradually light up
delay (5); // delay 5MS
}
for (value = 255; value> 0; value = value-1)
{
analogWrite (ledPin, value); // LED gradually goes out
delay (5); // delay 5MS
}}//**********************************************************

(6)Test Result

Upload test code successfully, LED gradually becomes brighter then darker, like human breath, rather than light on and off immediately.

(7)Code Explanation

When we need to repeat some statements, we could use FOR statement.
FOR statement format is shown below:

FOR cyclic sequence: Round 1：1 → 2 → 3 → 4 Round 2：2 → 3 → 4 … Until number 2 is not established, “for”loop is over, After knowing this order, go back to code: for (int value = 0; value < 255; value=value+1){

...

} for (int value = 255; value >0; value=value-1){

...

}

The two“for”statements make value increase from 0 to 255, then reduce from 255 to 0, then increase to 255,....infinitely loop There is a new function in the following ----- analogWrite() We know that digital port only has two state of 0 and 1. So how to send an analog value to a digital value? Here,this function is needed. Let’s observe the Arduino board and find 6 pins marked“~”which can output PWM signals.

Function format as follows: analogWrite(pin,value) analogWrite() is used to write an analog value from 0~255 for PWM port, so the value is in the range of 0~255. Attention that you only write the digital pins with PWM function, such as pin 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11.
PWM is a technology to obtain analog quantity through digital method. Digital control forms a square wave, and the square wave signal only has two states of turning on and off (that is, high or low levels). By controlling the ratio of the duration of turning on and off, a voltage varying from 0 to 5V can be simulated. The time turning on(academically referred to as high level) is called pulse width, so PWM is also called pulse width modulation.
Through the following five square waves, let’s acknowledge more about PWM.

In the above figure, the green line represents a period, and value of analogWrite() corresponds to a percentage which is called Duty Cycle as well. Duty cycle implies that high-level duration is divided by low-level duration in a cycle. From top to bottom, the duty cycle of first square wave is 0% and its corresponding value is 0. The LED brightness is lowest, that is, turn off. The more time high level lasts, the brighter the LED.
Therefore, the last duty cycle is 100%, which correspond to 255, LED is brightest. 25% means darker.
PWM mostly is used for adjusting the LED brightness or rotation speed of motor.
It plays vital role in controlling smart robot car. I believe that you can’t wait to enter next project.

(8) Extension Practice：

Let’s modify the value of delay and remain the pin unchanged, then observe how LED changes.

/*

int ledPin = 10; // Define the LED pin at D10

}

{
for (value = 0; value <255; value = value + 1)
{
analogWrite (ledPin, value); // LED lights gradually light up
delay (30); // delay 30MS
}
for (value = 255; value> 0; value = value-1)
{
analogWrite (ledPin, value); // LED gradually goes out
delay (30); // delay 30MS
}}//**********************************************************

Upload code on the development board and LED gradually get brighter then darker.

Project 3: Photoresistor Sensor

(1)Description

The photoresistor is a special resistor made of semiconductor materials such as CdS or Selenide septum. The surface is also coated with moisture-proof resin, which has a photoconductive effect. It is sensitive to ambient light. Its resistance varies from different light intensities.

We use the characteristics of the photo-resistor to design the circuit and generate the photo-resistor module.
Connecting the signal pin of photocell module to Analog port, when the stronger the light intensity, the greater the voltage of analog port, the greater the analog value is.
On the contrary, the weaker the light intensity, the smaller the voltage of analog port, the smaller the analog value is. Based on that, we can use the photocell module to read the analog value, so get the ambient light intensity.

(2)Specification

Resistance：5K ohm-0.5Mohm
Interface Type: analog
Working Voltage: 3.3V-5V
Easy installation: with screw fixing holes
Pin spacing: 2.54mm

}
//******************************************************

(5)Test Result

Upload code on development board, open serial monitor, check if its value diminishes when covering photoresistor. However, the value increases when uncovered.

(6)Code Explanation analogRead(sensorPin)：read the analog value of photoresistor via analog ports. Serial.begin(9600): Initialize the serial port, baud rate of serial communication is 9600 Serial.println : Serial port prints and word wrap.

(7)Extension Practice We’ve known how to read the value of photoresistor. Let’s combine photoresistor with LED and view the status of LED.

PWM restrains the brightness, so LED is linked with PWM pins, connect LED to pin 10, keep pin of photoresistor unchanged, then design the code:

/*keyestudio Mini Tank Robot V2

int analogInPin = A1;  // Analog input pin that the photocell is attached to
int analogOutPin = 10; // Analog output pin that the LED is attached to

int outputValue = 0;        // value output to the PWM (analog out)
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
 }
void loop() {
  // read the analog in value:
  sensorValue = analogRead(analogInPin);
  // map it to the range of the analog out:
  outputValue = map(sensorValue, 0, 1023, 0, 255);
  // change the analog out value:
  analogWrite(analogOutPin, outputValue);
  // wait 2 milliseconds before the next loop for the analog-to-digital
  // converter to settle after the last reading:
 Serial.println(sensorValue);  //serial port prints the value of photoresistor
delay(2);
}

Upload code, press it by hand and see the the LED brightness.

