Kerimil has made a new video on how to interface arduino boards with Android devices using MIT app inventor and Bluetooth. This time it focuses on using the phone as a GSM shield. “I used texting functionality which let’s you use GSM on the phone to send and receive text messages. So if you ever wanted to have a GSM shield for your Arduino no you can (if you have a Bluetooth module and a mobile but other than that it’s free). Oh and don’t forget this presents only how to use texting function – app inventor let’s you access all kinds of hardware on the phone – gyros, accelerometers, GPS, Wifi, text to speech and speech to text functionality and more.”
Details can be found on kerimil’s Instructable’s post.
