商品描述

Arduino Adventures: Escape from Gemini Station provides a fun introduction to the Arduino microcontroller by putting you (the reader) into the action of a science fiction adventure story. You'll find yourself following along as Cade and Elle explore Gemini Station—an orbiting museum dedicated to preserving and sharing technology throughout the centuries.

Trouble ensues. The station is evacuated, including Cade and Elle's class that was visiting the station on a field trip. Cade and Elle don’t make it aboard their shuttle and are trapped on the station along with a friendly artificial intelligence named Andrew who wants to help them get off the damaged station. Using some old hardware, a laptop, and some toolboxes full of electronics parts, you will follow along and build eight gizmos with Cade and Elle that will help them escape from Gemini Station.

The hardware is Arduino. Each new challenge opens a new area of Arduino and basic electronics knowledge. You’ll be taken incrementally from a simple task such as turning on a light through to a complex combination of microcontroller, electronic components, and software programming. By the end of the book you’ll be well on your way towards being able to create and implement any sort of electronically controlled device you can imagine, using the stunningly popular Arduino microcontroller.

  • Provides eight challenges, each challenge increasing in complexity
  • Builds around a fictional storyline that keeps the learning fun
  • Leaves you on a solid foundation of electronic skills and knowledge

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《Arduino冒險:逃離雙子星站》是一本有趣的書籍,通過將讀者(即你)置身於一個科幻冒險故事中,為Arduino微控制器提供了一個有趣的入門介紹。你將跟隨Cade和Elle的腳步,探索雙子星站——一個致力於保存和分享科技的軌道博物館。

故事中發生了麻煩。星站被撤離,包括Cade和Elle的班級正在參觀這個星站。Cade和Elle沒有趕上他們的航天梭,被困在星站上,與一個友好的人工智能Andrew一起。Andrew想幫助他們離開受損的星站。在使用一些舊硬件、筆記本電腦和裝滿電子零件的工具箱的過程中,你將跟隨Cade和Elle一起建造八個小玩意,幫助他們逃離雙子星站。

硬件部分使用的是Arduino。每個新的挑戰都會帶領你進入Arduino和基礎電子知識的新領域。你將從打開燈這樣的簡單任務逐步學習,直到掌握微控制器、電子元件和軟件編程的複雜組合。通過這本書,你將能夠創建和實現任何你能想像到的電子控制設備,使用廣受歡迎的Arduino微控制器。

本書提供了八個挑戰,每個挑戰的難度都在增加。故事情節使學習變得有趣。你將在電子技能和知識的堅實基礎上結束這本書。