Project 4: Servo Control

(1)Description

Servo motor is a position control rotary actuator. It mainly consists of housing, circuit board, core-less motor, gear and position sensor. Its working principle is that the servo receives the signal sent by MCU or receiver and produces a reference signal with a period of 20ms and width of 1.5ms, then compares the acquired DC bias voltage to the voltage of the potentiometer and obtain the voltage difference output.

When the motor speed is constant, the potentiometer is driven to rotate through the cascade reduction gear, which leads that the voltage difference is 0, and the motor stops rotating. Generally, the angle range of servo rotation is 0° --180 °

The rotation angle of servo motor is controlled by regulating the duty cycle of PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) signal. The standard cycle of PWM signal is 20ms (50Hz). Theoretically, the width is distributed between 1ms-2ms, but in fact, it's between 0.5ms-2.5ms. The width corresponds the rotation angle from 0° to 180°. But note that for different brand motor, the same signal may have different rotation angle.

The corresponding servo angles are shown below:

(2)Specification

Working voltage: DC 4.8V ~ 6V
Operating angle range: about 180 ° (at 500 → 2500 μsec)
Pulse width range: 500 → 2500 μsec
No-load speed: 0.12 ± 0.01 sec / 60 (DC 4.8V) 0.1 ± 0.01 sec / 60 (DC 6V)
No-load current: 200 ± 20mA (DC 4.8V) 220 ± 20mA (DC 6V)
Stopping torque: 1.3 ± 0.01kg · cm (DC 4.8V) 1.5 ± 0.1kg · cm (DC 6V)
Stop current: ≦ 850mA (DC 4.8V) ≦ 1000mA (DC 6V)
Standby current: 3 ± 1mA (DC 4.8V) 4 ± 1mA (DC 6V)

(3)Equipment

(4)Connection Diagram：

Wiring note: the brown line of servo is linked with Gnd(G), the red line is connected to 5v(V) and orange line is attached to digital 9.

The servo have to be connected to external power, due to its high demand for driving servo current. Generally, the current of development board is not enough. If without connected power, the development board could be burnt.

3.write（angle）——The statement to set rotation angle of servo, the angle range is from 0° to 180° 3. read（）——The statement to read angle of servo, read the command value of “write()” 4. Note: The above written format is “servo variable name, specific statement（）”, for instance: myservo.attach(9)

Project 5: Ultrasonic Sensor

(1)Description

The HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor uses sonar to determine distance to an object like bats do. It offers excellent non-contact range detection with high accuracy and stable readings in an easy-to-use package. It comes complete with ultrasonic transmitter and receiver modules.
The HC-SR04 or the ultrasonic sensor is being used in a wide range of electronics projects for creating obstacle detection and distance measuring application as well as various other applications. Here we have brought the simple method to measure the distance with arduino and ultrasonic sensor and how to use ultrasonic sensor with arduino.

(2)Specification

Power Supply :+5V DC
Quiescent Current : <2mA
Working Current: 15mA
Effectual Angle: <15°
Ranging Distance : 2cm – 400 cm
Resolution : 0.3 cm
Measuring Angle: 30 degree
Trigger Input Pulse width: 10uS

(3)Equipment

(4)The principle of ultrasonic sensor

As the above picture shown, it is like two eyes. One is transmitting end, the other is receiving end.

The ultrasonic module will emit the ultrasonic waves after trigger signal. When the ultrasonic waves encounter the object and are reflected back, the module outputs an echo signal, so it can determine the distance of object from the time difference between trigger signal and echo signal. The t is the time that emitting signal meets obstacle and returns. and the propagation speed of sound in the air is about 343m/s, therefore, distance = speed * time, because the ultrasonic wave emits and comes back, which is 2 times of distance, so it needs to be divided by 2, the distance measured by ultrasonic wave = (speed * time)/2

1.Use method and timing chart of ultrasonic module: Setting the delay time of Trig pin of SR04 to 10μs at least, which can trigger it to detect distance. 2. After triggering, the module will automatically send eight 40KHz ultrasonic pulses and detect whether there is a signal return. This step will be completed automatically by the module. 3. If the signal returns, the Echo pin will output a high level, and the duration of the high level is the time from the transmission of the ultrasonic wave to the return.

(7)Test Result Upload test code on the development board, open serial monitor and set baud rate to 9600. The detected distance will be displayed, unit is cm and inch. Hinder the ultrasonic sensor by hand, the displayed distance value is smaller.

(8)Code Explanation int trigPin = 5; this pin is defined pin to transmit ultrasonic waves, generally output. int echoPin = 4; this is defined as the pin of reception, generally input cm = (duration/2) / 29.1; inches = (duration/2) / 74; by 0.0135 We can calculate the distance by using the following formula: distance = (traveltime/2) x speed of sound The speed of sound is: 343m/s = 0.0343 cm/uS = 1/29.1 cm/uS Or in inches: 13503.9in/s = 0.0135in/uS = 1/74in/uS We need to divide the traveltime by 2 because we have to take into account that the wave was sent, hit the object, and then returned back to the sensor. (9)Extension Practice: We have just measured the distance displayed by the ultrasonic. How about controlling the LED with the measured distance? Let's try it, connect an LED light module to the D10 pin.

