Happy Androids with Arduino Video instructions
Arduino + Android Normally smartphone events are tightly coupled to your phone device itself. When your cell phone is ringing, your phone speaker plays a ringtone. When you get a new text message, your phone displays it on its screen. Wouldn’t it be thrilling to make thoses phone events visible somewhere else, on your wearable, […]
Programming an ATTiny13A using Arduino & servo interpreter
So there I was, browsing eBay, looking for some cheap deals on Atmel chips when i came across a pair of ATTiny13 chips for £2.50. I just had to have them! After all, how hard can it be? I needed a small chip to read servo signals from a hobby RC Receiver and control a […]
$1.50 Arduino TV Annoyer
Hey Arduino fans! Here is an ‘ible for making a device that turns TVs on when you want them off, and off then you want them on! If you hide it in something inconspicuous, it would make a great April Fools joke or gag gift. And the best part is that the total parts cost […]
Magic Light Capacitance Sensor using an Arduino
This was my very first arduino project. Its great for beginners. Fade the color or the lights my moving your hands near it. It fades from a pretty purple blue to a firey red-orange. Its was SUPER easy to build, not to hard to write the code, and its really impresses people! I gave it […]
Bug-Catching Spider in Web using Arduino Part 2
This project is a collaboration between idesigner4 and bhasudha(me), students in the Fall 2012 course Things That Think (CSCI 7000) at The University of Colorado – Boulder. The story of our bug-catching spider automaton goes like this: A giant evil spider resides in a big web. One day an unfortunate lady bug gets trapped in […]
Experimenters Guide for Arduino as Performed at OIT
Resources Adafruit ARDX – v1.3 Experimentation Kit for Arduino Experimenters Guide for Arduino (PDF) Bread Board Layouts (PDF) Arduino Tutorial Bundle (Instructable) This Arduino Tutorial is going to be very similar to the Arduino Tutorial Bundle Instructable but because we are working on this in our class I figured Instructables would be a good place […]
L.O.G. $10 Arduino
There are probably thousands of articles on making an Arduino. So who needs another Arduino? Well, this Lazy Old Geek(L.O.G.) needs one. Here’s the features I would like: Features: Low cost More permanent than a breadboard Not a custom PCB More prototyping area than a RBBB or Anarduino or Boarduino Easier prototyping than just perfboards […]
Arduino traffic lights
I made this project on the same night that my Arduino Duemilanove arrived from Cool Components. After being an Instructables member for about a year I though it was time I should contribute. There is another Arduino traffic light project similar to this, but it is much more complex; mine is aimed at beginners and […]
