30. What we are going to do
• Control Arduino 101’s LED blinking
• Using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
• Voice control – Google Voice API

31. Tutorial
1.LED Blink (click for source code)
2. LED PWM
3. Read analog pins

32. Process
• Arduino 101 starts then ready to be connected
• Android phone connects to Arduino 101
• Android phone send commands to Arduino 101
(repeating)
• Android phone asks to disconnect

33. App Inventor briefing
• All on cloud
• Graphical IDE
• Fast develop
• Can publish
on*Google Play
(25$USD)
• Can reach 70%
functionality of
Android
• Nothing to do
without internet
• No customized UI
• No advanced setting

35. Open hardware
Arduino
and other compatible boards

36. Arduino
