Have you ever wanted to make a line following robot but the infrared sensors were too expensive for you? Do you want to upgrade the robot in my other instructable? Well this instructable comes in two stages, Stage 1 is the prototyping stage, where you build the circuit on the bread board and debug it […]

Introduction: Okay, I cheated. Any similarities between previous Instructables uploaded by me and the graphics, pictures, text and / or programming code is purely intentional. It certainly made putting this one together a whole lot easier. This Instructable is my Arduino version of the Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock game devised by Sam Kass and […]

This is a funny project that makes our plants “talk” to us. It’s very simple and you can create it in few hours. We use a sensor to read the soil moisture of our plant and a led matrix to dislay how the plant “feel”. You can use an ATtiny85 as a microcontroller. Step 1: […]

INTRODUCTION In the guide, I will explain how I managed to send data back and forth between a PC and Arduino via a cheap Bluetooth HC-05 transceiver, which can be found for less than $10 on ebay with the breakout board. The version I have used in this project does not have a breakout board so […]

How often do you ever forget to feed your fish? Well, for me I don’t forget that much. I just couldn’t go out town for a couple of days and also be ridiculous if I should bring my tank along. When I won a Sparkfun RedBoard from Sparkfun Analogy Contest, this was the first project […]

Almost inevitably, when I try to climb the same route I’ll forget exactly what sequence of holds they used and end up following a slightly different path. Even when I remember exactly which course to follow, I’ll still wonder whether I’m doing it as quickly as the previous climber. Yes, I know that skill in […]

This was originally going to be a tutorial on how to hook up a pumpkin to the internet so that the lights inside it could be controlled via twitter, text message, motion or more. To get started I carved a pumpkin for the first time in 20 years. Needless to say I was proud of […]

Tested ExtraCore boards and kits are now available for sale from Rugged Circuits. What is it? This Instructable will give you all the files and information you need to make your own Arduino Compatible in small surface mount package. It requires a board manufactured to about 9mil precision. I recommend having the board manufactured at […]

Description This little project makes a great ornament to hang in your window at Christmas time. It is a 20″ wide star with 50 “neopixel” leds around the perimeter. Each led is individually addressable and it is controlled by an arduino device which can be programmed to sequence the leds in various patterns. Depending on […]

Using the Mouse library, you can controls a computer’s onscreen cursor with an Arduino Leonardo, Micro, or Due. This particular example uses a pushbutton to turn on and off mouse control with a joystick. Cursor movement from the Arduino is always relative. So every time the analog input is read, the cursor’s position is updated […]
