Details
The book will have three kinds of content: explanatory sections, short examples and projects. The explanatory sections explain the hardware and software concepts behind AOA, the ADK and Arduino.
The short examples provide short but fully-functional code designed to perform exactly one function such as measure external temperature and display it on the screen of the Android device. The projects are longer, more in-depth examples of fully-functional programs with well-commented code along with the narrative.
