This tutorial will guide you with how to make whole setup to control your Arduino Board with iArduino application.For understanding, we will use Led and we will switch it On and Off  with the help of iArduino app.From this you will get the idea about how to setup iArduino to control your Arduino board Wirelessly. Whole setup will take 4-5 min.
So let's get started........



iArduino App Information:

iArduino Application is developed for controlling your loving Arduino Board Wirelessly. Since iArduino App gives you an ability to control output on the confined Arduino Pin, you can implement them for controlling anything you want according to your need. Some PWM capable pins are also provided with slider so that you can control anything which requires PWM.It is having a message window in it which provide you with the signal being sent by iArduinoHD app and receives the feedback message from Arduino Board .


iArduino App requires extra minimal hardware to work, without that it won't do anything. Full details on how to make setup are given on the website.If you require any kind of help then you can mail me at : dhirajjadhao@gmail.com

It can be downloaded from the App Store Just follow the link below:

Here is the list of items Required:

1. Arduino Uno Board
2. Arduino Ethernet Shield
3. Any WiFi Router( in my case i am using i-Ball Router)
4. 8 Blue or any coloured Led's
5. Ethernet Cable 
6. Finally an iPhone, iPad or iPod(Touch) with iArduino App Installed on it. If not Downloaded then follow the link:    https://www.itunes.apple.com/us/app/iarduino/id578582005?ls=1&mt=8

This is very cool. Would it be difficult to use an Electric Imp shield and electric imp to do away with the ethernet completely and make it entirely wireless?

hello paulbacca,
i can elaborate the stuff, but i didn't understand what do you mean by electric imp shield.
Paulbacca says: Dec 7, 2012. 8:36 AM
Electric Imp is new innovation that is essentially a wireless card in the form factor of an SD card. The Electric Imp Shield will allow you to connect and Electric Imp card to an arduino. See for yourself: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11401

Check out the Electric Imp website:http://electricimp.com/
Hope this clears things up.

very cool! do you have any big plans for this?
DjTronix (author) says: Dec 3, 2012. 7:19 PM
Yes. Lots of stuffs will be on instructable soon.
We can implement iArduino to control anything wirelessly. My next instructable will be 1. Controlling AC bulb wirelessly using iArduino and Self made relay board. 2. Controlling a Car using iArduino and self made motor controller.
