Introduction: Arduino Flappy Bird Game Using TFT LCD by Push Button Tutorial

By Mybotic

Description:

The 3.5 "display module for easy adaptability and flexibility of library had long been a reliable basis for tender color.16-bit color TFT screen and 3.5 "in size. It works as a touch screen to incorporate a capacitive sensor, which allows us to control it by touching with the finger directly on it and has a resolution of 480 × 320 pixels, relatively high for its size. Uses the ILI9481 driver.

Step 1: Project Planning

For this tutorial, we just using a simple hardware where there is no need to use breadboard and any other components. No need of wiring.

You just need to have:

  1. 3.5" Arduino TFT LCD Touchscreen Module
  2. USB cable type A male to B male
  3. Arduino Mega 2560
  4. Push Button

**Please download the UFTF

Step 2: Pin Connection

Connect your arduino with the 3.5" Arduino TFT LCD Touchscreen Module and two (2) buttons which are Start Button and Reset Button. Make sure that all pins are fit into its port.

Step 3: Insert Coding

  1. Download the test code and open it by using Arduino software or IDE.
  2. Make sure that you have choose the right board and the corresponding port. (In this tutorial, Arduino Mega 2560 is used)
  3. Then, upload the test code into your Arduino Mega 2560.

**For in case, if your display is mirrored, you may follow the instruction below:

Documents>Arduino>Libraries>UFTF>tft_drivers>ili9481(for 3.5'' TFT LCD)>edit initlcd.h and change

LCD_Write_COM(0x3A);

LCD_Write_DATA(0x55);
