The Raspberry Pi ATmega32u4 Arduino Integration Shield combines Pi and Arduino strengths. Pi handles vision, wireless, imaging, and complex algorithms; Arduino delivers fast motor control/obstacle avoidance (no OS). The shield has Xbee sockets, DS1307 RTC, bidirectional logic converter, and is compatible with many sensors/shields. Use Python to control sensors and program Arduino via Pi; get FAQs on DFRobot Forum.

1. Example Code for Raspberry Pi-Relay Control

This chapter will control the relay module with Python via the GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi with the help of the Meet Arduino Shield.

2. Program the Arduino shield using Raspberry Pi B

In this part, we will share how to program your Arduino using Pi. The steps is quite simple what you need is just installing the Arduino on your Pi and run the remote desktop to test it.

Pinout

Fig1: Pi Meet Arduino Pinout

The ID-I2C is an EEPROM interface, which is dedicated to connect to external EEPROM, it will test automatically EEPROM devices attached to it when it starts, is used for configuring GPIO and Linux drivers. In theory, it can be used as an ordinary I2C.
