So, I manage a creative technology lab at California College of the Arts. It’s essentially an educational hackerspace for art and design students. Pretty awesome, right? After graduating from the University of Minnesota with a degree in mechanical engineering, I was desperately trying to find a job that would allow me to use my technical […]
Hello! In this Instructable i will teach you how to control a servo using a Photocell. This is very simple and good for beginners. Step 1: Materials 1 x Photocell 1 x 10k Resistor 1 x Arduino 1x Breadboard 1x Servo and some jumpers Step 2: Wiring it up Wire everything following the schematic below. […]
BTW!!!!! This instructable is awsomeeeeeeThis is a very simple but at the same time a very hard project depending on your skill level. Lets get to building! What this is, is a wireless animatronic hand that doesn’t need a computer to operate. The user wears a control glove and can control the animatronic hand precisely. […]
This project describes the first part of the following two projects: A wireless doorbell transmitter as described in this Instructable A wireless doorbell receiver to be described in the Wireless Doorbell Receiver Instructable When I am sitting in the backyard of my house I cannot hear it when somebody is ringing the doorbell at the front door. […]
I was inspired by the digital/ analog clock to make my own special clock as my second instructable. I browsed the internet and found that servo clocks are rare and binary are common. So i decided to combine the two and this is what I made. I know it looks crappy but I’m an amateur […]
Who would have thought that just about every Arduino attachment can be controlled in some way with a TV remote? Now its time to find out how. Arduino.skp141 KB Step 1: Setup and Materials The setup for this is quite basic. The real challenge is finding neat products for this and writing the code. Materials. […]
In this project, we will learn about LED Matrix Displays and two different projects on Arduino 8×8 LED Matrix Interface. The first project will be a simple interface between Arduino and 8X8 LED Matrix to display information (even scrolling information and images can be displayed) and the second project will be an advanced project where […]
Frugal Engineering is the best way forward for science. If you’re interested in making some arduino’s from scratch , you’ve come to the right place. You can see a video tutorial of this instructable : here It will supplement any loopholes or doubts you may have. Lets start with an introduction on what we’ll do […]
This is an introduction on how to setup, make a basic connection, and send data to and from an Arduino using Bluetooth! Bluetooth is great for transmitting data over medium distances and what’s more, Arduino just treats it like a serial data connection. This means that we can use the Serial Library. That’s a nice […]
In this project, we will see how to control a DC Motor using Arduino and L298N Motor Driver. There are different ways to control a DC Motor but the Arduino DC Motor Control using L298N Motor Driver is becoming quite popular for many reasons. Overview A DC Motor is the simplest of motors that beginners […]
