Arduino MEGA Google ADK

( SS )
SG$123.50


Description

Seeeduino ADK Main Board is based on Android Open Accessory Development Kit(ADK). Compared to the Google's ADK Reference design, Seeeduino ADK has many added features like support of both 5V and 3.3V I/O (logic with a switch), smaller form-factor, better placement of reset button, pads for more pin-headers and sparkling RED PCB with Golden finish. Using ADK Main Board build your own mobile accessories. Open Source Android development platform and Seeeduino ADK Main Board is an ideal solution for mobile based Home Automation.

Seeeduino ADK Main Board supports Android devices v1.5 using MicroBridge and v2.3.4 and above with Google Open Accessories API (ADK).

Seeeduino ADK Main Board works like Arduino Mega 2560 with inbuilt USB Host Shield. Hence, this Main Board can be connected to any USB devices. Users have to write their own drivers for using this feature.
 
 

What is Android Open Accessory Development Kit?
The Android 3.1 platform (also backported to Android 2.3.4) introduces Android Open Accessory support, which allows external USB hardware (an Android USB accessory) to interact with an Android-powered device in a special "accessory" mode. When an Android-powered powered device is in accessory mode, the connected accessory acts as the USB host (powers the bus and enumerates devices) and the Android-powered device acts as the device.

Android USB accessories are specifically designed to attach to Android-powered devices and adhere to a simple protocol (Android accessory protocol) that allows them to detect Android-powered devices that support accessory mode. Accessories must also provide 500mA at 5V for charging power. Many previously released Android-powered devices are only capable of acting as a USB device and cannot initiate connections with external USB devices. Android Open Accessory support overcomes this limitation and allows you to build accessories that can interact with an assortment of Android-powered devices by allowing the accessory to initiate the connection.

Application Ideas
  • Develop accessories for Android (v2.3.4 and above) devices using ADK.
  • For Android devices not supporting ADK, use MicroBridge to develop accessories.
  • Make Android devices interact with the physical world.
  • As an Arduino compatible platform with 256K flash.
  • On board USB host makes it easy to interact with USB devices like pen drivers, keyboard, mouse, Bluetooth dongles.

 

 

Hardware Installation

The following image illustrates an application example of Seeeduino ADK Main Board with an Android Mobile. It runs the demo application based on MicroBridge provided illustrated this page. All basic electronic components are taken from Arduino Sidekick Basic Kit.

  • Connect Seeeduino ADK Main Board to 2.8'' TFT Touch Shield
  • Format SD card in FAT mode
  • Set the operating voltage slide switch to 3.3V
