You look up, they tilt down! A tilt switch controls 2 servos which open/ close shutters on a pair of custom glasses. project by Rob Faulkner and You-Wen Ji Step 1: Parts (1) 30 x 60 cm plastic sheet (We used polystyrene but its up to you!) (1) 100cm x 1mm steel rod or equivalent […]
Preamble This article, the 11th in a series on home automation documents how to create and integrate an IoT Desktop Device into an existing home automation system including all the necessary software functionality to enable the successful deployment within a domestic environment. Picture 1 shows the completed IoT desktop device and Picture 2 shows all the component […]
This is an Instructables on how I made an Arduino based Laser CNC wood engraver and Thin paper cutter using old DVD drives, 250mW laser. Playing area is 40mm x 40mm max. Isn’t it fun making a own machine out of old things? Step 1: Parts and Materials Required Arduino Nano (with usb cable) 2x […]
In this instructable I will be demonstrating how to control Teddy Ruxpin with a phone and the help of an arduino. After this modification Teddy Ruxpin will work as Google Assistant(or just about any other virtual assistant) and be able to lip sync voice recordings. This is just a start on what I would like […]
If you’ve ever watched the Harry Potter series, then you would have seen Neville receive a gift from his Gran which was a Remembrall. For those Muggles who haven’t watched it yet or don’t remember the scene, a Remembrall is a large marble sized glass ball that contains smoke which turns red when its owner […]
Hello everyone, All this started with doing a simple XY plotter after completing it successfully, I thought to develop a simple speech to braille text converter.I started searching it online and unexpectedly the prices were too high,that boosted me built a small portable and cheap writer. As we know that whatever we think to build, […]
Overview This “Internet Speed Gauge” will give you near real time oversight of your network usage. This information is available on the web interface of most home routers. However, accessing it requires you to stop your current task to go look it up. I wanted to view this information without having to interrupt my current […]
Welcome to my first instructable! The project I want to share with you today is Arduino maze game, which became a pocket console as capable as Arduboy and similar Arduino based consoles. It can be flashed with my (or your) future games thanks to exposed ICSP header. I had an idea few months ago to […]
Let’s learn how to read a pushbutton using Arduino’s digital input! We’ll connect up a simple circuit using a solderless breadboard and use some simple Arduino code to control a single LED. So far you’ve learned to control LEDs with code, which is one use for Arduino’s outputs. This lesson builds on outputs by adding an […]
In this Instructables I’ve come with an idea that can be implemented to existing 3d printed prosthetic hands. In existing electrically powered prosthesis I Couldn’t find the use of capacitive touch sensing technology for the actuation of fingers. This project combines two very cool things, Arduino with Capacitive touch sensing for the actuation and remix of e-NABLE Phoenix hand design. […]
