TUTORIAL ARDUINO USB HOST SHIELD+Wii BLUETOOTH

Setting up the Arduino USB Host Shield

The Arduino USB Host Shield is a device that allows users to connect USB devices to their Arduino board. This tutorial will show you how to set up the Arduino USB Host Shield and use it to connect a Wii Bluetooth controller.

Step 1: Connect the USB Host Shield

The first step is to connect the USB Host Shield to the Arduino board. To do this, simply plug the shield into the Arduino board. Make sure that the pins on the shield line up with the pins on the board.

Step 2: Download the Program

Next, you will need to download the program that will allow the Arduino to communicate with the Wii Bluetooth controller. To do this, go to the Arduino website and search for USB Host Shield. You should be able to find the program that you need. Download the program and save it to your computer.

Step 3: Upload the Program

Once you have downloaded the program, you will need to upload it to the Arduino board. To do this, connect the board to your computer using a USB cable. Then, open the Arduino IDE and select Upload from the menu. Select the program that you downloaded and click Upload.

Step 4: Connect the Wii Bluetooth Controller

Once the program has been uploaded, you can now connect the Wii Bluetooth controller to the Arduino board. To do this, press and hold the 1 and 2 buttons on the controller simultaneously. The controller should begin to blink, indicating that it is connected.

Step 5: Test the Connection

Once the controller is connected, you can now test the connection. To do this, open the Arduino IDE and select Serial Monitor from the menu. You should see a message indicating that the controller is connected. You can also use the serial monitor to view the data that is being sent from the controller.

Step 6: Enable Additional Features

Finally, you can enable additional features on the controller by modifying the program. For example, you can enable the gyroscope by adding a 1 to the code. You can also enable the analog controller by adding a 1 to the code.

In this tutorial, we have shown you how to set up the Arduino USB Host Shield and use it to connect a Wii Bluetooth controller. We have also shown you how to enable additional features on the controller by modifying the program. We hope that this tutorial has been helpful and that you are now able to use the Arduino USB Host Shield to control your Wii Bluetooth controller.
