Android send command to Arduino in USB Host mode

This example show how to send command from Android to Arduino Esplora board, in USB Host Mode, to control the LED and Screen of Arduino Esplora. When user toggle the LED by clicking on the button, or change the screen color by slideing the bars, the commands will be add in a command queue, and then send to Arduino in background.

hi,
thanks for this post :)

Can i do this by using Arduino UNO or Leonardo ??

Hello Ahmed Tarek,

Yes, you can.

Here is a example of Send data from Android to Arduino Uno, in USB Host Mode.
