Find Port Number on Linux. Open terminal and type: ls /dev/tty. Note the port number listed for /dev/ttyUSB. or /dev/ttyACM. The port number is represented with. here. Use the listed port as the serial port in MATLAB ®. For example: /dev/ttyUSB0. Run the command by entering it in the MATLAB Command Window. Web browsers do not support MATLAB. Right-click on dpinstx86.exe (32 bit Windows) or dpinstamd64.exe (64 bit Windows) and select Run as administrator; Click on Install this driver software anyway at the Windows Security popup as the driver is unsigned; Troubleshooting How do I know if uploads are working? Look at the bottom section of the arduino program. This method is used for scanning the I2C Device inside your module that connected to I2C bus in Arduino (SDA, SCL). In Arduino Uno / Nano / Pro Mini I2C bus is connected to A4 (SDA) and A5 (SCL), for Arduino Mega 2560 I2C bus is connected to D20 (SDA) and D21 (SCL) Here I am going to show you how to scan I2C address with a simple code. Supposed one owns a USB programmer, there's another way to inspect the Arduino. Connect the programmer to the ICSP pins of the Arduino and call avrdude with the right parameters to read the fuses of your Arduino. Avrdude -c programmer-id -p partno -P port. For an Arduino Uno, partno is m328p. Programmer-id depends on the device used.

If you have multiple applications open in Windows, you may want one to be louder than the other, but what if you want to adjust levels with physical sliders like an actual DJ? If that sounds interesting, check out this controller by “Aithorn.”

The device uses an Arduino Nano to read signals from each slider and pass this info over to the computer. A Python script, along with a VBScript helper, runs on the PC to control the master and program-specific volumes.

Code for the project, which was actually written by Omri Harel, is available on GitHub. You can see the original version of it the video below, working its magic on a shoebox stand. Print files for Aithorn’s new enclosure can be found here.

In this tutorial you will learn how to visualize the motion of IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor, 'MPU-6050 [6DOF]' in 3D.

About this project

Before diving into the software part, let's assemble our hardware kits.

What is an MPU-6050 sensorThe MPU-6050 devices combine a3-axis gyroscopeand a3-axis accelerometeron the same silicon die, together with an onboardDigital Motion Processor (DMP), which processes complex 6-axisMotionFusionalgorithms. So, now you will be able to decipher the meaning of 6DOF- 6 degrees of freedom.

These MotionTracking devices are designed for the low power, low cost, and high-performance requirements of smartphones, tablets and wearable sensors.

For the details about the connection schematic and hardware setup, kindly refer to my previous blog.

Now, let's come to the processing software, which will facilitate the 3D visualization of this motion sensor.

Software required:

Considering that you already have installed ArduinoIDE involving two separate IDEs might make you feel a bit confused. Well, there's no need to panic. Follow the steps below and all your doubts will be cleared up!

Processing is quite similar to ArduinoIDE except for a few specialized functions. So, you'll see an influence/similarity in ProcessingIDE.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 will make my statements clear.

So, we see that there's a stunning visual similarity in both these IDEs.Now that you've installed the Processing IDE, you need to download a special library named 'Toxi' for processing purpose. Locating a 'Toxi' file can be very hectic on the world wide web. So, I've made it easier for you by uploading it to mygithub. Click on this link and download the file named “toxiclibs-complete-0020”.Next, extract the folder . Copy the'toxiclibs-complete-0020'folder and paste it under the'libraries'folder of Processing.Cant find 'libraries folder'? then, make one! yeah. if you can't find a 'libraries' folder, make a folder and name it as 'libraries'. Now, paste your 'toxiclibs-complete-0020'folder inside it.Having followed these steps properly, run the Processing IDE. Time to code!In order to visualise the 3D visualization , you need to first upload the Arduino code for MPU-6050 (Extract the .ino file from MPU6050_DMP6.rar folder). After having done so, you need to make certain alterations as below.You need to comment this code which says:

#define OUTPUT_READABLE_YAWPITCHROLL by// #define OUTPUT_READABLE_YAWPITCHROLL

likewise, uncomment the code that says:

//#define OUTPUT_TEAPOT by #define OUTPUT_TEAPOT

Next, open the processing example for the MPU-6050. Go to toolbar, click on File -> Open. And then navigate to the folder where you had installed the MPU-6050 library for Arduino. You can easily locate the processing example : follow the flow sequence: MPU6050 > Examples >MPU6050_DMP6 > Processing > MPUTeapot.As you did in case of ArduinoIDE, likewise in this case, check the serial-port which is defined in it. Now, check the code.You'll see that by default, the line defines it forlinux/macusers as:

String portName = '/dev/ttyUSB1';

You need to change String portName to the port on which your Arduino is connected. Refer to Figure 3.

Arduino Code To Check For Windows Orange

For windowsusers, comment this code as:

//String portName = '/dev/ttyUSB1';

Likewise, uncomment this code as:

//String portName ='COM15'; by String portName ='COM15';

Replace 'COM15' with the COM port on which your arduino is connected (check this by going into arduino and Tools -> Serial Port).So, finally the setup is complete, now it's just a matter of few minutes!Upload the Arduino code (MPU6050_DMP6) through Arduino.Note:DO NOT OPEN THE SERIAL MONITOR while the process is underway.(Why? because we will visualize the code on ProcessingIDE instead of ArduinoIDE)

Next, run the processing code (MPUTeapot) by pressing the button with 'play' symbol. You will see a small plane like object.Wait for about 10-12 seconds for the MPU-6050 values to get stabilised. After which, you will see the 3D model moving accordingly with the MPU-6050 sensor.Refer to the GIF below .For better understanding go to YouTube
