Description

This project showcases how to integrate an Arduino with Python's Flask framework to create an interactive car controller. It serves as a practical example of robotics integration, perfect for learning microcontroller-based projects.

• For this code, you need Arduino IDE and a compiler for Python.

Requirements

Important

You need this hardware and software for do this proyect

• Hardware
  • Arduino board (compatible with the pins defined in the code).
  • Motor driver module (e.g., L298N or similar).
  • DC motors.
  • USB connection for Arduino communication.
• Software:
  • Arduino IDE
  • Python 3.9 or higher.
  • Flask (pip install flask)
  • Serial communication library: pyserial (pip install pyserial).

Dependencies

Important

You need to download the dependencies for the configuration to work.

• This is for the dependecies for the python code.

pip install flask pyserial

• The code for Arduino doesn't need dependencies.

Setup and Usage

• Upload the Arduino code:
  • Open the Arduino IDE and upload the provided .ino file to your Arduino board.
• Install Python dependencies:
  • Run pip install flask pyserial in your terminal.
• Run the Flask server: *python app.py
• The server will start at http://:4353 (replace with the ip the host give you).