Project 6: IR Reception

(1)Description
There is no doubt that infrared remote control is ubiquitous in daily life. It is used to control various household appliances, such as TVs, stereos, video recorders and satellite signal receivers. Infrared remote control is composed of infrared transmitting and infrared receiving systems, that is, an infrared remote control and infrared receiving module and a single-chip microcomputer capable of decoding.
The 38K infrared carrier signal emitted by remote controller is encoded by the encoding chip in the remote controller. It is composed of a section of pilot code, user code, user inverse code, data code, and data inverse code. The time interval of the pulse is used to distinguish whether it is a 0 or 1 signal and the encoding is made up of these 0, 1 signals.
The user code of the same remote control is unchanged. The data code can distinguish the key.
When the remote control button is pressed, the remote control sends out an infrared carrier signal. When the IR receiver receives the signal, the program will decode the carrier signal and determines which key is pressed. The MCU decodes the received 01 signal, thereby judging what key is pressed by the remote control.
Infrared receiver we use is an infrared receiver module. Mainly composed of an infrared receiver head, it is a device that integrates reception, amplification, and demodulation. Its internal IC has completed demodulation, and can achieve from infrared reception to output and be compatible with TTL signals. Additionally, it is suitable for infrared remote control and infrared data transmission. The infrared receiving module made by the receiver has only three pins, signal line, VCC and GND. It is very convenient to communicate with arduino and other microcontrollers.

(6)Test Result

Upload test code, open serial monitor and set baud rate to 9600, point remote control to IR receiver and the corresponding value will be shown, if pressing so long, the error codes will appear.

Below we have listed out each button value of keyestudio remote control. So you can keep it for reference.

(7)Code Explanation
irrecv.enableIRIn(): after enabling IR decoding, the IR signals will be received, then function“decode()”will check continuously if decode successfully.

irrecv.decode(&results): after decoding successfully, this function will come back to “true”, and keep result in “results”. After decoding a IR signals, run the resume()function and receive the next signal (8)Extension Practice We decoded the key value of IR remote control. How about restrain LED by the measured value? We could operate an experiment to affirm. Attach a LED to D10. When keep the pin of IR receiver unchanged, LED will be on when pressing the key of remote control; press again, LED will be off.

//*******************************************

(There will be contradiction between serial communication of code and communication of Bluetooth when uploading code, therefore, don’t link with Bluetooth module before uploading code.)
After uploading code on development board, then insert Bluetooth module, wait for the command from cellphone.

(6)Download APP

Allow APP to access “location” in settings of your cellphone when connecting to Bluetooth module.

The code is reading the received signal, and we also need a stuff to send signal. In this project, we send signal to control robot car via cellphone.
Then we need to download the APP.

1.For iOS system

Enter APP STORE to search BLE Scanner 4.0, then download it.

2.For Android system

Enter Google Play to find out BLE Scanner, then download.
And allow APP to access“location”, you could enable “location”in settings of your cellphone.

3.After installation, open App and enable “Location and Bluetooth” permission.
4.We take iOS version as example. The operation method of Android version is almost same as it.
5.Scan Bluetooth module to get Bluetooth BLE 4.0. Its name is HMSoft.

Then click“connect”to link with Bluetooth and use it.

6. After connecting to HMSoft, click it to get multiple options, such as device information, access permission, general and custom service. Choose “CUSTOM SERVICE”

7.Then pop up the following page

8. Click（Read,Notify,WriteWithoutResponse)to enter the following page

9.Click Write Value, appear the interface to enter HEX or Text.

10.Open the serial monitor on Arduino，enter a 0 or other character at Text interface.

Then click“Write”, open serial monitor to view if there is a “0” signal

(7)Code Explanation

Serial.available() : The current rest characters when return to buffer area. Generally, this function is used to judge if there is data in buffer. When Serial.available()>0, it means that serial receives the data and can be read
Serial.read()：Read a data of a Byte in buffer of serial port, for instance, device sends data to Arduino via serial port, then we could read data by “Serial.read()” (8)Extension Practice
We could send a command via cellphone to turn on and off a LED.
D10 is connected to a LED, as shown below:

Project 9: LED Expression Panel

(1)Description

If we add an expression panel to the robot, it will be amazing. Keyestudio's 8*16 dot matrix can meet your requirements. You can create facial expressions, patterns or other interesting displays yourself. 8*16 LED light board comes with 128 LEDs. The data of the microprocessor (arduino) communicates with the AiP1640 through the two-wire bus interface, so as to control the 128 LEDs on the module, which produce the patterns you need on dot matrix. To facilitate wiring, we also provide a HX-2.54 4Pin wiring.

