MCP

# MCP 🚀    **A concise hub for learning and exploring the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — curated examples, servers, and walkthroughs for students, researchers, and engineers, (Arduino / ROS / Vision / Home Assistant).** ## 🔎 Overview MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a lightweight, practical approach to expose model-driven context and commands to devices and systems — from Arduino and Home Assistant to ROS-based robots and computer-vision pipelines. This repository complements the live demo site (served from `index`) and points visitors to the best starting resources, reference servers, example implementations, and video walkthroughs so they can quickly learn and experiment with MCP-based integrations. **Live demo / landing page:** https://mechatronics2026.github.io/MCP/ ## 🎯 Who this is for - 👨‍🎓 Mechatronics students and lab instructors who want hands-on MCP demos. - 🤖 Robotics and automation engineers exploring model-driven orchestration. - 💻 Developers building integrations between LLMs/agents and hardware (edge devices, ROS, vision systems). ## 🔎 What to look for here This repo acts as a start index: the landing page (`index`) shows the concept and demos; this README points to deeper resources — where to get reference servers, example projects you can clone, and curated video guides to watch next. ## 📚 Core reference & official servers - **Model Context Protocol — reference servers** https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers Primary collection of MCP server implementations and canonical examples. If you want official/reference server code, start here. ## 🧩 Example servers & platform integrations These repositories are practical examples you can clone and inspect to see MCP used in real systems: - 🔌 **Home Assistant integration** https://github.com/tevonsb/homeassistant-mcp Example that connects MCP endpoints with Home Assistant automations and event flows. - 🧮 **MATLAB tools** https://github.com/neuromechanist/matlab-mcp-tools Tools to send/receive MCP messages from MATLAB workflows — useful for data analysis and control prototyping. - 🖥️ **OpenCV / Vision pipeline** https://github.com/GongRzhe/opencv-mcp-server Exposes computer-vision processing via MCP (object detection, tracking outputs over MCP). - 🤝 **ROS MCP server** https://github.com/robotmcp/ros-mcp-server Bridge between ROS topics/services and MCP for laboratory robotics and research stacks. - 🏭 **Universal Robots adapter** https://github.com/nonead/Nonead-Universal-Robots-MCP Shows how to adapt MCP to industrial robot controllers (UR series) for orchestration demos. - 🔋 **Arduino minimal MCP server** https://github.com/amahpour/arduino-mcp-server-simple Small-footprint example to turn a microcontroller into an MCP endpoint for classroom experiments. - 🔎 **More:** https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/guide-model-context-protocol-mcp-unlocking-ais-rick-hightower-mwq1c By the end of this article in less than 1 hour, you will have created three versions of a ChatBot and a custom MCP Server. ## 🎬 Curated video tutorials & demos Watch these to see MCP in action. - https://youtu.be/EIUcqLYi224 — Quick demo / visual intro. - https://youtu.be/zqyoGl7oWwk — Step-by-step setup and workflow example. - https://youtu.be/RDJBfYPvGso — **Important explanation — Arabic**. - https://youtu.be/7ut4eqTxwHA — Applied integration demo. - https://youtu.be/hYBdPTzzrBg — Short technical deep-dive. - https://youtu.be/l3QKhEWfN2A — Experimental/example use-case. - https://youtu.be/SrHzC5InJDA — Workshop / practical recording. - https://youtu.be/9StFx4lnvmc — Supplementary tutorial. - https://youtu.be/dr1OeBkOAFs — Additional walkthrough. ## 🤝 Contribute & stay updated This repo is a living resource.
