商品描述

Design, code, and build exciting wearable projects using Arduino tools

About This Book

  • Develop an interactive program using sensors and actuators suitable with wearables
  • Understand wearable programming with the help of hands-on projects
  • Explore different wearable design processes in the Arduino platform and customize them to fit your individual needs

Who This Book Is For

This book is intended for readers who are familiar with the Arduino platform and want to learn more about creating wearable projects. No previous experience in wearables is expected, although a basic knowledge of Arduino programming will help.

What You Will Learn

  • Develop a basic understanding of wearable computing
  • Learn about Arduino and its compatible prototyping platforms suitable for creating wearables
  • Understand the design process surrounding the creation of wearable objects
  • Gain insight into the materials suitable for developing wearable projects
  • Design and create projects including interactive bike gloves, GPRS locator watch, and more using various kinds of electronic components
  • Discover programming for interactivity
  • Learn how to connect and interface wearables' with Bluetooth and WiFi
  • Get your hands dirty with your own personalized designs

In Detail

The demand for smart wearable technologies is becoming more popular day by day. The Arduino platform was developed keeping wearables, such as watches that track your location or shoes that count the miles you've run, in mind. It is basically an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple microcontroller board and a development environment in which you create the software for the board. If you're interested in designing and creating your own wearables, this is an excellent platform for you.

This book provides you with the skills and understanding to create your own wearable projects. The book covers different prototyping boards which are compatible with the Arduino platform and are suitable for creating wearable projects. Each chapter of the book covers a project in which knowledge and skills are introduced gradually, making the book suitable for all kinds of readers.

You begin your journey with understanding electronic components, including LEDs and sensors, to get yourself up to scratch and comfortable with different components. You will then gain hands-on experience by creating your very first wearable project, a pair of interactive bike gloves that help you cycle at night. This is followed by a project making your own funky LED glasses and a cool GPS watch. You'll also delve into other projects including creating your own keyless doorlock, wearable NFC tags, a fitness-tracking device, and a WiFi-enabled spark board. The final project is a compilation of the previous concepts used where you make your own smart watch with fitness tracking, internet-based notifications, GPS, and of course time telling.

Style and approach

This is a project-based book that introduces each project to the reader step-by-step. Each project starts out by covering all the components individually, and then explains how to combine them into interactive objects. Each project contains an easy-to-follow guide to design and implement the electronics into wearable objects.

詳細內容

對智能可穿戴技術的需求日益增加。Arduino平台是為可穿戴設備(例如追蹤位置的手錶或計算跑步里程的鞋子)而開發的。它基本上是一個基於簡單微控制器板和開發環境的開源物理計算平台,您可以在該平台上創建板的軟件。如果您有興趣設計和創建自己的可穿戴設備,這是一個很好的平台。

本書將為您提供創建自己的可穿戴項目所需的技能和理解。本書涵蓋了與Arduino平台兼容並適用於創建可穿戴項目的不同原型板。本書的每一章都涵蓋了一個項目,逐步介紹知識和技能,適合各種讀者。

您將從了解電子元件(包括LED和感應器)開始,以便熟悉不同的元件。然後,通過創建您的第一個可穿戴項目,一對幫助您在夜間騎車的互動自行車手套,獲得實踐經驗。接下來是製作自己的時尚LED眼鏡和酷炫的GPS手錶。您還將深入探討其他項目,包括創建自己的無鑰匙門鎖、可穿戴NFC標籤、健身追踪設備和支持WiFi的火花板。最後一個項目是將之前的概念結合起來,製作一個具有健身追踪、基於互聯網的通知、GPS和時間顯示功能的智能手錶。

風格和方法

這是一本以項目為基礎的書,逐步向讀者介紹每個項目。每個項目首先介紹各個元件,然後解釋如何將它們結合成互動物件。每個項目都包含易於遵循的設計和實施電子元件到可穿戴物品的指南。