(2)Specification

Working voltage: DC 3.3-5V
Power loss: 400mW
Oscillation frequency: 450KHz
Drive current: 200mA
Working temperature: -40~80℃
Communication method: two-wire bus

(3)Equipment

(4)8*16 Dot Matrix Display

Circuit Graphic

The principle of 8*16 dot matrix:
How to control each led light of 8*16 dot matrix? We know that a byte has 8 bits, each bit is 0 or 1. When a bit is 0, turn off LED and when a bit is 0, turn on LED.
Thereby, one byte can control the LED in a row of dot matrix, so 16 bytes can control 16 columns of led lights, that is, 8*16 dot matrix.

Interface Description and Communication Protocol:
The data of the microprocessor (arduino) communicates with the AiP1640 through the two-wire bus interface.
The communication protocol diagram is shown below:

(SCLK) is SCL, (DIN) is SDA:

①The starting condition for data input: SCL is high level and SDA changes from high to low.
②For data command setting, there are methods as shown in the figure below.
In our sample program, select the way to add 1 to the address automatically, the binary value is 0100 0000 and the corresponding hexadecimal value is 0x40.

③For address command setting, the address can be selected as shown below. The first 00H is selected in our sample program, and the binary number 1100 0000 corresponds to the hexadecimal 0xc0

④The requirement for data input is that SCL is high level when inputting data, the signal on SDA must remain unchanged. Only when the clock signal on SCL is low level, the signal on SDA can be altered. The data input is low-order first, high-order is behind
⑤ The condition to end data transmission is that when SCL is low, SDA is low, and when SCL is high, the SDA level also becomes high.
⑥ Display control, set different pulse width, the pulse width can be selected as shown below
In the example, we choose pulse width 4/16, and the hexadecimal corresponds to 1000 1010 is 0x8A

4. Introduction for Modulus Tool

The online version of dot matrix modulus tool: http://dotmatrixtool.com/#

①Open links to enter the following page.

②The dot matrix is 8*16 in this project, so set the height to 8, width to 16, as shown below.

③ Generate hexadecimal data from the pattern As shown below, press the left mouse button to select, the right button to cancel, draw the pattern you want, click Generate, and the hexadecimal data we need will be produced.

(5)Connection Diagram

Wiring note: The GND, VCC, SDA, and SCL of the 8x16 LED panel are respectively connected to -(GND), + (VCC), A4 and A5 of the keyestudio sensor expansion board for two-wire serial communication. (Note: This pin is connected to arduino IIC, but this module is not IIC communication, it can be linked with any two pins.)

Project 10: Light Follow Robot

(1)Description

We’ve introduce how to use various sensors, modules.
In this lesson, we combine with hardware knowledge -- photoresistor module, motor driving, to build a light-following robot!
Just need to use 2 photoresistor modules to detect the light intensity at the both side of robot. Read the analog value to rotate the 2 motors, thus drive the tank robot run.

The specific logic of light following robot is shown as the table below:

We make a flow chart based on the above logic table, as shown below:

(2)Connection Diagram

Hook-up Attention: The 4Pin terminal block is marked with silkscreen 1234. The red line of right rear motor is connected to terminal 1, black line is linked with end 2. The red line of left front motor is attached to terminal 3, black line is linked with port 4.

Project 13: IR Remote Robot Tank

(1)Description

IR remote control is one of most ubiquitous control, applied in TV, electric fan and some household appliances. In this project, we will make an IR remote smart car. And we’ve known every key value on IR remote control. Thus, we could control smart car via and display the patterns on dot matrix via corresponding key value

The specific logic of infrared remote control robot is shown below:

(2)Flow Chart

(3)Connection Diagram

Attention：GND,VCC, SDA, SCL of 8x16 LED panel are respectively linked with -（GND), +（VCC), SDA ,SCL. And “-”、“+” and S of IR receiver module are attached to G（GND), V（VCC) and A0 on sensor shield. On the condition of insufficient digital ports, the analog ports can be treat as digital ports. A0 equals to digital 14, A1 is like digital 15.

-So what is Arduino? Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. Based on this, Keyestudio team has designed a mini tank robot. The tank robot has a processor which is programmable using the Arduino IDE, to mapped its pins to sensors and actuators by a shield that plug in the processor, it reads sensors and controls the actuators and decides how to operate.

+=== Project 2: Adjust LED Brightness ===
+(1)Description
+In previous lesson, we control LED on and off and make it blink.
+In this project, we will control LED brightness through PWM to simulate breathing effect. Similarly, you can change the step length and delay time in the code so as to demonstrate different breathing effect.
+PWM is a means of controlling the analog output via digital means. Digital control is used to generate square waves with different duty cycles (a signal that constantly switches between high and low levels) to control the analog output.In general, the input voltage of port are 0V and 5V. What if the 3V is required? Or what if switch among 1V, 3V and 3.5V? We can’t change resistor constantly. For this situation, we need to control by PWM.
+<br>[[File:0085=33.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+For the Arduino digital port voltage output, there are only LOW and HIGH, which correspond to the voltage output of 0V and 5V. You can define LOW as 0 and HIGH as 1, and let the Arduino output five hundred 0 or 1 signals within 1 second.
+If output five hundred 1, that is 5V; if all of which is 1, that is 0V. If output 010101010101 in this way then the output port is 2.5V, which is like showing movie. The movie we watch are not completely continuous. It actually outputs 25 pictures per second. In this case, the human can’t tell it, neither does PWM. If want different voltage, need to control the ratio of 0 and 1. The more 0,1 signals output per unit time, the more accurately control.

