Instructions on creating an Internet Radio Streamer with the ESP32 and the MP3 decoder “VS1053”. Numerous tutorials exist for a device like this online (many of which provided the information and ideas I needed), but I decided to share my own version as I had to find unique solutions to meet the requirements of my […]
Ever asked how to control any device from any place in the world? In this tutorial, we’ll learn how to control things wirelessly over WiFi. Story Introduction Today, we will build a device that connects to the internet and allow the user to control his/her home remotely over wifi. We will use the Arduino board(any […]
A while ago, I made the ESP32 version of Midbar which later evolved into a multi-user Cipherbox. While developing the Cipherbox, I realized that even the Lite version of it might be too expensive and too redundant for some people, so I “resurrected” the single-user Midbar project and made an ESP8266 version of it. The purpose of Midbar is to […]
Lumileds has added news LEDs to its Luxeon IR Domed Line with a significant increase in both DC and pulse drive current–up to 1.5A and 5.0A, respectively. The new emitters deliver radiant power of 1350mW at 850nm wavelength (slightly visible) or 1450mW at 940nm (invisible or covert IR). These new IR LEDs are engineered to […]
In ancient times people used Hourglass to measure the passage of time. Hourglass is a simple device that consists of two glass bulbs that are connected vertically with a narrow neg and that allows the flow of sand or fluid from top to bottom. most of the time the flow duration is about one hour […]
I have toyed with the idea of building a clock for sometime and my sister had a big birthday coming up so I decided that this was a great opportunity to build a clock for her as a gift. My sister has a PhD in science and works as a science educator so I decided […]
Build Your Own Arduino Using affordable components and a solderless breadboard, you have the ability to swiftly and effortlessly construct your own Arduino setup. This approach proves invaluable for prototyping new design concepts or when avoiding the need to dismantle existing setups for Arduino usage. The following example illustrates the process of connecting components on […]
Upon acquiring my initial Arduino board, my immediate aspiration was to administer it through a web interface. However, lacking an Ethernet shield initially, I deferred the idea. Recently, spurred by curiosity, I procured a shield from Amazon to explore the possibilities. The foremost step entailed drafting a basic sketch capable of rendering a web page […]
Arduino is an open-source hardware platform consisting of a board equipped with a microcontroller and a development environment (software). It is specifically crafted to simplify the integration of electronics into diverse interdisciplinary projects. Today, we’ll delve into understanding Arduino and its defining features. Arduino stands out as one of the most sought-after microcontroller platforms among […]
In this project, we will establish I2C communication between two Arduino boards. Additionally, we will revisit some fundamentals of Arduino I2C communication, serving as a concise recap of what we’ve previously covered in detail in an earlier Arduino I2C Tutorial. We will explore all three potential scenarios for I2C communication and develop three distinct Arduino […]
