Hi all!!
Today i show how is possible to connect iPhone to Arduino without any Wifi or Ethernet shields!

Here the app that controls 4 leds (green yellow, red and orange), a DC motor with a fan, a piezo speacker and the room temperature with LM32 sensor!

What you need?
– Arduino with anything you want
– iPhone / iPad / iPod
– A website to host php pages
– An internet connection on pc (Win + Mac)

What you need to know?
– A little bit of electronics
– C language
– C# language
– PHP language
– Objective-C language

Good.
In PHP make a stupid page that get in $_REQUEST a command and store it to a file on server!
Three lines of code…

In C# make a web listener that call php page and checks the output. If any condition are verified, send to COM9 the value that you want to get from arduino.

In C from Arduino, in the Loop() read Serial value. If the value respond to your configuration, call LigthUpLed(green) for example!

In Objective-C make an iPhone App with a stupid layout that call in GET your PHP page and send a command!

To make everithink work, run your C# listener app on Windows and from your iPhone send get call to web server!

Now, your nerd app will control arduino!!!

In this example app that i made, i control HIGH or LOW for Four LEDs, a DC Motor, a Piezo Speacker and a Temperature Sensor.

I used resistors, 4 leds, LM32, DC Motor, TIP120, diode, wires, beer.

Hi all,
do tou like Windows Phone 7? Do you want to customize start menu adding images to your tiles???
Like this shot?

I have a solution for it!!!

I created a beta version 0.00001 page that permits you to create automatically tiles for your windows phone!!!

Here a tiny link, useful to open it from phone: http://goo.gl/g9BFS

It’s a simple web page. You can easily upload a photo, set your phone size and click generate!
Easy easy easy!

Now, after loaded an image and generated tiles, you need to center image in internet explorer, open tool bar menu and click “Pin to start” or “Aggiungi a start”, like this:

Move your created tile where you want and compose your collage!

Easy to use, cool to show!

enjoy and send me a feedback!

Può capitare di dover utilizzare diversi virtual host per eseguire i vostri script in php, ma la configurazione di apache?

Trovate il file https.conf e apritelo con un editor di testo.
Per un server locale e soprattutto per sviluppo locale, banalmente possono essere configurate alcune opzioni.

Queste sono le porte sulle quali viene cercato il servizio:

Nel mio caso, php gira sulle porte 90, 91. Di default gira su 80.

Impostate il server predefinito:

Impostate le vostre document root:

…e ci siamo quasi. Non resta che localizzare il file httpd-vhosts.conf nel quale viene configurato il vostro secondo host.

Inserire questa stringa:

Adesso riavvio veloce di Apache Server… e gli indirizzi

http://localhost:90/

e

http://localhost:91/

dovrebbero funzionare correttamente.

Nel mio caso è stato utilizzato come server Apache/PHP/mySQL, XAMPP, liberamente scaricabile da qui.
