Serial Communications
• The Ardiono can communicated with other
devices in the world using the Serial
Communications Protocol
• You can use this to have a board Send
data to another board and receive data
from another board.
• You can also use this to have the board
communicate with a workstation (Why?)
New Human Computer Interfaces - HUJI - Spring 2006
3
Serial Communications
• This communication happens via the Arduino
board's serial or USB connection and on digital
pins 0 (RX) and 1 (TX). Thus, if you use these
functions, you cannot also use pins 0 and 1 for
digital i/o.

Actuators
• Pneumatic
– Air Pressure causing movement
• Hydraulic
– Liquid Pressure causing movement
• Electronic
– Electro-magnetic movement
• Motors (Kinetic)
• Speakers (Audio)
• Lights (Visual)

Speed (RPM)
Movement – mechanics
Controlling the Position
Feedback about the position
How much weight can it carry
1. The moment of a force; the measure of a force's tendency to
torsion and rotation about an axis, equal to the vector
Torque produce
product of the radius vector from the axis of rotation to the point
of application
of the force
and the
force
vector.
How much
power
does
it
need
2. A turning or twisting force.

Motors
DC Motor:
•
•
•
•
•
Cheap.
Very easy to connect
Minimum control
Turns 360 degrees.
Can add components for more control:
– Speed: change the voltage using a POT
– Direction: change the polarity
– Position: can’t!  Add an H-Bridge circuit
New Human Computer Interfaces - HUJI - Spring 2006
18
Motors
DC Servo:
• Expensive
• Very easy to connect
• Includes all components
• Turns 90 degrees to each side
• Full control:
– Speed: change the voltage
– Position: Needs CHECKING
New Human Computer Interfaces - HUJI - Spring 2006
19
Controlling a Servo
DC Servo - Controlling the position:
• They rotate 0 to 180 degrees depending on the
pulsewidth. About 1.5 sec to move 180 degrees.
• The DC Servo takes a pulse of between 1-2 ms
every 20 ms.
• A pulse of 1 ms will turn the motor to 0 degrees;
1.5 MS will turn to 90 degrees, 2 ms will turn it to
180 degrees
• To keep a servo in its current position pulse it
with the same pulse width every 18-20 ms to
keep it there.

Motors
Stepper:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Cheap
Usually 12V
Hard to connect
Need extra components
Turns 360 degrees.
Can stay still in one position
Full control:
– Position
– Speed

21
Controlling Motors
We want to control a few elements:
• Speed
• Strength
• Direction
• Position
New Human Computer Interfaces - HUJI - Spring 2006
22
Controlling Motors
We want to control a few elements:
• Speed  power
• Strength  Current
• Direction  current direction/Pulse
• Position  Pulse
