### Example 1: Using the SOLDRON Tripod PCB Holder and Clamp with an Arduino Board
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the SOLDRON Tripod PCB Holder and Clamp to hold an Arduino Uno board in place while connecting sensors and actuators to it.
```c
// Include necessary libraries
#include <Arduino.h>
// Define pin connections for sensors and actuators
const int sensorPin = A0;
const int ledPin = 13;
void setup() {
// Initialize the LED pin as an output
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
// Read sensor values
int sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);
// Perform actions based on sensor values
if (sensorValue > 500) {
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
} else {
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
}
// Wait for 50 milliseconds before taking the next reading
delay(50);
}
```
In this example, the SOLDRON Tripod PCB Holder and Clamp provides a stable platform for the Arduino Uno board, allowing for easy connection of sensors and actuators.
### Example 2: Using the SOLDRON Tripod PCB Holder and Clamp with a Raspberry Pi in a Robotics Project
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the SOLDRON Tripod PCB Holder and Clamp to hold a Raspberry Pi board in place while building a robotics project that involves camera vision and motor control.
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import cv2
# Set up GPIO pins for motor control
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
motor_pins = [17, 23, 24, 25]
for pin in motor_pins:
GPIO.setup(pin, GPIO.OUT)
# Set up camera
camera = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while True:
# Capture image from camera
ret, frame = camera.read()
# Process image using OpenCV
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
cv2.imshow('Image', gray)
# Control motors based on image processing results
# (this part is omitted for brevity)
# Exit on key press
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
# Clean up
camera.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
GPIO.cleanup()
```
In this example, the SOLDRON Tripod PCB Holder and Clamp provides a sturdy base for the Raspberry Pi board, allowing for easy connection of peripherals such as cameras and motors while building a robotics project.
