Book Description

This book is different than many Arduino books in that it expects no previous knowledge in electronics or programming. Instead of going into depth teaching those topics, it teaches only enough so that you can make things. In this book, you will:

• Use lights to quickly learn basic programming concepts
• Make noise and music on a speaker
• Make a digital thermometer
• Add graphics to your thermometer to show a graph of recorded temperature
• Play with sensors to detect light, magnets, and knocking
• Make a rubber band gun that uses a joystick for panning, tilting, and firing
• Be encouraged to go create your own projects!There are exercises after each chapter (with sample solutions) to help you make sure you understand the concepts

• Introduction to Arduino: A Piece of Cake (Alan G. Smith)
• The Mirror Site (1) - PDF
• The Mirror Site (2) - PDF

• Arduino Projects Book (Scott Fitzgerald, et al.)

  This book walks you through the basics in a hands-on way, with creative projects you build by learning. You'll have a palette of software and circuits that you can use to create something beautiful, and make someone smile with what you invent.

• Getting Started With Arduino: A Beginner's Guide

  This guide takes you through everything you need to know to get started with your own basic Arduino projects and lead you on to more interesting ideas. It will further help you develop a clear understanding of the latest Arduino boards.

• Arduino Programming Notebook (Brian W. Evans)

  This book is a beginner's reference to the programming syntax of the Arduino microcontroller. It also includes an appendix with schematics and simple programs for several common tasks.

• Arduino Succinctly (Marko Svaljek)

  Arduino provide a great introduction to physical computing, allowing you to design devices comprising the Internet of Things. This book explains the fundamentals of the Arduino Uno board and how it interacts with common components.

• Embedded Controllers Using C and Arduino (James Fiore)

  This text is designed to introduce and expand upon material related to the C programming language and embedded controllers, and specifically, the Arduino development system and associated Atmel ATmega microcontrollers.

• C Programming for Arduino (Julien Bayle)

  This free 512 page Arduino eBook covers everything you need to know to start wiring and coding your own Arduino projects. You’ll learn C/C++ and how to work with different types of firmware for your Arduino.
