Getting into the real world using Breakout

Breakout is a software application used as an electronics prototyping tool to make web-based control and monitor panels. Electronic circuits, sensors, motors, LEDs, and other electrical and electromechanical devices can be controlled and monitored using this JavaScript-based tool. In a nutshell, Breakout is a virtual server that allows the Arduino to communicate with a web page, allowing the physical and virtual worlds to interact.

Getting into the real world using Breakout

Pre-lab exercise

The objective to perform the pre-lab exercise is to have the Arduino communicate with a Breakout server.

The following are the steps to connect Arduino to Breakout server:
