In this Arduino project, you will build a small relay shield from stripboard. The shield can have one or two relays fitted to it. Connect the Arduino and relay shield to your PC via a USB cable. Download the PC software and use it to switch anything on and off that is attached to the […]

Introduction This is my second article relating to the Arduino Microprocessor Platform. The first one was a simple implementation of the SIMON game using the Arduino. The article can be found here. For an introduction to the Arduino Hardware, see jeffb42‘s excellent articles, as there is no point in repeating things here. What Is This […]

This is Open Source Home Automation Project based on Arduino Uno and Arduino Wiznet based Ethernet shield. How Does it Work The main brain for this project is Arduino UNO Board along with Arduino Ethernet Shield to give it a wireless connectivity.Arduino runs a code to control a Relay board according to the input and […]

This article and circuit diagram show how to connect a buzzer to an Arduino when the buzzer operates at a different voltage to the Arduino. The buzzer may operate at 9V, 12V or some other voltage. Arduinos such as the Arduino Uno operate from 5V. All the voltages referred to here are D.C. voltages (direct […]

I  did the following steps: 1) Hardware: Connect the MLX90614 (refer to the datasheet) as follows: Pin 1 on MLX (SCL) connect to ANALOG pin 5 on Arduino Pin 2 on MLX (SDA) connect to ANALOG pin 4 on Arduino Pin 3 on MLX (VDD) connect to 3.3V on Arduino Pin 4 on MLX (VSS) […]

Steps On the breadboard, build two bi-directional motor control circuits (also known as “H-bridge”) circuits. These circuits will control the two DC motors that drive the wheels. Each circuit will have two wires from the Arduino (one for forward, one for backward) to control the circuit, and two wires from the single DC motor that […]

Topics: Overview Hardware A Basic Schematic Diagram Resistors Reading Resistor Values Putting it Together Trying it out! More on Resistors and LEDs Software Comments Variables Procedures References Project 1.Overview As mentioned earlier, Arduino consists of two major parts: the hardware (the Arduino board) and the Software (the IDE). The advantage of using the Arduino is […]

This circuit is designed for tracking the location of vehicles. Most oftracking systems are made by using GPS. This is very simple and cheap. Tracking systems are mostly used by fleet operators for tracking a vehicle location, routing and others. This is a very good method for preventing our vehicles from stolen. This tracking system […]

This project describes how you can build a mobile real time GPS tracker with integrated Google Maps. I began this project mainly to see if I can integrate all the different pieces of hardware and software to make a workable solution, and it took some time, but finally when everything was said and done, it […]

UPDATES  October 30, 2013 – 7PM (GMT+2) The new official name for this app is ArduDroid and it can be installed from Google Play. I changed the name to avoid a naming conflict with another app.   September 15, 2013: I Have won a Nexus 7 tablet for this project part of a competition held […]
