==Turtle Art==
==Turtle Blocks (Turtle Art) with Arduino Plugin==


The code needed is located at (Thnks to Sayamindu Dasgupta)
[[File:turtleart-arduino-palette.png|800px]]


*http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/turtleart/repos/arduino-support
There are several efforts to develop Turtle Art support for Arduino.
This implementation uses the same [http://www.firmata.org firmata] protocol that the arduino-squeak connection uses.


TODO: Link to an XO bundle.

* [http://tonyforster.blogspot.com/2012/01/arduino-and-xo-laptop.html The Freetronics Leostick]


This uses the same [http://www.firmata.org firmata] protocol that the arduino-squeak connection uses.


===Some use examples and Screenshots===
The Arduino functionality was corrected from previous versions:
* Analog and digital reading now works correctly
* Auto detection of ttyUSBx port for FTDI device (Arduino board uses this for USB)


*[http://people.sugarlabs.org/sayamindu/ta_arduino.png]
It requires the Firmata protocol to be uploaded to the Arduino board.
*[http://people.sugarlabs.org/rafael/Arduino-turtle1.png]
Use the latest Firmata version (2.1 as of now) downloaded from the Firmata page (firmata.org)
*[http://people.sugarlabs.org/rafael/Draw-leds.png]
The Firmata version included with the Arduino IDE has some inconsistencies.
 
This version has english and spanish translations.
