00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Introduction to Arduino. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn about: the Arduino device, |
00:12 | features of Arduino,
components of Arduino board, |
00:18 | microcontrollers and
installation of Arduino IDE on Ubuntu Linux OS. |
00:26 | To record this tutorial, I am using: Arduino UNO Board, |
00:31 | Ubuntu Linux 14.04 operating system |
00:36 | and Arduino IDE. |
00:39 | To follow this tutorial, you should have basic knowledge of electronics. |
00:45 | This is the Arduino board.
The Arduino UNO board is one of the popular variant of Arduino project. |
00:53 | It contains ATMEGA328 microcontroller, Digital input/output pins, |
01:02 | Analog input pins and USB power adapter. |
01:08 | USB power adapter can be used for programming the board. |
01:13 | This is the microcontroller.
It can be found in many electronic devices - from portable music device to washing machines and cars. |
01:25 | So, what is a micro-controller?
A micro-controller is a mini computer. |
01:31 | It contains a CPU i.e. the central processing unit, memory, system clock and peripherals. |
01:41 | Micro-controller is dedicated to perform only one task and execute one specific application at a time. |
01:51 | We will see a few examples where a Micro-controller is used. |
01:56 | It is used in: printers, cars, traffic signals and motion detectors. |
02:04 | Next, we will see some of the features of Arduino. |
02:09 | Arduino IDE is an open-source software. |
02:13 | It is easy to write code and upload it to the physical board. |
02:19 | It is very easy to learn the programming language with its inbuilt functions. |
02:25 | It runs on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.
This software can be used with any Arduino board. |
02:35 | Next, we will see how to install Arduino IDE. |
02:40 | To do the installation, go to the website: www.arduino.cc |
02:48 | Click on the Download link. |
02:51 | There are various links to download Arduino for Windows, Mac operating systems and Linux. |
03:00 | At the time of recording this tutorial, we have Arduino version 1.6.9
The version may vary in the future. |
03:10 | I'll recommend to install “Windows for non admin install” for Windows Operating System. |
03:18 | Now, I will demonstrate how to install Arduino on Linux Operating System. |
03:24 | I'll click on the Linux 64bit link because my machine architecture is 64- bit. |
03:32 | Click on Linux 32-bit or 64-bit based on your system architecture. |
03:39 | Click on Just Download.
A dialog box opens. Click on the Save File. |
03:47 | It will take sometime to download. Wait until it completes. |
03:52 | In my Downloads folder, the downloaded zip file is available.
Extract the files from the Zip folder. |
04:02 | Now, let us launch the Arduino IDE from the Terminal. |
04:07 | Press CTRL +ALT + T to open the Terminal. |
04:12 | Go to the Downloads directory by typing cd Downloads. |
04:19 | Type ls to see the Arduino folder name. |
04:23 | Here, in my system it shows Arduino 1.6.9. |
04:29 | Now change the directory to Arduino 1.6.9.
Type cd arduino 1.6.9 |
04:40 | Type ls to see the list of files available. |
04:46 | In this folder, we have various files related to Arduino IDE compilers such as:
Arduino backend files and configuration files. |
05:00 | Now, let us run the arduino executable file. For this, type: dot slash arduino and press Enter to launch the Arduino IDE. |
05:16 | We can see the Arduino IDE window. |
05:20 | I have connected Arduino to the USB port of my computer.
Let us check the connection. |
05:27 | Click on the Tools menu.
This shows that Arduino UNO board is already selected. |
05:36 | In the Port menu, we can see a port number. |
05:41 | Now, let me close the Arduino IDE. |
05:45 | Click on File and Close. |
05:49 | Another way to install Arduino in Linux Operating System is by using the apt hyphen get command, in the Terminal. |
05:59 | Enter the sudo password when prompted. |
06:03 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. Let us summarize. |
06:08 | In this tutorial, we learnt about: the Arduino device,
Features of Arduino, components of Arduino board, |
06:17 | Micro-controllers and installation of Arduino IDE on Ubuntu Linux. |
