That whole project started a while back with an hackaday article from 2014 in which [Johngineer] build the ‘ChronodeVFD’, a wristwatch made from an old soviet vacuum fluorescent display. It kind of triggered the ‘shut up and take my money’ reflex in me, but as it wasn’t for sale and didn’t have any design details available I […]
This Arduino project uses an Optical Flow Sensor (ADNS3080) to capture movement. Then translate the data to move servo’s making it look as eyes are following moving object. This is not an easy build. It requires 3d printing, soldering, some general technical understanding and problem solving as this guide cannot be 100% perfect. I will […]
Hello, Guys! In this instructable tutorial, I’m going to make an Arduino nano based smartphone (Bluetooth) controlled car. All we know that Arduino is an excellent prototyping platform, principally because it uses a friendly programming language and there are a lot of extra incredible components that provide us great experiences. We can integrate the Arduino […]
BotTender, a bartender assistant that pours the perfect shot! BotTender is an autonomous robot that is designed with the aim of automatising bars. It is placed on top of the bar and detects the shot glasses in front of it. Once the glasses are detected, it approaches to the glass and asks for the customers […]
The project conducted as part of the Computational Design and Digital Fabrication seminar in the ITECH masters program and was brought to you by Vanessa Costalonga, James Hayward and Christo van der Hoven. Have you ever doubted the choices that you make? Have you ever looked elsewhere for wisdom and clarity only to find disappointment […]
Liquids or other objects appear colored because theyreflect or transmit certain colors and in turn swallow (absorb) others. With a so-called photometer, those colors (wavelengths) can be determined, which are absorbed by liquids. The basic principle is simple: with a LED of a certain color you first shine through a cuvette filled with water or […]
This is a version 2.0 of one of my first forays into Arduino and DIY MIDI programming. I’ve developed my skills in prototyping and design so I thought it would be a good demonstration of process and progression. With a more informed design process I recycled the buttons from my first attempt and set off […]
This instructable explains how to make a tilt compensated compass using an Arduino UNO R3, an LCD display, and an IvenSense MPU-9250 multi-chip-module that contains an MPU-6050 accelerometer / gyro and an AK8963 magnetometer within the same package. The LCD simultaneously displays the Heading, (P)itch, and (R)oll. The heading accuracy is within 2 degrees depending […]
How to structure wind-sensor logging code: validated event windows, debounce assumptions, sleep gaps and how to interpret a failed cloud upload.
