Commands you can send via UART

------------------------------

Just type these commands the Bluefruit UART App for iOS (or other UART app):

* `clear` - clear display

* `red` - draw red box

* `green` - draw green box

* `yellow` - draw yellow box

* `countdown` - draw 3, 2, 1

Components

----------

* [Bi-Color 8x8 Matrix](https://www.adafruit.com/products/902) and [Getting Started and Arduino library](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-led-backpack/bi-color-8x8-matrix) available from Adafruit.

* [Bluefruit LE - Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 4.0) - nRF8001 Breakout - v1.0](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1697) and [Getting Started and Arduino library](https://learn.adafruit.com/getting-started-with-the-nrf8001-bluefruit-le-breakout) available from Adafruit.

* Arduino Uno

* [Bluefruit UART app for iOS](https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=830125974&mt=8) to send text commands via Bluetooth.

Wiring and Setup

----------------

* Wire up components and install Adafruit Arduino libraries as described in the two product tutorials above.
