Arduino Tutorials

This tutorial is an introduction to Arduino Object Oriented Programming. If you’re already programming using C++ and OOP, and want to start writing Arduino OOP code, you’re in the right place. I’ll show you through some examples how to re-write some of the most common Arduino tutorials using the OOP way. At the end of … Read more

When using the Arduino library, you have two simple ways of getting the current time since the Arduino board started: millis() and micros(). Those are very useful functions that you need in almost all your programs. For example, they will allow you to write multitasks programs very easily, and thus avoid using the delay() function. … Read more

Programming on Arduino is definitely not the same thing as programming on a standard computer. So, what exactly is the Arduino language? It seems like you’re programming in C/C++, but soon you realize that it’s not exactly C/C++. You don’t really know what you can do, and what you can’t do. In this post I’ll … Read more

The Arduino Uno board has over 20 pins that you can use for many different applications. In this post I’ll give you a complete and practical overview of the main Arduino Uno pins. If you’re starting with Arduino, or if you’re already a software developer and want to learn more about the bridge between software … Read more

Inside your computer, you have one or several hard drive to store all your data. But what about an Arduino board ? How can you save values directly on the Arduino board without an external storage device ? Here comes the EEPROM memory. What is the EEPROM memory ? The EEPROM memory allows you to … Read more

Let’s say you have an Arduino project where you want to execute several actions at the same time: read data from a user input, blink some LEDs, monitor a potentiometer, etc. So, basically you want to do some multitasking with Arduino. And that’s where things get a little bit complicated, especially if you’re already used … Read more

You may have already used an Arduino board, or you are thinking about whether you should use one or not. And you have this question in mind: is Arduino used in real-life products and applications? For example, is there any chance that the remote control of your TV has an embedded Arduino board, or your … Read more
