Bluetooth - Serial Port Redirection Using Matlab/simulink

Bluetooth-based Android Controller for Arduino ,

REQUIREMENTS

 *  Breadboard wiring and electronics skills.
 *  Arduno Uno.
 *  Laptop include Bluetooth or USB Bluetooth adapter  .
 *  Matlab program on PC.
 *  Android Bluetooth terminal like:
      - TerminalBT :   https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=main.terminalBT

Open MATLAB program and run the simulink.
- Make a new model
- select " Instrument Control Toolbox "  from Library  / Or search for "Serial"
- drag and drop the blocks: serial send and serial receive , like in the photo.
- Double click on the block to configure the source block parameters and select ports for Arduino and Bluetooth
- Save it

This is a small code to test the example:_

int ledPin=13;
int value;

void setup ()

{

Serial.begin(9600);

pinMode(ledPin,OUTPUT); }

void loop ()

{ value = Serial.read(); if (value == '1') {digitalWrite(ledPin,HIGH);}

else if (value == '0') {digitalWrite(ledPin,LOW);}

}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you send number " 1 " from your serial terminal , the Pin 13 will be 1 (5V) so the LED will turns ON.
and when you send number " 0 " , the Pin 13 will be 0 (0V) so the LED will turns OFF.

Now
Close all programs and disconnect the Arduino (to avoid some problems).

* Re connect the Arduino with PC and run MATLAB / simulink.

* Open the saved simulink file and press the play button.

Run Terminal App on a smart phone and connect it with PC Bluetooth.

send "1" and "0" to make sure that the connection works well
