    Study Notes

    Springless Suspension

    • Springless suspension is a type of vehicle suspension system.

    MIT App Inventor

    • MIT App Inventor is a visual programming environment.
    • It allows creation of Android applications using a drag-and-drop interface.
    • Developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
    • Aims to democratize app development by lowering barriers for students, educators, and prospective developers.

    Why MIT App Inventor?

    • No coding experience is needed.
    • Visual Programming: Uses visual blocks to represent programming concepts, making it easy to learn and understand
    • Instant Gratification: Allows immediate results as one designs and tests apps in real-time while connected to an Android device.
    • Languages used in MIT App inventor: The most popular languages include JAVA (76.3%), HTML(12.1%), JAVASCRIPT (6.4%), PYTHON(2.7%), SCHEME(1.3%) and CSS (1.2%).

    Designing App Interface

    • The app interface is designed by dragging components from the palette to the specified viewer.
    • Using the designer button, allows navigating to the designer tab.
    • Components can be selected in the components list, and their properties changed (e.g., color, size, and behavior).

    Arduino

    • Arduino is an open-source, microcontroller-based platform.
    • Popular as an educational tool in many universities globally.
    • Enables the introduction of automation control concepts to students.
    • Uses Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) as its software.

    Arduino IDE

    • This software consists of a text editor for code writing, message console, message area, toolbar for common functions, and various menus.
    • The IDE allows communication and uploading programs to the hardware.

    Arduino IDE Code for NodeMCU

    • Code written in Arduino IDE can be used to control NodeMCU.

    Setting WiFi Name & Password

    • Code examples demonstrating how to set WiFi credentials.

    NodeMCU SPI Pinout

    • NODEMCU is a System on a Chip (SoC) designed for open-source IoT platforms.
    • Uses ESP8266 WiFi.
    • Enables WiFi connectivity for devices.

    Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)

    • Converts analog signals to digital form.
    • ESP8266 has an inbuilt 10-bit ADC with a single channel.
    • Input voltage range from 0-1.0V.
    • Used for receiving analog information from external sensors.

    NodeMCU PWM Pins

    • Pins used to generate pulse width modulated signals.
    • PWM is a method for controlling the width of a pulse while maintaining a constant frequency.
    • Used in various situations like motor speed control and light dimming.
    • Frequency adjustable up to 1KHz.

    H-bridge

    • An electronic circuit that controls the direction of current flow through a motor.

    Basic principle

    • Illustrates principles of motor control using magnetic fields.

    Forward-Clockwise, Backward-Anticlockwise, Power Braking
