Serial Communication Between Android and Arduino Through Laptop Bluetooth

About:

This instructable is about serial communication between android and arduino through laptop built-in Bluetooth. i do not have separate Bluetooth module. so i have decided to use my laptop built-in Bluetooth for serial communication.

How it works:

1.first, the python file receives the command from the android application through Bluetooth

2.next the python file send the received command to arduino through cable.

3.finally,the command(1 or 0 or 2) turn on the pin-13. and confirmation is send back to android application.

commands:

1 - turn on pin-13

0 - turn off pin-13

2 - close socket

python-2.7

pyserial - for arduino serial communication

pybluez - for bluetooth serial port communication

Links:

pyserial - https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial

pybluez - https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyBluez

step1: upload the blink.ino file to your arduino uno board
