Overview of this book

Arduino platform is an open-source electronic prototyping platform enabling users to create interactive electronic objects. In this course, a detailed background of all the electronics principles and operation of the electrical components for each project will first be discussed. The wiring of components and layout of the project will then be covered in the circuit diagram. Detailed step-by-step videos will show how you how to wire up and assemble the components for the project. The code will be uploaded to demo the project and how it works. A detailed line-by-line code review will describe how the software and hardware components play together. The first few sections will get you up to speed on what the platform is and how to use it. Then in the intermediate projects’ sections, you will focus on making game-type projects using Arduino and even an infrared repeater that can allow you to copy, store, and playback any IR signal, just like your own universal remote. Next, in the advanced projects section, you will tackle projects such as an online weather station, a remote-controlled car that you can drive with a smartphone app, and a working phone that can make actual calls and send text messages, and more. By the end of this course, you will be proficient and confident enough to use the Arduino board for building projects and solving real-world problems.

Open-Source Phone - Part 2 - Making a Call, Sending SMS, Tune in FM Frequencies
Now that you have assembled your phone, this video will focus on testing it out. You will validate that your SIM is inserted correctly and that you are connected to a cell tower from your Arduino test program, and then you will make and receive a call and send and retrieve text messages! We will also demonstrate how to tune into an FM frequency so you can listen to the radio.
