Tutorial: How to Use Arduino Lilypad Compatible
The Arduino Lilypad compatible with ATmega328p microcontroller is ideal for interactive fashion and textile projects. With reduced power consumption, it is perfect for beginners who want to start working on smart clothes or other portable projects.
What you need
- Arduino Lilypad compatible
- micro-B USB cable
- resistor pack
- sensor (e.g., temperature)
- 5V power supply
Steps
- Connect the Arduino Lilypad to the computer via USB cable.
- Install the necessary library for the device in Arduino IDE, checking the datasheet for a specific library.
- Load an example sketch from File > Examples > [nome della libreria].
- Verify that the integrated LED turns on and off according to the loaded code.
- Connect an appropriate sensor (e.g., thermistor) to the Lilypad pins, checking the datasheet for specific pins.
- Modify the example sketch to read data from the sensor and display it on Serial Monitor.
- Test the connection between the sensor and the Lilypad ensuring that values are correctly transmitted.
Example code
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
int value = analogRead(A0); // Legge dal pin A0
Serial.println(value);
}
Mini project
Create an intelligent garment that changes color based on body temperature. Use RGB LEDs and a temperature sensor connected to the Lilypad.
Common mistakes
- Do not upload the sketch correctly
- Connect the sensor with reversed polarity
- Use a voltage higher than what the device supports
- Ignore the verification on the datasheet for specific pins
Recommended accessories
- 10k ohm variable resistors
- RGB LEDs
- DHT11 temperature sensor
- 5V rechargeable portable battery
