This example demonstrates string-based communication from the Arduino board to the computer using a call-and-response (handshaking) method. The sketch sends an ASCII string on startup and repeats that until it gets a serial response from the computer. Then it sends three sensor values as ASCII-encoded numbers, separated by commas and terminated by a linefeed and […]
My first meeting with microcontrollers was a few decades ago (you might remember the first Parallax Basic Stamps) but with the Arduino platform it happened more recently, only 6 years ago and although at that time the development boards were quite difficult to find, even then I found it was a very interesting thing. Later […]
Hey dudes! Lets build the trinity synt! ! More information about the synth at: www.bastl-instruments.com Before you start: the board solders from both sides and the component goes always above its printed sign so it hides the sign! You should know that there are some differences between some of the versions. SQNCR has more buttons […]
Once after Russian EFT community podcast where one of the guests said that expensive items, such as LEDX, should occupy a larger number of the slots in secure containers… It didn’t happen in 0.12,6 patch, but it did happened in my workshop. Supplies Things required: Arduino microcontroller (in different steps I used Arduino Uno and […]
This example demonstrates multi-byte communication from the Arduino board to the computer using a call-and-response (handshaking) method. This sketch sends an ASCII A (byte of value 65) on startup and repeats that until it gets a serial response from the computer. Then it sends three sensor values as single bytes, and waits for another response […]
An Egg plotter is an art robot that can draw on spherical shaped objects such as eggs. You could also use this machine to draw on ping pong balls and golf balls. You can use your imagination with the designs you put on it, you could for example make personalized eggs for Easter. In this […]
I love collecting and analyzing data. I also love building electronic gadgets. A year ago when I discovered the Arduino products, I immediately thought, “I’d like to collect environmental data.” It was a windy day in Portland, OR, so I decided to capture wind data. I looked at some of the instructables for anemometers and […]
Lots of projects involve monitoring of some kind of data, such as environmental data, often using an Arduino for control. In my case, I wanted to monitor the salt level in my water softener. You might want to access the data over your home network, but equally you might want to display it where it’s […]
This example demonstrates one techinque for calibrating sensor input. The Arduino takes sensor readings for five seconds during the startup, and tracks the highest and lowest values it gets. These sensor readings during the first five seconds of the sketch execution define the minimum and maximum of expected values for the readings taken during the […]
“Sensor Retouch” touch sensitive interactive instrument which allows to play Water, Fruit, Plants and Conductive surfaces as a musical instrument by your touch. All you need is Arduino and few upgraded touch sensitive sensors, i’ll teach you how to put together everything and let start playing with your new interactive instrument ! A project by […]
