Arduino | Getting started

by Ralph Arduino

Introduction

I just want to learn and work with a new technology, so I bought a 3D printer based on an Arduino Mega 2560. (More on this in the following Blog entry)

To be prepared with the Arduino, I want to play with it. So I started with a starter kit and a sensor kit from elegoo.com

Set / Kit for Arduino MEGA2560
Most complete Ultimate Starter Kit with German tutorial, MEGA2560 R3 Microcontroller and many additional for the Arduino Mega2560 R3

Upgraded 37 in 1 Sensor Modules Kit
With English tutorial for the Arduino UNO R3 MEGA 2560 Nano

First Steps

Setup and illuminate the lab

Start with a simple project

After installing and setting up everything, I started with my first small project: Measure the distance with a sonic sensor and display it through an LCD panel:

Arduino IDEs

Platform IO

Scratch for Arduino
