Arduino + Android Projects for the Evil Genius

 

TEAM ARDUINO UP WITH ANDROID FOR SOME MISCHIEVOUS FUN!

This wickedly inventive guide covers the Android Open Application Development Kit (ADK) and USB interface and explains how to use them with the basic Arduino platform. Methods of communication between Android and Arduino that don't require the ADK--including sound, Bluetooth, and WiFi/Ethernet are also discussed. An Arduino ADK programming tutorial helps you get started right away.
