App Inventor — a Google cast-out that is now maintained by MIT — is a graphical tool that unlocks the power of an Android handset to those with the most basic of programming understanding.

The Android application sends the data to a modified Arduino Due that controls the roasting process. The Arduino Due is a powerful microcontroller board based on the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 CPU.

Using a one-meter-by-one-centimeter copper cable, the Android app , and a 120-ohm resistor, Joe made a coil from all the copper wire, which then connected to the arduino via the resistor on one end.

Using a one-meter-by-one-centimeter copper cable, the Android app Tricorder, and a 120-ohm resistor, Joe made a coil from all the copper wire, which then connected to the arduino via the resistor ...

For most beginning hardware hackers, Arduino is hard and Linux/Android is easy. The folks at UDOO, a Kickstarter project that ends tonight, aim to solve that by mixing the best of both worlds. The ...

The IoT Remote app is widely accessible, available to both Android and iOS users. If you’re new to the Arduino Cloud, getting started is as simple as downloading the app and signing up.

An Arduino micro measures the weight on the load cell, and with the known densities of gin, vermouth, and Kahlua, [Tony] can get a very good idea of how much liquid is in the cocktail shaker.

The height and spoon positioning can be adjusted too, depending on pot size. An Arduino Uno helps keep the stirrer moving once the app connects. The Android app is made using the Google ADK.

You can access BT SPP in your Arduino code, treat it as a serial device and connect to your Edison project via Android phone with BT SPP App.

There's more to Android than just hacking that app or operating system, says Google. You'll soon be able to hack Android hardware too, thanks to a new Arduino-based platform.
