Robust Arduino Serial is a simple and robust serial communication protocol. It was designed to make two Arduinos communicate, but can also be useful when you want a computer (e.g. a Raspberry Pi) to communicate with an Arduino.

This repository is part of the Robust Arduino Serial project, main repository: https://github.com/araffin/arduino-robust-serial

Please read the Medium Article to have an overview of this protocol.

Implementations are available in various programming languages:

• Arduino
• Python
• C
• Rust

Dependency (libserial):

sudo apt-get install libserial-dev

To build the two examples, run the build.sh inside the examples/ directory, the binaries will be located in the bin/ folder.

Read write in a file

./file_read_write.x

If you want to use command_parser and serial_reader with a real Arduino, you need to flash it with this code: Arduino Source Code

Run the command parser to send order to the Arduino (optional: you can run it using rlwrap):

./command_parser.x

Idem for listening to the serial port (for now during 30 seconds, it can be changed in the serial_reader.h)

./serial_reader.x
