Build a simple Arduino powered Traffic Light with us! This instructable is meant to walk you through almost every step, but there are a few assumptions. Read over the intro and the first step to make sure you are fully prepared! This is the breadboard version, a more realistic traffic light will be generated soon. […]

This time on the show we continue coverage of Toorcamp 2012 – the American Hacker Camp. This time Darren speaks with Rob Eby about packet radio as an extension of the Internet. Plus what could be better than flexible individually addressable RGB LED strips? %1 controlled by Arduino! All that and more!

everything is boring without LEDs, so lets make a city out of it! Basic Idea: so we build a City mode out of cardboard, then illuminate it with a LOT of RGB LEDs and let the temperature of color change according to room temperature using LM35 Temperature sensor. Supplies 1. WS2812b RGB LEDs (neopixels). 2.

I just happened to see some large strips of LED lighting when I was picking up some parts at Maplin which were on sale (if I remember correct they were around £12 per approx. 2m strip) however the controller/driver was still around £40, so I thought I would just build a better one myself. I

Update: I’ll add some clarifications after reading comments on various forums. It doesn’t need a 70Mhz ARM CPU, all it does is shift bits into a shift register, that’d be a total waste. There aren’t 16 CPU’s. the slices are designed to be either slave or master, just one ATMega328P chip, they’re chained together, each

The tiny 0.96 inches OLED display is the most popular among the Arduino fraternity for displaying data like room temperature, humidity, and text messages. Have you ever thought of displaying your own photo on the display! Yes, it’s possible. In this Arduino-based project, we learn to display any photo on this small display. The above

This project was inspired by a very cool kickstarter called Helios Bars. Essentially what this project does, is put an arduino, LEDs, and buttons into your bike handlebars. The LEDs can be used as turn signals, brake lights, or display ambient colors while riding. It’s fun, cheap, and a good introductory to LEDs and arduino. The
