Weekend Projects – Android-Arduino LED Strip Lights

Complete instructions for this episode of Weekend Projects can be found at http://makezine.com/projects/android-arduino-led-strip-lights/

Control a strip of full-color LEDs using your Android’s touchscreen. Using an Android device that is compatible with USB Host Mode, you can both power and communicate with the Arduino. Build a simple driver circiut on a breadboard (no soldering required) to amplify the Arduino’s output pins to provide the necessary current to the LEDs, and create your own light show!

    It’s a lot more simple than doing the thing in? the video. Just do something like
    void loop(){
    digitalwrite(red, 255);
    digitalwrite(green, 255);
    digitalwrite(blue, 255);
    delay(100);
    digitalwrite(red, 160);
    digitalwrite(green, 255);
    digitalwrite(blue, 210);
    }

    If you are …
    If you are specially interested in using? lua I would check if you can also use it in Arduino.
    Arduino uses a slightly modified C/C++ language and you can execute lua scripts directly using a C/C++ program.
    Maybe uLua can do the trick as Arduino uses AVR.

    bluetooth transceivers are fairly cheap. i’d say that’d be a? lot more practical and (by the looks of it) safer for your phone.
