Today, I constructed a compact 3x3x3 LED cube utilizing an ATtiny2313 that I acquired around 2 weeks ago. Every time I wanted to update the LED cube with better patterns, I had to bring out my breadboard, reconnect everything following ATtiny2313 pin-outs, and upload the updated code. I proceeded to search on eBay and Amazon […]
Eventually you are going to find yourself holding a 12v solenoid, motor, or light and wondering “How the heck am I supposed to control this from my Arduino?” And we have covered this in the past. Today we are going to talk about another way of doing just that, this time with an N-Channel MOSFET […]
Electrical appliances, such as smartphones chargers and room heaters, play a crucial role in our everyday routines. This includes larger devices like air conditioners and washing machines. With the ongoing worldwide energy crisis, it is essential to understand the electricity usage of these devices. Although our monthly electricity bills give us a broad view of […]
In this tutorial, I will show you how to achieve wireless communication of variables between 2 Arduinos using the HC-12 module, that operates from 433,4-473 Mhz. HC-12s are wireless modules for arduino to arduino communication, because they can send multiple variables over long distances-ones up to 1km-using only 2 digital pins, not even PWM pins, […]
Have you ever faced this situation while sitting on your favorite spot on the couch or recliner, comfortably watching your favorite TV program? You’re snugly tucked under the blanket, the air conditioning is pleasantly cool, the sun outside is shining it’s delicate warm golden rays on the closed window, the air (from the air vents) […]
The ESP8266 ESP-01 is a module for Wi-Fi that enables microcontrollers to connect to a Wi-Fi network. This module is an independent SOC (System On a Chip) that does not require a microcontroller for managing inputs and outputs like you would typically do with an Arduino, as the ESP-01 functions as a miniature computer. It […]
In theory, it is quite simple to perform sound localization by measuring the phase difference of signals received by two microphones that are far apart in space. The devil is always in the details. I have not come across any project made for Arduino like this before, and I am wondering if it is even […]
Introduction The Arduino platform has lowered the entry barrier for physical computing and IoT development. However, learning to code is also key. The Arduino Starter Kit Multi-language addresses this with an all-in-one solution for exploring Arduino through multiple programming languages. Included Hardware The kit includes an Arduino Uno, breadboard, jumper wires, LEDs, resistors, and buttons […]
You are never to old to learn and try new things. I think one of the best days in my life was the day I discovered the Instructables web site. It opened up a whole new world to me. This is my third instructable . I really enjoy building anything that I can ride on […]
Today, we will be measuring weight by connecting a Load Cell and HX711 Weight Sensor with Arduino. Weight machines can be found in various stores, and they show the weight when an item is placed on the weighing platform. Thus, we are constructing a weighing device with Arduino and load cells capable of measuring up […]
