In this post we present the design of a scale that connects to the Internet and automatically sends weight info on a Google Document. The project is composed of Arduino Uno board Wi-Fi shield additional shield that we used to manage data collection and I/O with a clear and comfortable and clear LCD display Velleman scale […]
Economical alternative to original Arduino ethernet shields, allows data rates up to 10 Mbps and is achieved with a traditional assembly components. One of the most interesting shield that you can mount on the Arduino platform is certainly the ethernet shield, because enable numerous networking applications such as remote control of systems and users, web […]
Thanks to everyone who supported this project and voted for it in the Arduino Challenge! I was awarded second prize and hope to participate in more Arduino contests in the near future. This tutorial will explain a simple way to make a password protected bluetooth door lock using your Arduino, which can be unlocked by […]
When I was in the 8th grade, I was intrigued while playing the motion games on Nokia 5800. I was thrilled, how I could control the racing car by only tilting the phone. I used to dream of making this same car in the real world. Now, in 11th grade ( Age 17) having got an Arduino […]
This project was the result of an urge to contribute something to the Creative Games section of my kids’ elementary school fair. The kids loved it for it’s simple old-school game aesthetic mixed with Wii-style and Kinect-style video game control. It’s a spin-off project of an earlier Ball & Plate experiment mentioned here in the Instructables […]
This project slightly modifies the Google Android sample app called “Bluetooth Chat” so you can type a message in the Android app and that same message will appear on an LCD attached to an Arduino Uno. Functionality: Android talks to Arduino 1. Run the Android “Bluetooth Chat” sample app (after we modify the app in […]
This instructable will show you how to control your computer’s keyboard and mouse with an Android app via bluetooth to an Arduino BACKGROUND Ever wanted to control your computer’s mouse/keyboard functionality without having to actually sit in front of it? I do all the time. For instance, I often hook my laptop up to the […]
In this tutorial you’ll learn how to use a bluetooth module and MIT’s app inventor to create a wireless serial link between an android phone and an arduino board. Here is a short video showing an example app I created. I’ll describe how to do the wiring, write an arduino sketch that can accept basic […]
RC cars can be WiFi Cars…? RC cars are cool, but cheap RC cars have limited range and can only be controlled with the particular controller that was included with the car. I purchased a RC jeep, complete with 4 wheel drive, flexible suspension, and off-road tires for about 30 bucks. Not long after playing […]
In this tutorial we are going to go over building a Arduino robot that can be controlled via bluetooth with an Android phone/tablet. This is a beginners guide that is going to briefly go over the process of wiring and programming your robot. Build list… The following is the list of components we are going to use: 1. Pololu […]
