Friction can often seem like a ‘boring’ force. Something we are all familiar with from a young age, but friction does a lot more than just make objects slow down – although that is a big part of this project. Friction allows the world to work as it is today. Friction between your shoes and […]

Sensory Helping Hands: Modular Sensory Augmentation System (Prototype)
Having made a lot of wearables as an engineer, advisor, and through replication, there’s one irritation that I find consistent with a lot of systems (mine included) – components (typically sensors & actuators) can’t be maneuvered to the wearer’s preferences. To begin to think about how to solve this issue, I’ve made this prototype system […]
Otto Robot || Arduino Robot || Simple Arduino Robot
Hi, First off all Please subscribe to my youtube channel. This is the simplest Arduino robot. The name of this Arduino robot is Otto Robot. The beginners can build it with simple steps. All codes and library is given on my github page. Let’s begin this cut little arduino project. Step 1: Requirements Robot Body, you can […]
Hack Computer to Make It Smart!
Have you ever wondered why smartphones are called smart-phones? Because they are smart, right? They do some works automatically, smartly. That’s the short answer. I was thinking something, even if computers are a lot more powerful than phones, why aren’t they smart! For instance, mobile phones have automatic brightness control system, which is handy and […]
MAXIMIZE THE CAPABILITIES OF ESP-01 ESP8266
ESP-01 ESP8266 is a popular and widely used module because of its low-cost, reliability and easily availability in the market. It can be used as a stand-alone device or connected with a microcontroller. The ESP-01 is the smallest ESP8266 module and it has limited I/Os. It has totally 8 pins, four of them are needed […]
Arduino Barometric Pressure Web Server
This example shows how to use SPI communications to read data from a SCP1000 Barometric Pressure sensor, and how to then post that data to the web by using your Arduino/Ethernet Shield combo as a simple web server. Using the Ethernet library, your device will be able to answer HTTP requests by responding with just […]
Arduino Bluetooth PC Fan Wind Sensor With RemoteXY
This projects is a mix of two of my main passions, Arduino and Wind. Here is a simple project that I used this OLD PC fan as a small wind generator to sense the wind speed. Here we are using modified PC fan as a wind speed sensor using Arduino and showing the results on a smartphone running the […]
Create an Internet Connected Pill Dispenser
The P.I.L. Box – A Better Medication Reminder System Studies show the consequences of patients not taking medications according to doctor’s orders can be serious, especially in older patients.With today’s low cost micro-controllers and sensors (and the incentive of the Radio Shack / Instructables Micro Controller Contest) I thought there must be a better way […]
COD (Camera on Deck) – Motion Time Lapse
INTRODUCTION Hi. I’ve built this little device for my HNC project back in the old days (2015). Because I like photography, and my task was to make something using microcontrollers. I’ve made this little device using Arduino UNO, as this was an ideal board for this job (and cheapest). There were quite a few similar […]
DIY USB Type-C Power Delivery Trigger Board
In this video we will have a closer look at a USB Type-C Power Delivery Trigger board. Such boards are used to output 5V, 9V, 12V, 15V or even 20V from a Power Delivery compatible power source. So I will be showing you how such a commercial board works and I will try to create […]
