This was my very first arduino project. Its great for beginners. Fade the color or the lights my moving your hands near it. It fades from a pretty purple blue to a firey red-orange. Its was SUPER easy to build, not to hard to write the code, and its really impresses people! I gave it […]

Texas Instruments has announced a new IC that is a part of family of ultra-low power, dual channel, resistor programmable temperature switches that enable protection and detection of system thermal events from –40 °C to 125 °C. The TMP390-Q1 offers independent overtemperature (hot) and undertemperature (cold) detection. The trip temperatures (TTRIP) and thermal hysteresis (THYST) options are programmed by
The ADXL346 is a small, thin, ultralow power, 3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. Digital output data is formatted as 16-bit twos complement and is accessible through either an SPI (3- or 4-wire) or I2C® digital interface. The ADXL346 is well suited for mobile device applications. It measures the

ASIL-Ready MLX91377 For Steering-Torque And General Automotive Sensing. Melexis announces the MLX91377 ASIL-ready Hall sensor IC suitable for use in safety-critical automotive systems such as electric power-assisted steering (EPAS). With an ambient operating temperature up to 160°C and combining high linearity with excellent thermal stability, including low offset and sensitivity drift, the MLX91377 supports accurate, dependable torque sensing
A birdhouse controller for a bird based game, why? I saw this birdhouse in the store and felt instantly inspired! Going from something big and grand with a shortage of time for the school’s deadline to something small and cute. It inspired an entire game around it! It was an interesting project, I learned how

SjoelSim! Is a mixed-reality version of the popular and historic Dutch shuffleboard game “Sjoelen”. The circuit makes use of two HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensors to measure the X and Z velocity of a playing disc. In combination with a program built in the Unity Engine, it makes for a pretty good alternative to the real
This is a EASY arduino project that you could create to impress your teacher and friends. This project is an IR sensor-controlled garage door. It uses 2 Servo motor’s to move the garage door into an opened and closed orentation. The inferred sensor (IR) is effective and long range with a range of 1-5 meters. This project
