Then, the book dives into more complex projects, such as building a weather measurement station, making a simple alarm system, and controlling a mobile robot wirelessly via LabVIEW. Going through the projects of this book will allow you to automate your Arduino projects without writing a single line of code, therefore creating complex projects in little time. What You Will Learn Install LabVIEW and set it up to interface with Arduino Automate your Arduino projects with LabVIEW via a USB cable or XBee Control a servo motor and a smart power switch from LabVIEW Make a simple weather measurement station using Arduino and LabVIEW Build a simple wireless alarm system Manoeuvre an Arduino-based robot wirelessly via LabVIEW Collect feedback from the robot sensors using Arduino and LabVIEW
