Category: Really Getting Started With Arduino

Sensors and actuators are electronic components that allow a piece of electronics to interact with the world. As the microcontroller is a very simple computer, it can process only electric signals (a bit like the electric pulses that are sent between neurons in our brains). For it to sense light, temperature, or other physical quantities,… Continue reading Sensors and Actuators

All of the objects we will build using Arduino follow a very simple pattern that we call the interactive device. The interactive device is an electronic circuit that is able to sense the environment by using sensors (electronic components that convert real-world measurements into electrical signals). The device processes the information it gets from the sensors with behaviour… Continue reading Anatomy of an Interactive Device
