In some of my previous Arduino instructurables I have show to the Arduino beginers on how to control servos in different ways. And in my last instructurable I have show the modification of a Parallax servo for a 360º rotation. So in this one I will show Arduino beginers the use of those 360º rotation servos. With that […]
This instructable will show you how to create a dice using Arduino and few components. It’s an easy and fun project, suitable for beginners and those who want to start with Arduino; it also requires a minimal amount of components. This explains how to create it in the breadboard, how to solder it and how […]
B-Squares is a modular electronics platform that enables users to build, customize, and continuously update their own electronics applications. In this B-Squares App we will cover how to assemble a simple Color-LCD Application using the Arduino-Square. Hardware: 1. Arduino-Square. 2. Battery-Square 3. Color LCD Shield. 4. FTDI USB connector (3.3V). Software: 1. Arduino Software. 2. BSQ-ColorLCD […]
Everyone loves the Simon game ! So we decided to take it to another level. This project was done for our Things That Think class where we had to make a PlushBot (a plush toy that thinks! “with computation”) thus, kids were our target.We decided on an octopus that would have all eight arms flashing, […]
This project and future projects can be found at my website http://revoltlab.com/ where you can also find my blog. UPDATE LOG: NOW SUPER SIMPLE TO REPROGRAM! Easy FTDI USB interface hardware explained in step 10 Easy FTDI USB interface programming explained in step 13 NEW code uploaded works perfectly with speaker output! see step 13 […]
For my Digital Multimedia class final, I created a treat dispenser that is activated by pulling a chain, which starts a servo motor that spins a wheel to dispense treats to my to African Grey parrots.

This page will show you how to put together a simple stepper motor driver board that can be controlled with an Arduino. I built mine to use with my heliostat projects, but it could be used for other things too. Update: I no longer use this driver board with my sun tracking / heliostat system. […]
For a recent project I needed to build a large and obvious bar graph display. This was to show the power generated from a bicycle generator. I came up with this design and was pretty pleased with the final results as it is relatively low cost but still pretty visual. It stands 1.5m high and […]
This example shows how to simulate a simple closed-loop control algorithm in Simulink® and how to run it on an Arduino® board. Supported Hardware: Arduino Leonardo Arduino Mega 2560 Arduino Mega ADK Arduino Pro Arduino Uno Available versions of this example: Arduino Mega 2560 board: Arduino Mega2560 Drive Open-loop Arduino Mega2560 Drive Closed-loop On this […]
So you’re here because you want to start learning some of the Arduino Basics… So let’s start with THE most basics… no this “tutorial” is actually a little more basic than what you have in mind. It only requires that you: Have ANY Arduino Board. Have installed the drivers and required software for the board […]
