Arduino + Serial Studio Examples

This directory contains various examples demonstrating how to use Serial Studio to visualize data from sensors connected to an Arduino. Each example includes the Arduino code, a README file with setup instructions, and screenshots. Some examples also include Serial Studio project files (*.json) to simplify the visualization setup.

Examples Overview

1. HexadecimalADC

  • Description: This example reads analog input data from an ADC and transmits it over serial in hexadecimal format.
  • Contents:
    • HexadecimalADC.ino: Arduino code for reading and transmitting ADC data.
    • HexadecimalADC.json: Serial Studio project file for visualizing the ADC output in hexadecimal format.
    • README.md: Setup and usage instructions.
    • Screenshot: Example view in Serial Studio.

2. MPU6050

  • Description: This example captures motion and orientation data from an MPU6050 accelerometer and gyroscope. Processed data is sent to Serial Studio for real-time visualization on widgets like a g-meter or attitude indicator.
  • Contents:
    • MPU6050.ino: Arduino code for capturing and transmitting MPU6050 data.
    • MPU6050.json: Serial Studio project file for visualizing accelerometer, gyroscope and temperature data from the MPU6050 module.
    • README.md: Detailed setup instructions, including Serial Studio configuration.
    • Screenshots: project-setup.png and screenshot.png provide visual references for Serial Studio setup and data visualization.

3. PulseSensor

  • Description: This example filters and smooths pulse data from a heart rate sensor and visualizes it in Serial Studio using quick plot mode. The filtered pulse signal is transmitted for live monitoring and CSV logging.
  • Contents:
    • PulseSensor.ino: Arduino code for filtering and transmitting pulse data.
    • README.md: Step-by-step guide for setup and visualization in Serial Studio.
    • Screenshots: csv.png and screenshot.png for reference in CSV logging and Serial Studio visualization.

4. TinyGPS

  • Description: This example reads GPS data (latitude, longitude, and altitude) from a GPS module and visualizes it on a map in Serial Studio.
  • Contents:
    • TinyGPS.ino: Arduino code for capturing and transmitting GPS data.
    • TinyGPS.json: Serial Studio project file to visualize GPS data on a map.
    • README.md: Comprehensive setup instructions for GPS configuration, including Serial Studio setup.
    • Screenshots: project-setup.png and screenshot.png for guidance on map visualization in Serial Studio.

Getting Started

To use these examples:

  1. Hardware Setup: Connect the necessary components as described in each example's README file.
  2. Arduino Code: Open the Arduino .ino file in the Arduino IDE, upload it to your board, and ensure the correct baud rate and port settings are configured.
  3. Serial Studio Configuration:
    • Launch Serial Studio and import the provided JSON project file, if available.
    • Follow the configuration instructions in each example's README to set up data parsing and visualization widgets.
  4. Visualize Data: Once connected, view live data in Serial Studio through various widgets and mapping features.

Requirements

  • Arduino IDE: To compile and upload .ino files.
  • Serial Studio: For real-time data visualization. Download it from Serial Studio's website.
  • Libraries: Some examples require additional libraries (e.g., Adafruit MPU6050 or TinyGPS). Refer to individual README files for specific library requirements.