+Round 1：1 → 2 → 3 → 4
-<br>[[Image:048614png.png|500px|frameless]]<br>
+Round 2：2 → 3 → 4
+…
+Until number 2 is not established, “for”loop is over,
+After knowing this order, go back to code:
+for (int value = 0; value < 255; value=value+1){
+        ...
+}
+for (int value = 255; value >0; value=value-1){
+       ...
+}
-Upload the program successfully, the onboard LED lights on for 1s, lights off for 1s. Congratulation, you finish the first program.
+The two“for”statements make value increase from 0 to 255, then reduce from 255 to 0, then increase to 255,....infinitely loop
+There is a new function in the following ----- analogWrite()
+We know that digital port only has two state of 0 and 1. So how to send an analog value to a digital value? Here,this function is needed. Let’s observe the Arduino board and find 6 pins marked“~”which can output PWM signals.<br>
+Function format as follows:
+analogWrite(pin,value)
+analogWrite() is used to write an analog value from 0~255 for PWM port, so the value is in the range of 0~255. Attention that you only write the digital pins with PWM function, such as pin 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11.<br>
+PWM is a technology to obtain analog quantity through digital method. Digital control forms a square wave, and the square wave signal only has two states of turning on and off (that is, high or low levels). By controlling the ratio of the duration of turning on and off, a voltage varying from 0 to 5V can be simulated. The time turning on(academically referred to as high level) is called pulse width, so PWM is also called pulse width modulation.<br>
+Through the following five square waves, let’s acknowledge more about PWM. <br>
+<br>[[File:0085=37.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+In the above figure, the green line represents a period, and value of analogWrite() corresponds to a percentage which is called Duty Cycle as well. Duty cycle implies that high-level duration is divided by low-level duration in a cycle. From top to bottom, the duty cycle of first square wave is 0% and its corresponding value is 0. The LED brightness is lowest, that is, turn off. The more time high level lasts, the brighter the LED. <br> Therefore, the last duty cycle is 100%, which correspond to 255, LED is brightest. 25% means darker.<br>

+The photoresistor is a special resistor made of semiconductor materials such as CdS or Selenide septum. The surface is also coated with moisture-proof resin, which has a photoconductive effect. It is sensitive to ambient light. Its resistance varies from different light intensities.<br>
-Before uploading the program to the board, let’s demonstrate the function of each symbol in the Arduino IDE toolbar.<br>
+We use the characteristics of the photo-resistor to design the circuit and generate the photo-resistor module.<br>
+Connecting the signal pin of photocell module to Analog port, when the stronger the light intensity, the greater the voltage of analog port, the greater the analog value is. <br>
-A- Used to verify whether there is any compiling mistakes or not.<br>
+On the contrary, the weaker the light intensity, the smaller the voltage of analog port, the smaller the analog value is.
-B- Used to upload the sketch to your Arduino board.<br>
+Based on that, we can use the photocell module to read the analog value, so get the ambient light intensity.
-C- Used to create shortcut window of a new sketch.<br>
-D- Used to directly open an example sketch.<br>
-E- Used to save the sketch.<br>

+Servo motor is a position control rotary actuator. It mainly consists of housing, circuit board, core-less motor, gear and position sensor. Its working principle is that the servo receives the signal sent by MCU or receiver and produces a reference signal with a period of 20ms and width of 1.5ms, then compares the acquired DC bias voltage to the voltage of the potentiometer and obtain the voltage difference output.<br>
-The LED flickers faster than before through the test result, therefore, pins and delay time affect flash frequency.
+When the motor speed is constant, the potentiometer is driven to rotate through the cascade reduction gear, which leads that the voltage difference is 0, and the motor stops rotating. Generally, the angle range of servo rotation is 0° --180 °
-== Project 2: Adjust LED Brightness ==
+The rotation angle of servo motor is controlled by regulating the duty cycle of PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) signal. The standard cycle of PWM signal is 20ms (50Hz). Theoretically, the width is distributed between 1ms-2ms, but in fact, it's between 0.5ms-2.5ms. The width corresponds the rotation angle from 0° to 180°. But note that for different brand motor, the same signal may have different rotation angle.
-(1)Description
+<br>[[File:0428-69.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-In previous lesson, we control LED on and off and make it blink.
-In this project, we will control LED brightness through PWM to simulate breathing effect. Similarly, you can change the step length and delay time in the code so as to demonstrate different breathing effect.
-PWM is a means of controlling the analog output via digital means. Digital control is used to generate square waves with different duty cycles (a signal that constantly switches between high and low levels) to control the analog output.In general, the input voltage of port are 0V and 5V. What if the 3V is required? Or what if switch among 1V, 3V and 3.5V? We can’t change resistor constantly. For this situation, we need to control by PWM.
-<br>[[File:0085=33.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+The corresponding servo angles are shown below:
+<br>[[File:0428-70.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-For the Arduino digital port voltage output, there are only LOW and HIGH, which correspond to the voltage output of 0V and 5V. You can define LOW as 0 and HIGH as 1, and let the Arduino output five hundred 0 or 1 signals within 1 second.
-If output five hundred 1, that is 5V; if all of which is 1, that is 0V. If output 010101010101 in this way then the output port is 2.5V, which is like showing movie. The movie we watch are not completely continuous. It actually outputs 25 pictures per second. In this case, the human can’t tell it, neither does PWM. If want different voltage, need to control the ratio of 0 and 1. The more 0,1 signals output per unit time, the more accurately control.

