Warning: Do not turn the Servo by hand.  Doing so can damage the mechanisms inside the Servo.

1. Pick up each component and examine it closely
2. Refer to the video and identify each of the following components:
   • 1 Computer (with Arduino program installed, active Gmail account, and internet access)
   • 1 USB A to USB type B Cable
   • 1 Android Device (Phone or Tablet)
   • 1 Arduino Uno
   • 1 HC-05 Bluetooth Module
   • 1 Continuous Servo

   • 1 Breadboard
   • 2 Red wires
   • 2 Black wires
   • 2 White wires
   • 4 Male to Female Jumper wires (any color)

At the Thinkabit Lab, we rename the Bluetooth modules so that groups can easily find their specific device and connect to it easily.  Please contact ThinkabitLabTeam@qualcomm.com for support with renaming Bluetooth devices.

1. Don’t have a Gmail account?

• Go to gmail.com and sign up! You’ll need this account to access App Inventor. The apps created will be stored under that email address.

2. Don’t have an Android device, rather I have an Apple (iOS-based) device, can I use it with App Inventor?

• No, App Inventor is currently only compatible with Android-based devices. Although many apps are available on both iOS and Android, the coding process for these 2 platforms is quite different.

3. Missing any of the required materials?
   • You will not be able to complete this activity without the required materials. Please acquire all materials before beginning this activity.
      
4. Don’t have jumper wires, rather, only have red, black and white wires from Thinkabit Lab starter kit?

• Purchase jumper wires from Amazon, Sparkfun, or another retailer
• Use the red, black, and white wires with the breadboard to make your connections (look through the troubleshooting section for tips on making these connections with the Bluetooth module).
