Useless Box

Useless Box

Interested in making a useless box? Building this project was a really fun experience for me. Having very little prior knowledge about circuits, making this simple gadget was a great introduction to circuits for me. And, it’s really fun to play with once completed! This project is meant for beginners with little or no experience […]

DIY Solar Panel Monitoring System V1.0

DIY Solar Panel Monitoring System – V1.0

A few months back, I have installed a small-scale Off-Grid Solar System. I am always very curious to see the performance of my solar PV system, and the good news is that the charge controller that I am using has its own local display for monitoring. But, I am badly missing the remote monitoring facility. […]

Concept

Neo Pixel Tic Tac Toe (Arduino Uno)

Tic Tac Toe is a two player game in which the players compete to get 3 pieces in a row. In this project we constructed a Tic Tac Toe game using a number pad and neo pixels as pieces. This results in a portable Tic Tac Toe game requiring only a wall outlet to play. […]

ESP32 CAM INTRO

ESP32 CAM WEB Server and Getting Started Guide

This Instructables is all about setting up ESP32 CAM Webserver. The goal here is to connect ESP32 CAM with FTDI Module and program it with the CAM WEB SERVER sketch which will allow us to monitor the camera feed via a web app. The Next Level of this project is to make a ROCK SOLID […]

Wizard Chess

Wizard Chess

Wizard Chess is a form of chess originally invented by J.K. Rowling in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. The characters give verbal commands to the chess pieces and they move by magic. Seems impossible right? Not anymore! Using an Arduino Uno, along with an XY plotter, Wizard Chess can be recreated in real life! You […]

A Shuttle Mission Control Mock Up for Kids

A Shuttle Mission Control Mock-Up for Kids

A Mission Control Center for children was constructed to manage a pretend launch of the space shuttle. I wanted to play-out the make believe mission with nothing but LED lamps to tell the story; both 7-segment displays and graphic displays with LED lights strategically mounted. I tried to keep it straight forward and sequential with […]

Kids Control Panel With Arduinos

Kid’s Control Panel With Arduino(s)

Since getting an Arduino starter kit I was wondering what to make of all those fancy buttons, shiny LEDs, touchscreen LCD displays… I was thinking about weather station, but I was told that in the maker’s world, weather station is like a “Hello World” app. Like playing “Stairway to Heaven” in a guitar store. Then, when […]

Measuring the Boiling Point of Liquefied Gases Using Arduino and PhyPhox

Measuring the Boiling Point of Liquefied Gases Using Arduino and PhyPhox

A substance that is in a liquid state is constantly evaporating or passing into the gaseous state (depending on the intermolecular forces and temperature). The pressure exerted by the gaseous molecules produced in this process is known as vapor pressure. The vapor pressure depends on the temperature in such a way that at higher temperature […]

Glowing Garden

Glowing Garden

For this project, I wanted to create an interaction that would seamlessly combine the natural and the digital to make a cohesive project which sparked wondering and curiosity. I was inspired by the idea of a fairy garden and wanted to make a plant that would produce the same enchantment. I planned this project around […]
