Using an Arduino Uno R3 as a Game Controller
Posted on: 12 Nov 2016
Naturally, the Uno does not natively support keyboard strokes, unlike it’s Leonardo brother. Most of Google will tell you you need to do some firmware workarounds and ATMEGA reprogramming just to get it working and the entire ordeal is a mess. If you’re like me, you’ve found that out just after buying one. Here is […]
Arduino Sew Easy Wearable Shield
Posted on: 12 Nov 2016
Wearable computing, e-textiles, soft circuits or whatever you want to call it, is a growing field of applying technology to garments or accessories like bags, shoes or backpacks. It is a fun and creative challenge which goes beyond just adding LED lights to fabric. For a primer, you must check out the work of Lynne […]
Binary metric clock using Arduino
Posted on: 11 Nov 2016
This is a very odd kind of clock, which can easily be made with simple supplies. To begin the explanation, I would like to say that I have always wanted time to be metric. 5 o’clock would be mid-day, 7:5 would be three quarters (6:00 pm), and so on. This prototype tells deci-days, centi-days, and […]
Hard Disk Clock (HDD Clock with Arduino Uno)
Posted on: 11 Nov 2016
This is a fun project that can be done easily and also cheaply. In this instructable we will explain step by step how to make this beautiful POV clock. Used material: Arduino Uno, RTC modul, ULN 2003, IR diode and IR transistor (used like a sensor, more details in next steps) 4 pushbuttons (for controling […]

Microcontrolled Farm Equipment
Posted on: 09 Nov 2016
Modified BaleScoop(for picking hay bales out of the field) from manual levers to arduino controlled functions. This eliminates the need for 3 sets of hydraulic hoses to only one set and operator can focus more on where they are going rather then controling the implement. This is set up for a “Field Mode” and a Travel Mode”, and has […]
