Description

If you want to turn your iPhone into non-typical device, such as a metal detector or a barometer, this book is for you.

 

The book will teach you how to write simple applications with techBASIC, an Apple-approved development environment. You will learn how to create a hygrometer or accelerometer, using sensors built into iOS andArduino devices. Using Bluetooth Low Energy technology and microcontroller, you can remotely control the car. Explore these and other projects and use your iPhone in an original way.

Thanks to this book:

  • you will learn the language of techBasic
  • you can access the sensors built into your device
  • you will built gyroscope, barometer or hygrometer
  • you will fullyuse the capabilities of your iPhone and iPad
