Basic Steps - Arduino and Servo services

Services: 

Hardware: 
  • 1 to several Servos
  • 1 Arduino Duemilanove, Diecimila, Uno, or clone microcontroller

This tutorial should show you the steps necessary to control a servo with an Arduino or Arduino clone micro-controller with MyRobotLab.

Connect the Arduino to a computer which will be running MyRobotLab.  Load the ArduinoSerialBare.PDE on the Arduino through the Arduino IDE.  Start MyRobotLab.  Load an Arduino service with an appropriate name.  In this case I chose "arduino" (creative no?).

Connecting an Android Phone to Arduino using Bluetooth

Services: 

Additional Software

Arduino IDEArduinoSerialBare.PDE, MyRobotLab.apk

Hardware: 
  • Smartphone running Android 2.3.3 or later
  • LED
  • 1K resistor
  • Arduino bluetooth board, or Arduino clone with bluetooth module
