The 1Sheeld+ is a super - easy - to - configure shield for Arduino. It comes with a built - in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) module. This module empowers your Arduino to connect to both iOS and Android phones. With the 1Sheeld app from the App Store or Google Play, you can quickly link your iPhone or Android device. Your smartphone then turns into a functional shield. Once connected, you can use your smartphone to control the Arduino, sending data and managing pins. Or, let the Arduino take charge of your smartphone. The 1Sheeld library enables the Arduino to send emails, operate the camera, use voice recognition, and send social media notifications. The 1Sheeld+ is compatible with both 5V and 3.3V boards. Key features include: experiencing over 40 Arduino shields on your mobile with one board, working with iPhone 4S and later (iOS 9 and above) and Android 4.3 and above devices, being compatible with most Arduino boards like Uno, Mega, Due, and RedBoard, having the ability to function as various types of shields, and using a standard HM - 10 (BLE 4.0) Bluetooth module. Documents available are 1Sheeld Tutorials, a Getting Started Video, and the 1Sheeld app for both Android and iOS.
Using the 1Sheeld+ is easy. First, connect the 1Sheeld+ to your Arduino board. Make sure your Arduino board is either 5V or 3.3V as the 1Sheeld+ is compatible with both. Then, download the 1Sheeld app from the App Store if you have an iPhone (iPhone 4S or later with iOS 9 and above) or from Google Play if you have an Android device (Android 4.3 and above). Open the app and pair it with the 1Sheeld+ using the built - in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) module. Once paired, you can start controlling the Arduino from your smartphone or let the Arduino control your phone. For example, you can send data from your phone to the Arduino or use the Arduino to send an email from your phone. When using the 1Sheeld+, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. Keep it in a dry and cool place. If you face any issues, refer to the 1Sheeld Tutorials or the Getting Started Video. For maintenance, just keep the board clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it gently if it gets dirty.
