DFR0748 Kitty's Flower

Introduction

Kitty's Flower is a pair of Bluetooth wearable brooches. Jointly created by Art by Physicist and DFRobot, they are specially designed for wearable application scenarios, integrated power management system, RGB LED lights, accelerometer, sensors, vibration, and touch. Support Arduino and Scratch programming, and can be used as the core intelligent control unit for wearable products, interactive art installations, and new accessories. Two are matched as a pair, and various effects can be programmed by users. The factory-set functions are programmed for the above-mentioned scenario. Companion brooches match the Flower outfit (top, shorts and mask cover) with hand digital painting on fabric and 3D printed flowers on tulle.

Tutorial

Kitty Flower integrates multiple functions, we will show them one by one below, but in actual use, please upgrade Kitty Flowers Demo separately: KittyMother and KittyChild two demos to complete the pairing and connection. The two demos will automatically set the master/slave status of the motherboards, and then read the Bluetooth RSSI field strength value to determine the distance between each other. click to download Kitty's Flower Demo. Here are the other functions.

Requirements

Sample Code for Vibration Motor

#define VMPIN      5     //Vibration motor pin

void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
  pinMode(VMPIN, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(VMPIN, HIGH);   // turn the Motor on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(VMPIN, LOW);    // turn the Motor off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
}

Sample Code for Touch

#define TOUCHPIN   6

void setup() {
  // initialize serial communication at 9600 bits per second:
  Serial.begin(115200);
  // make the pushbutton's pin an input:
  pinMode(TOUCHPIN, INPUT);
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {
  // read the input pin:
  int touchState = digitalRead(TOUCHPIN);
  // print out the state of the button:
  Serial.println(touchState);
  delay(10);        // delay in between reads for stability
}

Open the serial port, touch the stamen, the serial port will output high level; otherwise, it outputs low level
