Mobile Arduino Controller

IDIA Lab Feed, Mobile

Mobile Arduino2 logoThe Mobile Arduino Controller allows one to access an Arduino board via a mobile friendly website. It’s a website designed for mobile devices for a couple reasons…

1) Allows access from computers, not just smart phones.

2) Easier for the public to access the Arduino or multiple Arduinos for installations without searching for an app and then waiting for it to download.

3) Works on all smart phones.

The mobile website allows for near real time manipulation of anything connected to the Arduino board. It could also be used to relay sensor information back to the website or user. Right now, it is just connected to control LED’s, but it could be anything (servos, speakers, etc.)

We hope to use this for more than just turning on/off an LED on the board, but currently it is in a prototyping/research phase.

Unity Mobile Controller

Unity Mobile ControllerThe Unity Mobile Controller would allow us to have a Unity project running on a PC, and users would be able to download an app that turns their smart phone into the controller. This allows for the project running on the PC to show the player and the smart to display the controls and other information (such as maps, menus, etc.). It’s still in a research/prototyping stage right now.
