Introduction This is the second in a series of tutorials examining various uses of the Arduino Yún. In this article we’ll examine how your Arduino Yún can send data that it captures from the analogue and digital inputs and a real-time clock IC to an online Google Docs spreadsheet. Doing so gives you a neat and inexpensive […]
16 node mesh, up to 1000m between nodes, sample two analog voltages per node, link any node to any other node, display data on any node with either graphics or text display, turn on relays based on data at any node, fault tolerant with data going via multiple paths. Arduino Compatible apc220 Wireless rf Module […]
The ESP8266-01 has been a great module to quench all our thirsts for IOT projects. Since its release, it has developed a strong community and evolved into an easy to use, cheap and powerful Wi-Fi module. Another open-source platform which is much more popular is the Arduino, it already has tons of projects built around […]
About two years ago, I built a big 120 face LED geodesic dome that plays music with a MIDI output. However, it was a difficult build and the sensors weren’t completely reliable. I decided to build the Bucky Touch, a smaller version of my geodesic dome that is easier to construct and has upgraded capacitive touch sensors. […]
Introduction Remote control cars have been used for ages just like boy’s toys or gadgets that make people enjoy the feeling of driving from the comfort of their homes. As children’s toys radio-controlled Cars still play an informative role for all those willing to learn about electronics, programs, and mechanics. This project brings the notion […]
Welcome back to my deep dive into the creation of a low-cost DIY Arduino turntable designed for photogrammetry enthusiasts. In this continuation, I will share a detailed, step-by-step breakdown of the build process, highlighting the technical challenges and solutions, while providing comprehensive resources to empower you to replicate this project. The Components The first step […]
An Introduction to the Kit The Arduino Sensor Kit-Base is defined as an educational tool for understanding how sensors and microcontrollers work. Arduino, an open-source hardware giant, designed this basic kit, and it is cheap compared to other kits out in the market and easy to use for beginners in working with sensors. It has […]
PLCs or programmable logic controllers are among the most adaptable and common automation devices employed in industries and most equipment. While traditional PLCs are cost effective they are also somewhat costly and difficult to program, thus restricting their use in education and for hobbies. This is something that the Arduino PLC Starter Kit tries to […]
An if statement allows you to choose between two discrete options, TRUE or FALSE. When there are more than two options, you can use multiple if statements, or you can use the switch statement. Switch allows you to choose between several discrete options. This guide demonstrates how to utilize a switch to activate one of […]
Background and motivation Two factors inspired this project: my struggle to wake up in the morning and my enjoyment of collecting and graphing data from daily tasks. My main problem with waking up in the morning is that feeling of grogginess along with an intense desire to sleep more. However, I’ve noticed that sleeping without […]
