2000 pictures compose this piece- that is, 2000 perfect different water drops into which we mapped an animation. Droplets that behave and look strangely similar at the stage of less entropy, and become more disorderly as they splash. The final result of the piece you have seen has absolutely no CGI, and was shot in […]
So my boss came to me one last week and said he wanted to scare the trick-or-treaters who came to his home, and the kids who would come to work during a special Halloween Walk the community does. Thus was born the talking pumpkin. In short, I used an Arduino, an SD card read/writer, and […]
This Instructable details how to build a holiday dreidel display for your roof. It uses coat hanger wire, rope light, and an Arduino controller to control a fading demo mode and a “spin” mode. In the demo mode, the symbols fade in and out, going from one to another. In “spin” mode, the symbols flash […]
Arduino & Visual Basic 6 Light Controller This project illustrates an early attempt at bridging Visual Basic 6 (VB6) with the Arduino platform through serial communication over a USB interface. While the concept originated as a beginner’s exercise in VB6 after only two weeks of learning, it highlights important principles of cross-platform interaction, string parsing, […]
Greetings! I’m Russell Petersen. I’m an engineer, inventor, designer, fabricator, and dreamer. I’m a junior Electrical Engineer by trade, located and working in the San Francisco Bay Area. I love playing with Solid State Lighting, and came up with this idea one night. Simply stated, It’s a custom built light box with a logo adhered […]
This walk-through will show you how to build a sensor to monitor your plant’s environment and use Stats in Sound’s ERC-20 app to turn this data into music, allowing you to listen to your plant’s reaction to it’s environment. For more information on this project, please visit www.statsinsound.org.uk. Below is a sample of music generated […]
This project is very interesting because it shows the sequence of all letters of our English alphabet. That is, the project generates capital letters from the A to the Z based on Arduino code and showed by an alphanumeric display. I’m using a common cathode alphanumeric display and an Arduino Uno in order to constructing […]
This is my first in a series of more advanced Arduino tutorials. Now that we’ve covered the basics in tutorials 1-10 (you have watched them all right!?), it’s time to start pursuing some more complex projects! In this episode, we’ll utilize an SD card shield from cooking-hacks.com to create a datalogger. First, I’ll walk you […]
The TiltKey is a keyboard input device based on tilting. Based on the angle that it is tilted at, and the direction it is tilted in, you can write every letter of the alphabet, every number, and every symbol found on a standard US keyboard. Operation is very simple; the LCD display shows the letter […]
