Today, I’m going to show you how to make an Arduino motor shield (driver) at a low cost. It works splendidly, its posses almost all the characteristics of the original Arduino motor shield. It’s almost considered as a clone. The original Arduino motor shield has the same motor driver chip (L298), the only difference with it, […]

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 […]

Designing a Spinning/Rotating LED Display In this project, we will demonstrate how to create a basic “Rotating LED Display” (commonly referred to as Spinning LED Display) using Arduino. The idea to start this project sparked in my mind after I noticed a product in the market that featured a clearly visible text message on a […]

How Arduino tone() actually behaves: square-wave frequency, optional duration, nonblocking calls, single-tone limits and timer/PWM interference to plan around.

A protocol-first checklist for USB to GPIB bridging: bus roles, addressing, command framing, and where a serial bridge differs from a VISA-native interface.

I will demonstrate how to create a 7 segment display using LEDs. Use Arduino in conjunction to make countdown timers, basic text displays, and additional features. I enjoy creating unique projects. I looked through all of instructables and couldn’t find anything similar to this. Actually, I looked on Google but found no results. This idea […]

You may be wondering, what is a PIP-Boy exactly? If you don’t know, a PIP-Boy is a tool used by the main character in the well-liked Fallout video game series for navigating, detecting radiation, storing/playing data, and managing inventory. As a huge enthusiast of the franchise, I chose to create my own version, but not […]

The affordable MP3 VS1053 codec processor available on aliexpress.com is said to have the ability to decode different music formats such as Ogg Vorbis/MP3/AAC/WMA/MIDI audio. VS1053 can also record in Ogg Vobis file, but the available guidance online is mainly for proprietary boards or ESP32-IDF, which is not recommended due to the amount of coding […]

Greetings to all, we are glad to have you back on our website! This time around, we are showcasing a superb project: the automated plant watering system. With this project, we use technology to help plants grow on their own. After one month of being put into action, we noticed significant advancements in the growth […]
