edit: Wow, this won an awesome prize! Very many thanks guys! Charlieplexing (http://wealoneonearth.blogspot.nl/2013/03/design-note-charlieplexing-led-matrices.html) is a powerful method for driving a large number of LEDs from a relatively small amount of IO pin and without using any extra components. The technique makes use of the fact that a LED will only let current through in one […]

Here you can find out how to make you very own n as made for the exhibition www.laplandscape.co.uk curated by art/design group Lapland. More images can be seen at flickr This exhibition runs from Wednesday 26 November – Friday 12 December 2008 inclusive, and had a private view on Tuesday 25 November. Each participant has […]

Remote control, especially when this no ethernet or Wifi in the outdoor, has been a very profound things in the past. When I was a child, I always image that I have an equipment which can control all home appliances. Now, this becomes a reality,with Arduino and GPRS modules and some other related modules. And, […]

Important notice: Final (i.e. relevant) version is at the last step of this instructable. If you want to build a Simon, that is the recommended version. The rest of the steps show how this evolved from a bare-bones game for LED 13 and Serial (i.e. zero components) until my mail order came through 😉 Each […]

This is a very low cost and simple Arduino GSM and GPRS shield. We use the module SIMCom SIM900 . It’s the cheaper module now available in the market. The module is not simple to mount by an hobbyst, so we use the Breakboard TDGGSM_900 that we presented here . You can buy the GSM […]

Tired of having to find the dog food to feed the dog? Tired of having to get up early so your dog doesn’t attack you for his food? Are just plain lazy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this instructable is for you. Powered by the intelligent Arduino, this gadget will automatically […]

Blank space, what to do?, what to do? Our hackerspace has a blank brick wall above the fireplace. It’s been a cold winter so we’ve had a fair number of fires, but there is just something wrong about a blank brick wall. Well in this project I’ll document how to create an animated, Arduino controlled, […]

What is the OctoSynth you may ask? The octosynth is a polyphonic synthesizer that is able to produce eight Pulse Width Modulated tones that form together a musical scale. In English terms, it is a 8 key electronic organ that can play more than one tone at once but only one scale. Special thanks to […]

The Arduino source. The python source. Schematic diagram of the Arduino to LED cube connections. LED cube controlled by an Arduino board, that can receive commands over serial. There are only 13 available pins for 27 LEDs, so I had to play some tricks to get be able to access each individual LED. The program […]
