OK, so I finally decided to get my hands on the Arduino platform and see what all the buzz is really about. And I must say, Im impressed. This is by far the most developer friendly development platform Ive ever seen. Its main advantages Its simple. The hardware is very simple and uses standard, commonly available components. The software IDE is basic but functional editor window, status window, integrated serial terminal. Thats it. Its reasonably powerful. The Arduino diecimilla that I used is based on the ATMega. MHz. Its based on open source hardware and software If you omit the trademark controversy about the Arduino trademark. The board design is public. This has lead to the creation of several variants and clones Freeduino which contributed to the popularity of the platform. Power, firmware upload and serial communications through a single USB cable. Its expandable. The concept of shields that can be stacked on top of the main Arduino board is genius As a matter of fact, making a small prototyping shield was the first thing I did for this platform. So, a while ago I came across this great optical mouse hack by Sprite. I decided it would be great to do as my first Arduino project beyond the Blinky LED example, that is. First step, dissection of a wireless mouse from a cheap Typhoon wireless mouse keyboard combo. Unscrew it. Look for screws under the pads and stickers on the bottom. My model came with two PCBs which are coupled using a 1. The unusual looking chip in the middle is an ADNS 2. This chip holds a 1. DSP which computes movements from the optical flow of the captured images Underneath the second PCB is the optical bloc with lens and LED collimator Better view of the optics. It was manufactured by Agilent technologies or its spinoff Avago technologies AgilentAvago provides the optical block, motion sensor and LED assembly of most optical mice. Heres how everything stacks up OK, so going this far was not really necessary, I just like to see how things are made and to take macro shots of it Going back to the ADNS 2. Arduino, you need to make the following connections ADNS 2. Arduino pin. 1 SCLKDigital 2. SDIODigital 3. 15 PDDigital 4. VDD5. V1. 2 GNDGNDAll the other pins should have the required circuitry already on board, so they need not be touched. In my case however I had to wire the LED, too, since it was not directly wired to VCC but switched on by the controller. This is because it was a wireless mouse build with a chip intended for a corded design, so they had to diverge a bit from the reference design. I was lucky, the sensor board had a female header which I could use to wire everything, so I did not have to solder anything. But you probably will. Ignore the prototype board on top of the Arduino, you can wire everything directly to the Arduino headers. You can download the Arduino script and the PC program below. The program is in java and requires the RXTX library to be installed. You need to get the RXTX 2. OUT Suns Comm. API namespace gnu. No, as of 2. 00. 8 java still does not natively support the serial port. It should work with Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, but I only tested it under Windows. Addendum RXTX seems to have been discontinued and the website is now a blank page. I suggest using Pure. Java. Comm instead, it works great and does not require to be installed directly in the JRE. The project may need to be modified a bit to adapt it to this library. Once RXTX has been installed you can run the jar file simply by double clicking on it or in the command line like this java jar mousecam. The window will show up. Simply select the serial port your Arduino board is connected to and click Connect. The sensor data will be drawn on screen in real time. You can increase or lower the number of lines to read from the sensor in each run. The frame dump routines are a bit slow so if you dump a full frame youll get only about 5 fps. If youre moving the mouse at the same time, there will be severe shearing artifacts and the scan will not look pretty. In this case, reduce the capture window to 2 or 3 lines. If you move the mouse while the application runs you can scan the surface below it. As you can see the quality is unmatched. You need to keep the mouse orientation exactly the same while scanning since there is no way to detect rotations, and this distorts the capture even more. Heres how a white sheet of paper, the fabric from my pants and the small print on a 2. Alright, what else can we do with this very nice sensor Looking at the datasheet something struck my eye the sensor is sensitive in a wide range of wavelenghts, from ultraviolet to infrared. So why not replace the standard red LED by an RGB LED I skip all the gory details, heres the not so impressive result I was attempting to scan a detail of a 2. Ive had several issues with the sensor when switching between diferent colors. The sensor would be nearly saturated or very dark on the border of the frames. I solved the problem by adding a 1. Another issue is that the sensor seems to use some kind of automatic aperture control, which makes it impossible to balance the colors. Below is what the same detail looks like with a real camera. We can kinda recognize the blue lines If you wish to reproduce this amazing result who wouldnt, you need to do the following Remove the red LED and replace it by the RGB LED. Connect the LED cathode to pin 1. ADNS 2. 05. 1 the LED needs to be common cathode. Connect the RED anode to Digital pin 5 on the Arduino. Connect the GREEN anode to Digital pin 6 on the Arduino. Connect the BLUE anode to Digital pin 7 on the Arduino. Load this script on the Arduino. Run this horribly hacked version of the java program above to support colors.