-There is a new function in the following ----- analogWrite()
+</pre>
-We know that digital port only has two state of 0 and 1. So how to send an analog value to a digital value? Here,this function is needed. Let’s observe the Arduino board and find 6 pins marked“~”which can output PWM signals.
-Function format as follows:
-analogWrite(pin,value)
-analogWrite() is used to write an analog value from 0~255 for PWM port, so the value is in the range of 0~255. Attention that you only write the digital pins with PWM function, such as pin 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11.
-PWM is a technology to obtain analog quantity through digital method. Digital control forms a square wave, and the square wave signal only has two states of turning on and off (that is, high or low levels). By controlling the ratio of the duration of turning on and off, a voltage varying from 0 to 5V can be simulated. The time turning on(academically referred to as high level) is called pulse width, so PWM is also called pulse width modulation.
-Through the following five square waves, let’s acknowledge more about PWM.
-<br>[[File:0085=37.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+'''(7)Test Result'''
-In the above figure, the green line represents a period, and value of analogWrite() corresponds to a percentage which is called Duty Cycle as well. Duty cycle implies that high-level duration is divided by low-level duration in a cycle. From top to bottom, the duty cycle of first square wave is 0% and its corresponding value is 0. The LED brightness is lowest, that is, turn off. The more time high level lasts, the brighter the LED. Therefore, the last duty cycle is 100%, which correspond to 255, LED is brightest. 25% means darker.
+Upload code successfully and power on, servo rotates in the range of 0° to 180°. The result is same. We usually control it by library file.
-PWM mostly is used for adjusting the LED brightness or rotation speed of motor.
-It plays vital role in controlling smart robot car. I believe that you can’t wait to enter next project.

+As the above picture shown, it is like two eyes. One is transmitting end, the other is receiving end.
-'''Connection Diagram：'''
+The ultrasonic module will emit the ultrasonic waves after trigger signal. When the ultrasonic waves encounter the object and are reflected back, the module outputs an echo signal, so it can determine the distance of object from the time difference between trigger signal and echo signal.
+The t is the time that emitting signal meets obstacle and returns.
+and the propagation speed of sound in the air is about 343m/s, therefore,  distance = speed * time, because the ultrasonic wave emits and comes back, which is 2 times of distance, so it needs to be divided by 2, the distance measured by ultrasonic wave = (speed * time)/2
-<br>[[File:0428-59.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+.Use method and timing chart of ultrasonic module:
-The two photoresistor sensors are linked with A1 and A2, then finish the experiment via photoresistor connected to A1. Then finish the following experiment via photoresistor connected A1. Let’s read its analog value.
+Setting the delay time of Trig pin of SR04 to 10μs at least, which can trigger it to detect distance.
+. After triggering, the module will automatically send eight 40KHz ultrasonic pulses and detect whether there is a signal return. This step will be completed automatically by the module.

-'''(1)Description'''
-<br>[[File:Ks0194- servo.png|300px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+(8)Code Explanation
+int trigPin = 5; this pin is defined pin to transmit ultrasonic waves, generally output.
+int echoPin = 4; this is defined as the pin of reception, generally input
+cm = (duration/2) / 29.1;   inches = (duration/2) / 74;  by 0.0135
+We can calculate the distance by using the following formula:
+distance = (traveltime/2) x speed of sound
+The speed of sound is: 343m/s = 0.0343 cm/uS = 1/29.1 cm/uS
+Or in inches: 13503.9in/s = 0.0135in/uS = 1/74in/uS
+We need to divide the traveltime by 2 because we have to take into account that the wave was sent, hit the object, and then returned back to the sensor.
+(9)Extension Practice:
+We have just measured the distance displayed by the ultrasonic. How about controlling the LED with the measured distance? Let's try it, connect an LED light module to the D10 pin.
-Servo motor is a position control rotary actuator. It mainly consists of housing, circuit board, core-less motor, gear and position sensor. Its working principle is that the servo receives the signal sent by MCU or receiver and produces a reference signal with a period of 20ms and width of 1.5ms, then compares the acquired DC bias voltage to the voltage of the potentiometer and obtain the voltage difference output.<br>
+<br>[[File:0428-87.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-When the motor speed is constant, the potentiometer is driven to rotate through the cascade reduction gear, which leads that the voltage difference is 0, and the motor stops rotating. Generally, the angle range of servo rotation is 0° --180 °
+<pre>
+/*
-The rotation angle of servo motor is controlled by regulating the duty cycle of PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) signal. The standard cycle of PWM signal is 20ms (50Hz). Theoretically, the width is distributed between 1ms-2ms, but in fact, it's between 0.5ms-2.5ms. The width corresponds the rotation angle from 0° to 180°. But note that for different brand motor, the same signal may have different rotation angle.

