Hi guys!
I have made a wireless arduino system using two setups:
- Master: An arduino uno + HM-13 bt module which samples some sensor data and sends some commands to reciever.
- Reciever: An arduino pro mini + HM-13 bt module which recieves some input.
This works when both arduinos is running code from arduino IDE. However, i want to build a matlab App to control the Master arduino and i have little to no idea how to get matlab to use the HM-13 connected to the Master (Uno), as the sender (So that i get HM-13 to HM-13 communication).
Although i am not new to matlab, i am unexperiences in different types of communication interfaces available.
I have read the documentation for the the bluetooth object available in matlab, however i find it someway hard tu understand all the technoicalities. To my understanding it is meant to connect FROM a already installed bluetooth device such as dongle on built-in chip TO a mudule such as the HM-13. Is this true or can i configure matlab to use the HM-13?
The matlab documentation for arduino states that you can create custom libraries; is it nessesary to convert, for example, SoftwareSerial.h library from arduino to matlab? And if so, can i then just use the same commands in matlab as i did in the arduino IDE?
Although HM-13 to HM-13 is preferred, would it, on the other hand, be possible/easier to just connect a bluetooth dongle to my PC and create a dongle TO HM-13 (Reciever) connection and just use the arduino uno as the sampling device?
If more information is nessesary, this will gladly be provided! Any help or pointers are very much appreciated!
Best regards Alex
