Welcome to this Spoken Tutorial on Introduction to Electroblocks. |
| Slide 2
|
In this tutorial, we will learn:
|
| Slide 3
System Requirements |
To record this tutorial, I am using:
A working internet connection to use Electroblocks. |
| Slide 4
Prerequisites |
To follow this tutorial, you should have a basic knowledge of: * How to use a computer and Google Chrome web browser |
| Only Narration. | Let us open the Electroblocks website using Google Chrome web browser. |
| Open browser
|
In the search bar, type Electroblocks and press Enter.
|
| Cursor on the web page.
Show the Arduino code. |
The electroblocks website helps you to learn the Arduino coding using block method.
|
| Cursor on the user interface. | Let us introduce ourselves to the user interface of the Electroblocks platform. |
| Hover the cursor through these options | On the left hand side of your screen, multiple options of conditional loops are available.
For example. Logic, Loops, Math, Message, Time and others. |
| Click on the Add-ons option.
Click on the Sensors option. |
Below you can see Add-ons and Sensors menus with various options.
|
| Highlight the working space of blocks | This central part is used to build a block logic to execute a program. |
| Highlight Arduino connection with breadboard using a box
Point to the simulation button |
On the right hand side of the screen, a visual representation of the Arduino is given.
|
| Point to the toolbar. | Now let us focus on the toolbar at the top of the screen. |
| Click on second option on the toolbar(</>) | Here, you can see the Arduino C++ code generated automatically in the backend.
This code helps the user to execute the experiment using the hardware components. |
| Click on the third option on the toolbar. | The electroblocks platform provides a feature to upload the code to Arduino hardware.
Now connect the Arduino to your system. |
| Show the image of the arduino connected to the system.
highlight the connection icon Click on connection icon. |
The electroblocks platform provides a feature to upload the code to Arduino hardware.
Now connect the Arduino to your system. Click on connection icon. |
| Point to the list of options.
Select the port where Arduino is connected Click on the Connect button. Highlight the upload button. Click the Upload button. |
A list of available port connections will appear.
Select the port where Arduino is connected and click on the Connect button. Once the connection is established, click on the Upload button. The Arduino code will be uploaded onto the Arduino board. |
| Point to the message.
Click OK to continue. |
We get a pop up message after the code is uploaded.
Click OK to continue. |
| Click on the sixth option. | The user can download the code or an entire project from this website.
The code will be downloaded as .ino file. If you select to download the entire project, the project will be saved in an .xml file. |
| Click on the fourth option. | Click on the Open File option.
From here you can open any saved projects from the electroblocks platform. |
| Click on the fifth option. | Let’s click on the New File option to open a new blank project. |
| Only Narration | New sensors and modules will be released with subsequent versions of Electroblocks. |
| Only Narration | This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
Let us summarize. |
