I’m building a halloween prop that requires a little more control than a small pushbutton box attached to some digital pins. I dont feel like building an app for serial control of the arduino. Came across a great app for the iphone that by sending UDP packets can control a wifi/ethernet connected arduino.
Question is now, whats the best/cheapest/easiest one to get? I see sparkfun has a few - was just reading over the gainspan one. That looks like it interfaces via serial to the arduino, and obviously I’d have a lot of reading to do to figure out how get a UDP packet sent to it into the board and processed right, but was wondering if there were cheaper/better/easier options out there. I’d prefer WiFi but can do ethernet if thats infinitely easier.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
The app for the iphone is called ardumote.
