This is a follow up to an earlier Instructable for attaching the guts of a cheap clip MP3 player to an Arduino. http://www.instructables.com/id/MP3-Interface-for-Arduino-Cheap-and-Easy/ The previous Instuctable showed how to use the Arduino to control all of the functions of the MP3 player: volume increase and decrease, next and previous MP3 file, play or pause. The previous […]
In this, my first Instructable I’m going to show you how to make a stripped down Arduino for a fraction of the price, using Stripboard/Veroboard. Material List: 1x Atmel ATMega168 = �2.65 1x Stipboard = 72p 1x 7805 Voltage regulator = 26p 2x LEDs = 16p 2x 220 Ohm resistors = 8p 1x 10k Ohm […]
Twitter Mention Mood Light — a mood light that alerts you when @username is mentioned on Twitter. This is a simple intro in how to control your Arduino from Twitter. If you are new to Arduino Twitter / Arduino Processing Twitter / Arduino Python Twitter / Twitter Mood Light, then please refer to simpleTweet_00_processing and […]
This is a project for Arduino to make a 2D Level, aimed at beginners. Arduino draws a circle on an LED Matrix that moves around according to readings from a 2D Accelerometer. Objectives: * Learn how to draw a circle using simple Math’s * Learn how to use the LOL shield for the Arduino * […]
I acquired an old fax machine that looked like a ripe source of parts, like steppers, IR sensors, micro switches and things. As it turned out, it was. It also had a nice looking 2 x 16 character LCD. However, after taking everything apart, I found the LCD only had 13 pins instead of the […]
This instuctable is about making sort of a calculator that enables the user by using an analog 12-digit keyboard and 4 buttons to input the a,b,c variables into a equation and get the solution for it if there is any.(well if u don’t know what an second grade equation is probably u haven’t been in […]
IMPORTANT: CODE IS NOW UPDATED. FIXES INCLUDE ADDING AN INTEGER VALUE TO MANIPULATE TIMING AND FIXING A DOUBLE-BLINKING LED. Thanks. It is my understanding that many Larson Scanners can only pulse from side to side. I felt that that needed to be changed, seeing as that in the newer (yet short-lived) Knight Rider series revival […]
The ElectroFried is a game with a shocking fun level. ElectroFried is developed for the Global Game Jam 2011 in Antwerp in design center the winkelhaak. The Team Jekkos/ Cinezaster decided to make a simple game based on colliding electrons. With a nasty side effect, a electro shock. As a input devised I hacked a old […]
First of all lets get this out of the way… It’s so bad This is going to be showing how to hack the Nintendo Powerglove. By hack I mean tap into the flex sensors and use the buttons and d pad and add anything you want. In my case I added an accelerometer. I got mine from […]
During the First Meeting of Electronic Arts in Florianópolis, we built a Breathalyzer using the Alcohol Gas Sensor MQ-3 and a Arduino Board to use in the last day of the meeting, in which we gave a party. You can see a quick video two posts below. Last days I received many emails asking for […]
