Line follower robot is a useful robot that is used in ware houses, industries, and stores etc, where it follows a dedicated path. The presented robot captures line position with IR Sensors. If the robot get off the line it will U turn and back to the line again. Also, it would stop while the designed spot is […]
In this video; 3D robot hand assembly, servo control, flex sensor control, wireless control with nRF24L01, Arduino receiver and transmitter source code are available. In short, in this project we will learn how to control a robot hand with a wireless glove. Step 1: Video Tutorial With this tutorial video you can see the robotic […]
In this project we will have a closer look at accelerometer ICs and find out how we can use them with an Arduino. Afterwards we will combine such an IC with a couple of complementary components and a 3D printed enclosure in order to create a digital spirit level. Let’s get started! Step 1: Watch the […]
The Tier 2 Feeder is a big step up from the Tier 1. This version uses an ESP8266 wifi module to sync the arduino’s clock to control the feeding schedule and the tank’s lighting. Step 1: What You Will Need: Everything in Tier 1 except the light timer ESP8266-01 FTDI programmer (to program the ESP8266) Soldering […]
Hello DIYrs, have there been instances when you really wanted to share your feelings with someone and no trusted one was around? In today’s busy world, this is a common instance. Well, a chatbot can help here to make you feel better. And that leads to the introduction of Eve. Eve is a cute little […]
If your house is anything like mine, some tasks may be forgotten when in a rush. Don’t let it be your pet that gets forgotten about! This automated dog food dispenser uses an Arduino to deliver the right amount of kibble at the right time. All parts are custom designed to fit and work together. […]
Let’s learn how to control multiple LEDs using Arduino’s digital outputs and a breadboard. Expanding upon the last lesson on blinking an LED, We’ll connect some LEDs to the Arduino Uno and compose a simple program to light them up in a pattern. You can follow along virtually using Tinkercad Circuits. You can even view this lesson from […]
I have been working with Arduino and electronics for many years now, and I am still learning. In this ever-expanding world of micro-controllers, it is easy to get lost and run circles around yourself trying to find information. In this Instructable, I will be showing you: What an Arduino is and does. Where to start […]
In this tutorial I show how you can make a minimalist clock synchronized with the internet. I tested it with two different ESP8266 based boards: Firebeetle and NodeMCU. The microcontroller gets current time from a Google server, and displays it on a NeoPixel LED ring. It also receives current weather data from WeatherUnderground, using IFTTT […]
This is a YouTube Subscriber counter built with an ESP8266. It uses the YouTube apiv3 to poll for changes. It’s made specifically for one of my favourite youtubers Henk Rijckaert. It was featured in his livestream where the goal was to get to 9000 subscribers. Step 1: Parts Needed – Electronics and Case The project is […]
