Rails app dedicated to receive data, and transmit it to an Arduino, through USB-serial port. The Arduino board would control the world: lights, LCD, motors, etc.

First goal: Turn my light on and off.

This project is designed to work on a Raspberry Pi, with this Arduino sketch.

• Git clone this repo on your Raspberry Pi
• Bundle install
• Connect your Raspberry to your Arduino through USB-serial communication port
• Edit the initializer config/initializers/arduino.rb with your data
• rails s -b 0.0.0.0
• visit the URLs http:https://<pi_ip_address>:3000/light/on and http:https://<pi_ip_address>:3000/light/off

Be sure to only run this project on Raspberry Pi. It won't work on another computer, since dependencies would be missing.
