1Sheeld+ transforms your smartphone into a re - configurable Arduino shield. It's a brand - new, easily configured shield for Arduino. Connect it to a mobile app and unlock all your smartphone's capabilities like the LCD screen, gyroscope, switches, LEDs, accelerometer, magnetometer, GSM, Wi - Fi, GPS and more in your Arduino sketch. Now, the 1Sheeld+ supports both iOS and Android! There are over 40 shields available in 1Sheeld. The shield physically connects to your Arduino board and acts as a wireless middle - man, transferring data between Arduino and your Android/iOS smartphone via Bluetooth. The software platform and app on Android smartphones manage the communication and let you choose from different shields. With 1Sheeld+, you can use your smartphone's sensors and peripherals as input or output for Arduino, saving you the cost of buying actual shields. You can control an RC car with the phone's gyroscope or tweet when someone enters the room. Our goal is to offer faster and cheaper ways to prototype your Arduino projects. The possibilities are endless! You can use your powerful smartphone to control an RC car, tweet when plants need water, and have fun with friends. We've developed various shields for 1Sheeld+ such as LED, Toggle Button, Buzzer, Slider, LCD, 7 - Segment, Keypad, Music Player, Game Pad, Notifications, Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare, Gyroscope, SMS, Flashlight and Mic, with more on the way. Technical Specs: It uses a standard HC - 06 Bluetooth adapter (Bluetooth 2.1), has a range up to 30 feet, runs on an Atmel ATMega162 with a 7.37 MHz operating frequency, communicates with Arduino using UART at a baud rate of 115,200 b/s.
Using 1Sheeld+ is easy. First, physically connect the shield to your Arduino board. Then, pair it with your Android or iOS smartphone via Bluetooth using the provided mobile app. In the app, you can choose from a wide range of shields according to your project needs. For example, if you want to control an RC car, select the Gyroscope Sensor Shield. When using 1Sheeld+, make sure your smartphone's Bluetooth is enabled and within the 30 - foot range of the shield. Also, ensure that the shield has a stable power supply. For maintenance, keep the shield clean and avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you encounter any communication issues, check the Bluetooth connection and the baud rate settings in your Arduino sketch. That's it! Have fun creating amazing Arduino projects with 1Sheeld+.
