Turn your old Android smartphone into an Arduino screen with the RemoteXY app
Reading Time: 2 minutesEach component you add to your Arduino project increases its complexity and the opportunity for mistakes. But most projects require some “auxiliary” hardware — components that you use to interact with the Arduino or to help it do the job you’re asking of it. Buttons and displays are great examples. But as…
