Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you want to take your Arduino sensor measurement skills to the next level¿..If you want to publish your findings in scientific publications¿. If you want to design a data collection system as part of a research team¿. If you¿re a geologist, physicists, volcanologist or any science driven person wanting to learn how to make your own electronic measurements¿..Then I wrote this book for you. I have been making electronic measurements supporting research and development for more than 30 years. In this book, you will NOT need CAD software. I assume the reader is armed with an Arduino Uno, Mega or Due, a handheld scientific calculator, and with some experience with running Arduino sketches.¿I provide simple analog circuits for interfacing sensors to the Arduino.¿I provide insight for avoiding trouble spots when making electronic measurements. ¿I provide some easy to use digital filters and explain why you should not use the ¿moving average¿. ¿I tried to provide real world considers on sampling strategies and considerations so the reader can have these discussions with other members on their research team. ¿I provide insight into my considerations when reviewing a technical research proposal. Finally, I provide complete program sketches using the Arduino to capture electronic measurement data, filter it and time tag it. Complete sketches with an SD card, SRAM, 22 bit ADC, 12 bit DAC and more. Sketches based on easy to reference instructions found on the Arduino.cc web site. I want to: Keep it simple, empower the reader to explore where they want to go and embolden the reader publish their results.
