Application of Arduino
Introduction
What’s Arduino?
Arduino is an open-source hardware project platform. This platform includes a circuit board with simple I/O function and program development environment software. It can be used to develop interactive products. For example, it can read signals of multiple switches and sensors, and control light, servo motor and other various physical devices. It’s widely applied in robot field.
Arduino installation and program upload:
First, download the Arduino development software, click below hyperlink:
arduino-1.5.6-r2-windows.rar
Downloaded file is a arduino-1.5.6-r2-windows.zip compressed folder, unzip it to your hard drive.
Double click Arduino-1.5.6 .exe.
Click “I agree”;
Click “Next”;
And then “Install”;
Wait for the installation to be completed, click close.
Below figure is what Arduino 1.5.6 looks like.
Next, let’s install Arduino driver.
For different operating system, there may be slight difference in installation method. Below is an example in WIN 7.
When you connect Arduino Uno to your computer at the first time, right click “Computer” —> “Properties”—> “Device manager”, you can see “Unknown devices”.
Click “Unknown devices”, select “Update Driver software”.
In this page, click “Browse my computer for driver software”.
Find the “drivers” file.
Click “Next”; select “Install this driver software anyway” to begin the installation.
Installation completed; click “Close”.
After driver is installed, go to “Device manager” again. Right click “Computer” —> “Properties”—> “Device manager”, you can see UNO device as below figure shows, also with the Com port info.
Following is a sketch uploading example called “Hello World！”.
First, open Arduino IDE. In this example sketch, we program Arduino to display “Hello World！” on serial monitor when it receives a specific character string “R”; also the on-board D13 LED will blink once each time it receives “R”.
First, set up board; In “Tools”, select “Arduino Uno”.
Next, set up COM port; In “Tools”, select “COM3”.
After selection, you can see indicated area is the same with settings in “Device manager”.
Copy the example sketch and paste it to the IDE; click “Verify 
” to check compiling mistakes; click “Upload 
” to upload the program to the board.
After uploading is done, open “serial monitor
”; enter “R”; click “Send”, the serial monitor will display “Hello World!” and the D13 LED will blink once.
Congratulations! Your first sketch uploading is successful!
Project Details
Project 1: Ultrasonic Sensor
Introduction
The HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor is a very affordable proximity distance sensor that has been used mainly for object avoidance in various robotics projects. It essentially gives your Arduino eyes spacial awareness and can prevent your robot from crashing or falling off a table. It has also been used in turret applications, water level sensing, and even as a parking sensor. This simple project will use the HC-SR04 sensor with an Arduino and a Processing sketch to provide a neat little interactive display on your computer screen.

distance of the nearest object by bouncing soundwaves off of it. */
digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(2);
digitalWrite(trigPin, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(10);
digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW);
duration = pulseIn(echoPin, HIGH);
//Calculate the distance (in cm) based on the speed of sound.
distance = duration/58.2;
if (distance >= maximumRange || distance <= minimumRange){
/* Send a negative number to computer and Turn LED ON
to indicate "out of range" */
Serial.println("-1");
digitalWrite(LEDPin, HIGH);
}
else {
/* Send the distance to the computer using Serial protocol, and
turn LED OFF to indicate successful reading. */
Serial.println(distance);
digitalWrite(LEDPin, LOW);
}
//Delay 50ms before next reading.
delay(50);
}

It adopts Bluetooth 2.1+EDR standard. In Bluetooth 2.1, signal transmit time of different devices stands at a 0.5 seconds interval so that the workload of bluetooth chip can be reduced substantially and more sleeping time can be saved for bluetooth. This module is set with serial interface, which is easy-to-use and simplifying overall design/development cycle.

Project 3: Obstacle-avoidance Tank
Introduction
This project is a simple obstacle avoidance tank robot system based on Arduino, including the software and hardware design. The controller part is a UNO board. Ultrasonic sensor and servo motors are used to detect whether there are obstacles ahead, and feedback the signal to UNO. UNO will analyze the signal to determine and control the motors movement to adjust Tank moving direction. Therefore the tank robot can automatically avoid obstacles.
Working Principle
Ultrasonic ranging: the controller sends out a a high level signal of more than 10μs, when the output pin receives the high level signal, the timer will be on; when the signal changes to low level, we can read the time period of the timer, which is the time used for this ultrasonic wave transceiving. Together with its transmission speed, we can calculate the distance.
After we use the ultrasonic sensor to detect the distance from an obstacle, we can control the movement of the Tank according to the data.
If the distance from the obstacle is < 10cm, the Tank moves backward; if the distance is >=25cm, the Tank moves forward; if the distance is <25cm, we control the movement of the servo motors to measure the distance of the left and right. If both the distance are <10cm, the Tank moves backward; if the distance are both >= 10cm, and distance on the left is more than the distance on the right, the Tank moves to the left; if distance on the left is <= the distance on the right, the Tank moves to the right.

Project 4: Bluetooth Control Tank Robot
Introduction
This project is a tank robot system based on Bluetooth communication, including software and hardware design. The controller part is a UNO board. A Bluetooth module is used to receive the Bluetooth signal from the cellphone and feedback the signal to the UNO. UNO will analyze the signal to determine and control the motors movement to adjust car moving direction. Therefore the tank robot can be controlled by cellphone.
Working Principle
1. The Bluetooth module is connected to UNO; the module communicates with cell phone through a Bluetooth APP.
2. The Bluetooth APP on the cell phone will pass information of “U”“D”“L”“R”“S” to the Bluetooth module.
3. The Bluetooth module will pass the information to the UNO, so the UNO can determine car movement according to the information received.
4. When the UNO receives a “U”, the car goes straight forward; when it receives a “D”, the car goes backward; “L” for turning left; “R” for turning right; and “S” for stop.
Bluetooth Usage
Connect main board +5V to Bluetooth VCC, GND to Bluetooth GND, TX to Bluetooth RX and RX to Bluetooth TX.
Remember to open the Bluetooth on your phone; when you open the Bluetooth APP, it will remind you.Pair up Bluetooth device on your phone, search and pair.
Pair up device, PIN No. is 1234.
Open Bluetooth APP and pair up Bluetooth device. After it’s paired, the Bluetooth module can communicate with cell phone.

Project 5: ltrasonic Ranging Tank Robot
Introduction
In project 3, we use the ultrasonic sensor module for the tank to realize obstacle avoidance function. In project 4, we use a HC-06 Bluetooth module for the tank, so the tank can be controlled form a cellphone terminal.
This project is based on project 3 and project 4. Here, we apply echo sounding method for the ranging. The trig end of ultrasonic sensor will launch ultrasonic wave in a specific direction. At the same time, the timer begins to count; when the ultrasonic wave encounters an obstacle, it’s reflected back; when the echo end receives the signal, the timer stops the count. With the traveling speed of the wave and the traveling time, we can calculate the distance between the launching point and the obstacle.
Also,we will use the HC-06 Bluetooth module for the Tank to communicate with the terminal. The tank will send the measured distance to the terminal, so we can see clearly the distance between the tank and the obstacle while the tank is on.
This robot can be used in outdoor exploration or terrain exploration in a confined space.
