Practical Arduino Engineering: End to End Development with the Arduino, Fusion 360, 3D Printing, and Eagle: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Practical Arduino Engineering: End to End Development with the Arduino, Fusion 360, 3D Printing, and Eagle" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Implement Arduino-based designs in your project, and build, debug, and extend it using a solid engineering approach. This second edition is expanded to provide a better understanding of the engineering process and what it means to be an end-to-end developer.

Youll start out by reviewing basic engineering procedures, from the fundamental requirements and preliminary design to prototyping and testing. Youll then apply those principles to single devices like LCDs, potentiometers and GPS modules, and move on to the integration of several modules into a larger project, a sub-autonomous robot. This robot will include devices such as GPS, Bluetooth, an OLED screen, an accelerometer, humidity and temp sensor, motor drivers, and ultrasonic sensor.

This version goes on to cover how to create 3D models with Fusion360, make your own PCBs using Eagle, and use and maintain a 3D printer. Each and every chapter exemplifies this process and demonstrates how you can profit from the implementation of solid engineering principlesregardless of whether you just play in your basement or you want to publicize and sell your devices. With Practical Adruino Engineering youll be able to review and improve this process, and even extend its scope.

What Youll Learn

Set up the Arduino software landscape and project for testing

Review the process of hardware engineering as applicable to Arduino projects

Create 3D models for 3D printing using Fusion360 in a robot chassis project

Make PCBs using Eagle and incorporate it into a sensor station shield project

Use and maintain a 3D printer with your own project

Create Arduino shields in Eagle

Debug Arduino projects of varying complexities via LabVIEW

Use a special Arduino board for Bluetooth to control domestic and mobile Arduino projects

Who This Book Is For

Primarily aimed at intermediate engineers or engineering students. However, this book is also great for beginners and any maker who wants to expand their abilities in a single book.

Preface
Hello reader! Welcome to the wonderful world of engineering. First off, this book is divided into two main sections: the first section will teach you about the various bits of software and hardware that we will be using in this book. The topics in this section include
  • The Engineering Process

  • An Arduino Software Review

  • 3D Modeling with Autodesk Fusion 360

  • PCB Design with Autodesk Eagle

  • First Section Final Project

Once those are completed, we move to the final project where you will be given a requirements document that you will need to interpret and understand to make the final project all while using the skills you obtained in the previous section of this book. The topics in this section are
  • Final Project PCB

  • Final Project 3D Model

  • Final Project Software

  • Final Project Putting It All Together

Once completed, you will have a unique robot that you can modify and elaborate on for future projects. So without further ado, lets get started with the engineering process.

Acknowledgments

I would like to thank my beautiful wife Alexandria for being very patient with me while I wrote this book. I also want to thank my daughter Natalie for inspiring me every day. As always, I want to thank my mom (Bonnie), dad (George), sister (Amanda), and brother (George) for always believing in me.

I want to thank the Apress team for helping me complete this book. It was rough with COVID, but we finally finished the book! I want to personally thank Natalie Pao and Jessica Vakili. They helped me navigate through this process again effectively and efficiently. Also, I want to thank my Technical Editor Sai Yamanoor. His thoughts were insightful and made this book much better.

I want to thank the Arduino Team for developing a truly revolutionary product. I want to thank SparkFun, Pololu, PCBWay, Autodesk, Simplify3D, National Instruments, and Adafruit. You all make making so much more enjoyable and attainable.

About the Author
Harold Timmis
since he was a small child has fostered a curiosity for technology taking - photo 3

, since he was a small child, has fostered a curiosity for technology, taking apart everything in his parents house just to see how it all worked. This fueled his thirst for knowledge of computer science, programming, and its uses. He has worked with LabVIEW and Arduino for the past 13 years. During that time, he has been involved in several professional projects using LabVIEW, as well as many hobbyist projects utilizing both Arduino and LabVIEW. Harold attended the Florida Institute of Technology, where he studied computer engineering and was introduced to LabVIEW and Arduino. Later, he worked at the Harris Corporation and General Electric, where he created several LabVIEW projects for trains and became very interested in the Arduino, data acquisition, and control theory.

About the Technical Reviewer
Sai Yamanoor

is an embedded systems engineer working for an industrial gases company in Buffalo, NY. His interests, deeply rooted in DIY and Open Source Hardware, include developing gadgets that aid behavior modification. He has published two books with his brother, and in his spare time, he likes to contribute to build things that improve quality of life.

1. The Process of Arduino Engineering
Harold Timmis

Jacksonville, FL, USA
In this chapter, we will discuss the engineering process and how you can use it to streamline your prototypes by avoiding problems with hardware and software and keeping to a fixed schedule. Throughout this book, you will have projects that will be organized into a sequence I like to call the engineering process. Heres a quick summary of the sequence:
  1. Requirements gathering

  2. Creating the requirements document

  3. Gathering hardware

  4. Configuring the hardware

  5. Writing the software

  6. Debugging the Arduino software

  7. Troubleshooting the hardware

  8. Finished prototype

As you can imagine, even this summary of the engineering process is very effective when prototyping, which is why we will use it with the Arduino in this book. What is the Arduino? The Arduino is a very customizable microcontroller used by hobbyists and engineers alike. Also, it is open source, which means that the source code is available to you for your programming needs; the integrated development environment (IDE) (where you will be writing your software) is free, and most resources you can find are open source. The only thing you have to buy is the Arduino microcontroller itself. The Arduino is supported very well on the Web and in books, which makes it very easy to research how-to topics; a few sites that will help you get started are www.arduino.cc and http://tronixstuff.wordpress.com/tutorials/ . But this book is more than simply a how-to reference; this book is going to teach you the engineering processa skill that is useful for making projects more readable, efficient, and reliable. This book will also focus on end to end development, another useful skill (or skills as the name implies) that will allow you to create robust prototypes and/or fully developed hardware and software, but first we will take a look at the engineering process.
