In this article I describe how we made an hour glass with leds as the sand. We were always interested in making something that visually flows like sand and decided to use an hour glass to start. The movement is not completely fluid given the resolution of the amount of pixels, but it does resemble […]

Several months ago I got a really good deal on a large 32×32 RGB LED matrix display. It matches up with the wiring interface shown on the Adafruit website for their 32×32 display so I did the usual testing with their libraries. Recently I was looking for some ideas for projects for this display. One […]

Once I failed to control the drone because of the wind so I want to measure the wind speed to know whether it is suitable for the drone flight in the wild. So I am thinking of how to measure the wind speed in the field I can check it anywhere remotely. Thanks to Arduino […]

A Chaser Circuit consists of a clocked IC or other electronic unit like an Arduino that drives an array of LEDs in such a way that individual LEDs (or small groups of LEDs) turn on and off in a predetermined and repeating sequence, thus producing a visually attractive display in which one or more ripples […]

I realized a PCB remote control in order to control remote controlled objects and more particularly an airplane. This one works in wifi 2.4Ghz, has an Oled screen, joysticks, potentiometers, buttons/switches and a pipe to select the device to control. I made a form of controller resembling the famous “Star Wars” spaceship, hence my dedication […]

If you are like me, there are many nostalgic things that bring me back to my youth. Tom Sutton, username yakis on thingiverse, created this 3d model of Metroid’s Samus in morph ball form. It has room inside for LEDs to light it up. I have enhanced mine with a vibration sensor, neo pixel lights […]

Continuing with ATtiny85, today I’d like to share how to build a music spectrum analyzer on 16×20 RGB led matrix. The music signal FFT transformation and LED Bit Angle Modulation are all carried out by one DigiSpark ATtiny85. Please watch my video below: Step 1: Things We Need Main components are as follows: 1 x DigiSpark ATtiny85. […]

This project was completed by Alexandra Pittiglio & Christelle Feghali for our Computational Design and Digital Fabrication ‘Useless Machine’ Project, Semester 2, ITECH M.Sc Programme ——– We present Plant Bartender, a 2-axis robot that senses and waters in the most inefficient way. This device utilizes soil moisture sensors to identify the thirst levels of multiple […]

When a solid substance is heated the increase in energy manifests itself in the form of an increase in temperature. If the heating rate is constant the temperature increase is also constant as long as there is no change in the structure of the substance. At the time when some kind of transition is initiated […]

In this Instructable, we’re going to be making a Tic Tac Toe or Noughts and Crosses shield for an Arduino that allows you to play against another person or an AI player running on the Arduino. The game board is made up of a 3×3 grid of RGB LEDs that light up green or blue […]
