In this guide, I will demonstrate how to construct a robot that can solve mazes. This is my third try at creating one. The initial attempt was a total flop. The second was proficient at reaching the maze’s end but could not backtrack and take the fastest route. This is my third and present one. […]
Be sure to check out my new instructable , the ‘little Tank’! Really nice tracked design complete with cut files! update: I’ve had so much response on this instructable, thanks to all. If you end up making one, please let me know! I’d love to put your work on my website! New new update – […]
When it comes to debugging a microcontroller circuit, there aren’t a lot of simple options. Since a microcontroller circuit might have multiple things going on at the same time, measuring voltages with a DMM isn’t an option. Using an computerized In-Circuit-Debugger solution is expensive and elaborate, and time-consuming to set up. People often resort to […]
Wise Clock 3 is an open-source, highly hackable geeky clock that shows a lot more than the time. Its main function is to display user-editable quotations retrieved from an SD card (like those used in photo cameras). In addition, Wise Clock 3 can show the time in “Pong” mode or “Pacman” mode. It can also […]
While building an Arduino Uno based Midi-Controller for Ableton Live, I came across the HIDUINO project ( http://code.google.com/p/hiduino/ ). It allows you to turn your Arduino Uno (or any other device using an AVR-USB chipset like the 8u2) into a driverless HID/Midi device. It’s much more comfortable than using a software based serial to midi […]
i had heard a few years back about the ability of hooking up toy EEGs so you can interface them with your computer. I was reminded of this for a project i wanted to do for a class (instructable coming soon ;-)), and i also found a “Star Wars force trainer” on amazon for 30 […]
This tutorial shows you how to use an Arduino to turn that old dusty music player into a Bluetooth controlled docking station. Even if it has a cracked screen or a dead battery it can still be used. The following instructions will show you how use an Arduino and a couple of cheap parts to […]
This tutorial will show you how to build an interactive toy for children. This toy wants to give a boost to children to move and play with friends at home or in a park, instead of watching TV and playing videogames. Catchin’ time is a project developed during our thesis in Ecodesign at the Polytechnic […]
In this Instructable I’m going to show you how I went about building my very own life size talking Portal Turret from start to finish. This is a fairly in depth project that will cover every stage of construction and all the techniques I used along the way. Hopefully there will be a lot of […]
The Arduino Project Board is basically a board to transer your ATMEGA168/328 to when you have completed your project and no longer need to use the Arduino as a development board. Simply transfer the programmed chip from the Arduino board to the Arduino project board and you are in business. Now your Arduino is no […]
