I’ve been wanting to start exploring the world of microcontrollers and programming for some time now, so I came up with this simple project which uses an app called “Blynk” to allow you to wirelessly control an Arduino board through your wifi. Now obviously the end result isn’t the most practical device you’ll ever build, […]

How to Make a Cheap Arduino MIDI Controller
I’m a huge fan of technology and music, but when I decided to start making my own electronic music, I was discouraged by the high price of MIDI keyboards and controllers. After a lot of tinkering, I saw the opportunity to create my own MIDI keyboard using an Arduino Uno and electric paint, for a […]
“With U Smart Sole” DIY GPS Embedded Smart Shoe Sole #MITBetterWorld
What do you do when someone is chasing you or you are lost? Cross your fingers? Don’t. When you are in trouble, just cross your feet [in a special way] and your location is sent to your family members. Wait there’s more! Even the family can get your location just by calling the shoe. When you call the SIM in […]
DIY Multi Featured Robot With Arduino
This robot was mainly built for understanding Arduino and combining various projects of Arduino to form a Multi Featured Arduino Robot. And further, who doesn’t want to have a pet robot? So I named it BLUE ROVIER 316. I could have bought a beautiful tracked chassis but making it from scratch teaches you more and […]
Arduino XMAS Hitcounter
Christmas is coming closer, so here is my contribution to put you in the right mood. It is a blog hitcounter, that rings a bell. Literally. It puts a smile on your face, every time someone hits your blog. It consists of an Arduino board, a bell, a servo and a couple of lines of […]
Arduino Charliplexed Heart, Just in Time for Valentines Day.
Here is an Arduino controlled Charliplexed LED heart just in time for Valentine’s Day. It uses a total of 6 wires to controll the 27 LEDs. A PIC or AVR could easily be used for this, but I have Arduinos lying around and they are easy to program. Plus I want to be able to […]
Drumming MIDI Glove Using Arduino and Light Sensors
I will describe a fun and easy way to build your own sound expression MIDI enabled glove without expending lot’s of money on MIDI Interfaces or expensive sensors. Feel free to contact me directly by mail if you like it or have suggestions. This project was inspired by other do it yourself projects using Piezo […]
DIY Bare Minimum Arduino Mega 2560
[2017 Update] Eagle files please click here. The objective of this project is to create a version of Arduino Mega 2560 board that has lower component count and smaller board size. Personally to be used for robotics projects that require ATmega2560’s 256 KB flash and digital/analog pins, where the size, weight, and USB port location of […]
How to Make Your Own Professional Arduino Sheld
In this instructable I will show you how to make your own professional looking arduino shield. In the proses of designing the arduino shield I will use eagle.cad, arduino software & viewplot. First step in making a arduino shield is thinking of what you want it to be. depending on what your shield is going […]
Arduino Radio
Update 16.04.2015 just thought how would a “cool” kit look a like, so I get an altoids tin box eat all the thinks inside and put all necassary parts inside. 😉 a new project from good old Germany. I got some of those very popular FM radio modules at banggood.com, and was thinking how to […]
