WearON is a prototyping platform for wearable designers to connect their devices quickly and simply to a smartphone, to the web and to each other.
The arduino code was developed separately using
- Arduino Uno and Red Bear Lab BLE Mini
- Red Bear Lab Blend Micro
##Note
- The arduino code was developed on Arduino version
1.0.5. Go to Arduino to download the previous version
##For WearONApp_arduino_code_ble_mini
- Install
lib->RBL_BLEMini.zipinto your Arduino library - Follow the instruction on Arduino to install the libraries in
libinto your arduino program - Open the arduino file
WearONApp_arduino_code_ble_mini - Note: When uploading the code onto Arduino Uno, make sure that you disconnect the wires that connects BLE Mini to arduino pin 0 and 1. After you have uploaded the code onto the controller board, reconnect back the wires, restart the board and you are good to go!
##For WearONApp_arduino_code_blend_micro
- Follow the set of instructions on how to set up the Arduino IDE setup for the first time in order to use board
Blend Micro 3.3V/8MHz - Install the following libraries into your Arduino library folder:
lib->ble-sdk-arduino-0.9.0.beta.ziplib->RBL_nRF8001.zip- Follow the instruction on Arduino to install the libraries in
libinto your arduino program - Install the hardware folder from
lib->Blend_Add-On.zipinto your Arduino Sketchbook folder - Replace the main.cpp in your arduino folder with the one in
lib->Blend_Add-On.zip(this is a very important step, if you didnt do this step, your Blend Micro board might lost its firmware, hence disabling the usb connection)
- Alternatively, you can also check out our Wiki for instructions on setting up Blend Micro board
- Open the arduino file
WearONApp_arduino_code_blend_micro - Note: When uploading the code, use board
Blend Micro 3.3V/8MHz
WearON is an open source initiative created by Umbrellium built for the community and for us to quickly prototype connected wearables and iot devices.
