Talking Darth Vader Binary Clock
Posted on: 20 Mar 2015
In this instructable I am going to show you, how to paint a black and white image of Darth Vader and bring it to life by adding a binary clock and making it talk. If you are not a big Star Wars fan, don’t worry you can use the electronics and code to make any […]
Robot shield for Arduino Board
Posted on: 19 Mar 2015
The idea behind this post is to bring together some robot designs and trasform them in a new device with new hardware and standard software (arduino of course) and so easier to use. These robots have three things in common: a mechanical structure, the hardware and the software. While the mechanical part is necessarily different, […]
Small DC Motor Pwm Speed Controller
Posted on: 19 Mar 2015
The photo depicts a speed controller, wired on a breadboard which allows you to vary the resistance in the potentiometer in order to, in effect, control the speed of the small DC motor. The big picture problem is creating an efficient PWM motor controller that allows for an analog variance of voltage across the motor. […]
Capacitive Sensing + Open Frameworks + SPACEBREW
Posted on: 19 Mar 2015
This is a step-by-step on how to connect Arduino to OpenFrameworks using Spacebrew. More specifically our project focuses on the awesomeness of Capacitive Sensing to alter OF projections to create an awesome tactile experience! What the process will involve: Arduino -> Processing -> SpaceBrew -> OpenFrameworks What you will need: Software: Arduino Processing OpenFrameworks Capsense […]
Arduino Personal Soundtrack Hoodie
Posted on: 18 Mar 2015
This was inspired by Raj’s personal soundtrack shirt in Big Bang Theory S3, E16, “The Excelsior Acquisition”. You can now buy them online but it’s much more fun to make your own and it’s possible now that buttons designed for use in electronic clothing are available from Connectedwear. Nine of the buttons on the Connectedwear […]
Charliexplexed LED Clock – Arduino
Posted on: 18 Mar 2015
One of my clocks stopped working – and it happened to be a clock my wife likes a lot. Went to the repair shop and the guy said that he didn’t have the spare parts and could not repair this. So – I thought – why not build an LED clock – I had tons […]
Arduino Cat Detector SD Card Logger
Posted on: 17 Mar 2015
I used: an Arduino Uno a Parallax PIR Motion Sensor and a Seeed Studio SD Card Shield Arduino, shield, sd card, logging shield, storage, logger Check out This instructable on PIRs in case you didn’t know what it is: http://www.instructables.com/id/PIR-Motion-Sensor-Tutorial/ Step 1: Connect your PIR Sensor Hook up the PIR Sensor Ground pin to Ground […]
Physical Computing with Arduino
Posted on: 17 Mar 2015
Digital pins 1-7 are generally used as input pins and Digital pins 8-13 are used as output pins. Digital pins 9-11 can be used as analog output pins. That is, they can send they can send signal of variable voltage. 5/15/2012 Getting started with Arduino. I have skimmed through the “Getting Started with Arduino” and […]
Pi…In A Single Digit using an Arduino
Posted on: 17 Mar 2015
Ah yes. It has been a long time since I posted an Instructable…well here goes: It has been a while since I have been otivated to write an ‘ible. During this idle time I have been writing, rewriting and editing code as well as designing lots of PCBs. For my new ible which I have […]
Printer to vinyl cutter hack
Posted on: 17 Mar 2015
Vinyl cutters are used in the sign writing industry, and are great for making stickers, signs and graphics. I would like to thank Instructable members silverjimmy and Groover for their fantastic laser cutter instructables, without which I would not of been able to complete this project. My idea is to take an old printer and […]