+There is no doubt that infrared remote control is ubiquitous in daily life. It is used to control various household appliances, such as TVs, stereos, video recorders and satellite signal receivers. Infrared remote control is composed of infrared transmitting and infrared receiving systems, that is, an infrared remote control and infrared receiving module and a single-chip microcomputer capable of decoding.    <br>
+The 38K infrared carrier signal emitted by remote controller is encoded by the encoding chip in the remote controller. It is composed of a section of pilot code, user code, user inverse code, data code, and data inverse code. The time interval of the pulse is used to distinguish whether it is a 0 or 1 signal and the encoding is made up of these 0, 1 signals. <br>
+The user code of the same remote control is unchanged. The data code can distinguish the key.<br>
+When the remote control button is pressed, the remote control sends out an infrared carrier signal. When the IR receiver receives the signal, the program will decode the carrier signal and determines which key is pressed. The MCU decodes the received 01 signal, thereby judging what key is pressed by the remote control.<br>
+Infrared receiver we use is an infrared receiver module. Mainly composed of an infrared receiver head, it is a device that integrates reception, amplification, and demodulation. Its internal IC has completed demodulation, and can achieve from infrared reception to output and be compatible with TTL signals. Additionally, it is suitable for infrared remote control and infrared data transmission. The infrared receiving module made by the receiver has only three pins, signal line, VCC and GND. It is very convenient to communicate with arduino and other microcontrollers.<br>

+Bluetooth, a simple wireless communication module most popular since the last few decades and easy to use are being used in most of the battery-powered devices.<br>
+Over the years, there have been many upgrades of Bluetooth standard to keep fulfil the demand of customers and technology according to the need of time and situation.
+Over the few years, there are many things changed including data transmission rate, power consumption with wearable and IoT Devices and Security System.<br>
+Here we are going to learn about HM-10 BLE 4.0 with Arduino Board. The HM-10 is a readily available Bluetooth 4.0 module. This module is used for establishing wireless data communication. The module is designed by using the Texas Instruments CC2540 or CC2541 Bluetooth low energy (BLE) System on Chip (SoC). <br>
-'''(4)The principle of ultrasonic sensor'''
-As the above picture shown, it is like two eyes. One is transmitting end, the other is receiving end.
+(2)Specification
-The ultrasonic module will emit the ultrasonic waves after trigger signal. When the ultrasonic waves encounter the object and are reflected back, the module outputs an echo signal, so it can determine the distance of object from the time difference between trigger signal and echo signal.
+* Bluetooth protocol: Bluetooth Specification V4.0 BLE
-The t is the time that emitting signal meets obstacle and returns.
+* No byte limit in serial port Transceiving
-and the propagation speed of sound in the air is about 343m/s, therefore,  distance = speed * time, because the ultrasonic wave emits and comes back, which is 2 times of distance, so it needs to be divided by 2, the distance measured by ultrasonic wave = (speed * time)/2
+* In open environment, realize 100m ultra-distance communication with iphone4s
+* Working frequency: 2.4GHz ISM band
+* Modulation method: GFSK(Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying)
+* Transmission power: -23dbm, -6dbm, 0dbm, 6dbm, can be modified by AT command.
+* Sensitivity: ≤-84dBm at 0.1% BER
+* Transmission rate: Asynchronous: 6K bytes ; Synchronous: 6k Bytes
+* Security feature: Authentication and encryption
+* Supporting service: Central & Peripheral UUID FFE0, FFE1
+* Power consumption: Auto sleep mode, stand by current 400uA~800uA, 8.5mA during transmission.
+* Power supply: 5V DC
+* Working temperature: –5 to +65 Centigrade
-.Use method and timing chart of ultrasonic module:
-Setting the delay time of Trig pin of SR04 to 10μs at least, which can trigger it to detect distance.
-. After triggering, the module will automatically send eight 40KHz ultrasonic pulses and detect whether there is a signal return. This step will be completed automatically by the module.
-. If the signal returns, the Echo pin will output a high level, and the duration of the high level is the time from the transmission of the ultrasonic wave to the return.

