Adith Jagadish Boloor

Adith Jagadish Boloor was born in Mangalore, India. He grew up tinkering with toys and gadgets that kindled his interest in how things work. His admiration for science and technology, specifically in the fields of robotics, 3D printing, and smart systems, grew into a passion that he is working towards, nurturing it into a career. He completed his higher studies at Purdue University, USA and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China and is working towards obtaining a masters degree in robotics. Adith has experience working on robots ranging from simple obstacle—avoiding robots built at home to complex humanoid robots such as the Darwin-OP in Purdue University's research lab. He has coauthored a research paper and has two patents on his name. He enjoys traveling and grabs every opportunity he can to explore the different parts of the world. He is also an international chess player.

Summary


That was super cool, wasn't it? The synergy when Arduino, Processing, and touch sensors work together is enormous. We first played with the basics of Processing and understood how it communicates with Arduino. We wrote a simple Processing code that could directly control the Arduino. Then we created a simple tic-tac-toe program using the capacitive number pad as the input device, and using Processing as the processor to make the game tick. Finally, we created a complicated pattern-processing program that takes input from the capacitive touch pad, which we realized is really powerful. You have learnt a lot from this chapter and I hope this serves you well in your coding endeavors.

In the next chapter, we bid farewell to Processing and say hello to an even more powerful tool that synergizes well with Arduino, namely, Python. Additionally, in the next chapter, we will learn how to implement wireless communication in our projects by means of Bluetooth.
