Arduino wearables
This book is an introduction to wearable computing, prototyping, and smart materials using the Arduino platform. Every chapter takes you all the way from idea to finished project.
Even if the reader has no experience with Arduino, this book will get them set up with all the materials, software, and hardware they need. The reader will complete simple projects first, and then build on their growing expertise to make more complex projects.
By the end of the book, the reader will have learned:
- Electronics basics: how to prototype successfully Arduino programming
- How to design and build their own wearable Arduino creations
Along the way they will create wearables, such as:
- An LED bracelet: learn the basics of wearable electronics
- A synthesizer tie: accept user input and create output in response
- A solar-powered glow in the dark bag: create self-sufficient wearables
- A shape memory flower: store state and manipulate wearables
- An EL wire dress: add designer touches to wearables
- A beatbox hoodie: use a voice-activated sequencer and skin resistance to create this wearable.
'Arduino wearables' is the complete guide to getting started with Arduino and wearable computing. The 10 inspiring projects to make, learn from, and build upon will equip the reader for creating their own projects.
