Time Narration
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.
06:25 The video at the following link summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project.

Please download and watch it.

06:34 The Spoken Tutorial Project team: conducts workshops using spoken tutorials and gives certificates on passing online tests.

For more details, please write to us.

06:49 Do you have questions in THIS Spoken Tutorial?

Please visit this site.

06:55 Choose the minute and second where you have the question.

Explain your question briefly.

07:03 Someone from our team will answer them.
07:07 The Spoken Tutorial forum is for specific questions on this tutorial.
07:12 Please do not post unrelated and general questions on them.

This will help reduce the clutter.

07:20 With less clutter, we can use these discussion as instructional material.
07:27 Spoken Tutorial Project is funded by NMEICT, MHRD, Government of India.

More information on this mission is available at this link.

07:38 This tutorial has been contributed by FOSSEE and Spoken Tutorial Project, IIT Bombay.

Thanks for watching.