-(8)Code Explanation
+<br>[[File:0428-103.png|300px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-int trigPin = 5; this pin is defined pin to transmit ultrasonic waves, generally output.
-int echoPin = 4; this is defined as the pin of reception, generally input
+.Click Write Value, appear the interface to enter HEX or Text.<br>
-cm = (duration/2) / 29.1;   inches = (duration/2) / 74;  by 0.0135
-We can calculate the distance by using the following formula:
+<br>[[File:0428-104.png|300px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-distance = (traveltime/2) x speed of sound
-The speed of sound is: 343m/s = 0.0343 cm/uS = 1/29.1 cm/uS
+.Open the serial monitor on Arduino，enter a 0 or other character at Text interface.<br>
-Or in inches: 13503.9in/s = 0.0135in/uS = 1/74in/uS
-We need to divide the traveltime by 2 because we have to take into account that the wave was sent, hit the object, and then returned back to the sensor.
+<br>[[File:0428-105.png|300px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-(9)Extension Practice:
-We have just measured the distance displayed by the ultrasonic. How about controlling the LED with the measured distance? Let's try it, connect an LED light module to the D10 pin.
+Then click“Write”, open serial monitor to view if there is a “0” signal
+<br>[[File:0428-106.png|300px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+(7)Code Explanation
+Serial.available() : The current rest characters when return to buffer area. Generally, this function is used to judge if there is data in buffer. When Serial.available()>0, it means that serial receives the data and can be read<br>
+Serial.read()：Read a data of a Byte in buffer of serial port, for instance, device sends data to Arduino via serial port, then we could read data by “Serial.read()”

+<br>[[File:0428-110.png|300px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-There is no doubt that infrared remote control is ubiquitous in daily life. It is used to control various household appliances, such as TVs, stereos, video recorders and satellite signal receivers. Infrared remote control is composed of infrared transmitting and infrared receiving systems, that is, an infrared remote control and infrared receiving module and a single-chip microcomputer capable of decoding.
-The 38K infrared carrier signal emitted by remote controller is encoded by the encoding chip in the remote controller. It is composed of a section of pilot code, user code, user inverse code, data code, and data inverse code. The time interval of the pulse is used to distinguish whether it is a 0 or 1 signal and the encoding is made up of these 0, 1 signals.
-The user code of the same remote control is unchanged. The data code can distinguish the key.
-When the remote control button is pressed, the remote control sends out an infrared carrier signal. When the IR receiver receives the signal, the program will decode the carrier signal and determines which key is pressed. The MCU decodes the received 01 signal, thereby judging what key is pressed by the remote control.
-Infrared receiver we use is an infrared receiver module. Mainly composed of an infrared receiver head, it is a device that integrates reception, amplification, and demodulation. Its internal IC has completed demodulation, and can achieve from infrared reception to output and be compatible with TTL signals. Additionally, it is suitable for infrared remote control and infrared data transmission. The infrared receiving module made by the receiver has only three pins, signal line, VCC and GND. It is very convenient to communicate with arduino and other microcontrollers.

-If we add an expression panel to the robot, it will be amazing. Keyestudio's 8*16 dot matrix can meet your requirements. You can create facial expressions, patterns or other interesting displays yourself. 8*16 LED light board comes with 128 LEDs. The data of the microprocessor (arduino) communicates with the AiP1640 through the two-wire bus interface, so as to control the 128 LEDs on the module, which produce the patterns you need on dot matrix. To facilitate wiring, we also provide a HX-2.54 4Pin wiring.
+We’ve introduce how to use various sensors, modules. <br>
+In this lesson, we combine with hardware knowledge -- photoresistor module, motor driving, to build a light-following robot!<br>
+Just need to use 2 photoresistor modules to detect the light intensity at the both side of robot. Read the analog value to rotate the 2 motors, thus drive the tank robot run. <br>

+Hook-up Attention:
+The 4Pin terminal block is marked with silkscreen 1234. The red line of right rear motor is connected to terminal 1, black line is linked with end 2. The red line of left front motor is attached to terminal 3, black line is linked with port 4. <br>
-The principle of 8*16 dot matrix:
-How to control each led light of 8*16 dot matrix? We know that a byte has 8 bits, each bit is 0 or 1. When a bit is 0, turn off LED and when a bit is 0, turn on LED. Thereby, one byte can control the LED in a row of dot matrix, so 16 bytes can control 16 columns of led lights, that is, 8*16 dot matrix.
-Interface Description and Communication Protocol:
+[[File:0428-136.png|500px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-The data of the microprocessor (arduino) communicates with the AiP1640 through the two-wire bus interface.
-The communication protocol diagram is shown below:
- (SCLK) is SCL, (DIN) is SDA:
-<br>[[File:0428-123.png|700px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
-①The starting condition for data input: SCL is high level and SDA changes from high to low.
+(3)Test Code
-②For data command setting, there are methods as shown in the figure below
-In our sample program, select the way to add 1 to the address automatically, the binary value is 0100 0000 and the corresponding hexadecimal value is 0x40
-<br>[[File:0428-124.png|700px|frameless|thumb]]<br>
+<pre>
-③For address command setting, the address can be selected as shown below.
+/*
-The first 00H is selected in our sample program, and the binary number 1100 0000 corresponds to the hexadecimal 0xc0

-④The requirement for data input is that SCL is high level when inputting data, the signal on SDA must remain unchanged. Only when the clock signal on SCL is low level, the signal on SDA can be altered. The data input is low-order first, high-order is behind
+*/
-⑤ The condition to end data transmission is that when SCL is low, SDA is low, and when SCL is high, the SDA level also becomes high.
