Description:


Operation of the application only with connected devices via bluetooth;

Walkthrough:

1 - Re-assemble the proto board as electric scheme;
2 - Connect the bluetooth (JY MCU) and Arduino module, see the LED is flashing;
3 - In Smartphone turn Bluetooth on and enter the application and press the Connect button;
4 - Note that the bluetooth module LED (JY MCU) and was blinking when connected to flashing and stay straight on;
5 - The devices are conetctados via bluetooth - Direct LED is lit.

6 - At this time all application buttons work and send data to the bluetooth module and the Arduino.
Remote control with full functionality for cars and robots;

The ARDUINO CONTROL RC CAR application installed on Android Smartphone remotely controls the communication with Arduino via bluetooth.

 Trigger buttons:
Lighthouse: On / Off;
Flashlight: On / Off;
Horn: On / Off;
Sound: On / Off;

Note1:. These buttons were sujeridos for the project but can trigger other devices as needed.

FORWARD: START ENGINES (M1 and M2) MOVING FORWARD;
BACKWARD: START ENGINES (M1 and M2) MOTION TO BRING;
LEFT: START ENGINES (M1 and M2) MOVE LEFT;
RIGHT: START ENGINES (M1 and M2) MOTION TO RIGHT;

Note2:. These buttons also control the starting and stopping or parking the car with the color change from green to red and lives versa.

PARK: PARKING OR STOPPING THE CAR;

SLOW MODE: POWER CONTROL ENGINE (OR SLOW LOW SPEED MODE);

TURBO MODE: POWER CONTROL ENGINE (FAST MODE OR HIGH SPEED);

Note this project the digital pins D0 and D1 are connected to the RX and TX of the Arduino board and the digital pins D2 and D3 are connected to the bluetooth module, the digital pin D13 is connected to the Arduino board led d13.

Use a smartphone with android to install this "apk.", In this example we used the Samsung Galaxy Tablet GT-P3100 Tab2 7.0 "with android version 4.0.


How it works:
The ARDUINO CONTROL RC CAR application installed on Android Smartphone with communicating with the bluetooth which is connected to the serial (mySerial) pin 2 and 3-RX-TX Arduino that receives data entities which in turn, interprets and makes the write command in corresponding digital port of the Arduino.

Warning: When working with this application keep the screen always on (do not use sleep mode or sleep) because you may lose control of the device being powered.

Note: To exit the application, always check before if the buttons are all in the "OFF" mode, then press the "disconnect" button and exit the application; Note that the bluetooth will flash indicating that the system is actually disconnected.

This is all you need to know to build your program:

LIGHTHOUSE ON - send: character "a"; LIGHTHOUSE OFF-send: character "b";
FLASHLIGHT ON - send: character "c"; LANTERN OFF-send: character "d";
HORN ON - send: character "e"; send HORN OFF: character "f";
SOUND ON - send: character "g"; SOUND OFF-send: character "h";

GO FORWARD - send: character "F"; BACKWARD-send STOP: character "S";
GO BACKWARD - send: character "B"; BACKWARD STOP - send: character "S";
GO LEFT - send: character "L"; LEFT STOP-send: character "S";
GO RIGHT - send: character "R"; STOP RIGHT - send: character "S";

PARK / STOP - send: character "S";

SLOW MODE - send: character "t";

TURBO MODE - send: character "T";
