First Solo Experience with Arduino and Choosing a Simple Circuit with IR Remote and Sensor

CHOOSING A DIRECTION For this assignment, I embarked on my inaugural solo experience with Arduino. After facing some challenges during the in-class tutorial, I felt apprehensive about dealing with the breadboard once more. Consequently, I made an early decision to work on a simpler circuit. While exploring the components of the Arduino kit, the IR

Passive Sensors Detecting Light and Motion circuit

Passive Sensors – Detecting Light and Motion

Equipment:  Arduino UNO microcomputer, PC with Arduino IDE installed, and a USB cable.                        CdS PhotoSensitive Resistor(s), 10K Ohm Resistor, and Parallax PIR Motion Sensor Passive sensors detect some physical phenomena and provide some amount of information about it that can be used for action or reaction.  If sensors are passive, they may have an

Arduino Weather Station

Arduino Weather Station Part2

So my last project was a Arduino wind chill machine. http://www.instructables.com/id/Arduino-Wind-Chill-Machine/ Naturally, this Lazy Old Geek wanted to add a weather vane (wind direction) to my weather station. Who cares, you may ask? Well, I am a Geek. Actually, wind direction has some importance. Here in the high desert, the winds are usually from the

Arduino Fixed point Vehicle Proximity Detector

Arduino Fixed-point Vehicle Proximity Detector

This is the high-tech version of hanging a tennis ball from the ceiling from a piece of string.  Of course, if you have two different types of vehicles, that tennis ball isn’t going to land in the same place on both of them.  This project can prevent hundreds of dollars in dry-wall repair and bicycle
