Introduction: To Read Serial Data From Arduino in Jetson Nano Development Kit
Have ur Jetson nano Development kit booted up
As a prerequisite, u must have Arduino IDE installed on ur Jetson nano Development kit
if u don't have it installed click this guide.
Step 1: Required Files Install
In a terminal enter, the following commands
$ sudo apt-get install python
$ sudo apt-get install python-serial
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tbird20d/grabserial/master/grabserial grabserial
this should install all the required lib
Step 2: Find Port and Baud Rate (optional)
If u don't know your port value just open the serial monitor in your Arduino IDE
there u should see the port value in the top and the baud rate at the bottom of the window
Step 3: Define Port and Baud Rate
Now we need to define the Baud rate and the port for the Arduino, to do this enter
$ nano grabserial
this should open the 'grabserial' file, in this file find the line that says ( images for reference )
1 - sd.port
2 - sd.baudrate
modify these to the port number of your Arduino and the baud rate the Arduino is running at
after the modification u can save and exit the file
to do so press " ctrl + x " and press '' y '' to conform and hit "enter"
Step 4: Read the Data
just enter the command :
$ python grabserial
and u should be able to see the serial data on ur terminal
