What is WiFi® Arduino®?
and WiFi® Arduino® is an Arduino® board equipped with the ability to connect to wireless networks. There are several Arduino® varieties, but none of them is equipped with WiFi®. For this reason, all WiFi® Arduino® devices are created by combining one of the standard WiFi® shields. This is particularly useful for robotics or home electronics applications where more users might want to interact with the same device. For example, a piece of a robotic work of art can allow everyone to instruct it to move to a different position using a WiFi® notebook. Alternately, a game based on this platform could allow several people to play at the same time. Site can only be accessible in a local network or, if the network is online, can be available to the entire Internet. The site broadcast from the microcontroller could be used to display information about the device environment such as temperature, light level or noise level. The page could also be used for WIFI® Arduino® remote control or provide informationACE to be on a digital display board.
WiFi® can transmit data much faster than any other interface that is currently available for small electronic devices. One examples are video cars for remote control. The motherboard is connected to the WiFi® shield, the board is connected directly to the remote control controls and a webcam is connected to the board. The webcam is usually unnecessary for any device of this type because it does not have enough power to analyze or sufficient storage capacity for IT again. In this case, the data is not stored or analyzed, but instead is transmitted directly via WiFi® to a computer where the user can watch live video and control a car.
Despite these benefits, the WiFi® Arduino® devices are often not produced. WiFi® is more expensive and consumes more energy than other alternatives. Mobile devices are generallyPowered by battery, which means that further energy drainage is a significant problem. Most immobile devices that often use computer interfaces can be controlled using USB cables or network cables. For most applications, it is cheaper and equally efficient to use USB, Xbee® or serial interface.
