What is Phyduino?

The content on this page was translated automatically.

Phyduino stands for physics with the Arduino. The focus is on the digital recording of measured values with the Arduino. Physical values are recorded using inexpensive sensors, transferred to an Arduino and then output via a notebook.

Features of Phyduino

  • Inexpensive and freely accessible components
  • short familiarization time thanks to detailed and well-practiced instructions
  • Possibilities for simple modification by users

Overview

Sensors

With the experiments presented, measured values can be recorded with a variety of sensors. For example, locations and velocities can be recorded with an ultrasonic sensor, temperature curves with a temperature sensor or light intensities with a photodiode.

Data export

The measurement data is output in the Arduino software during the measurement on the connected notebook. They can then be exported to Excel, for example, and evaluated there. Alternatively, the Phyduino app can be used on Android systems, which can be downloaded from the Playstore.

Further development

Our aim is to develop and make available further suggestions for experiments, instructions and aids. Among other things, we are currently working on


  • the control of the measurement and the output of the measured values via smartphone,
  • further experiment proposals (pressure sensor, acceleration sensor)
  • simplified setups of the existing experiment proposals.
