Motor control is becoming the power industry’s fastest changing technology area. The reason for this is the requirement to improve energy efficiency from the millions of motors which are used in our homes, factories and cars. New developments in motor controller design, current sensing and control algorithms will be needed if new and more stringent […]

ButtonHero is a game made on an Arduino that involves the use of buttons, LEDs, wires, and resistors. In this game, you have to hit the corresponding button to the light that is randomly selected before the light changes. You start with 5 lives and missing or being too slow subtracts one life. The high […]

This instructable is a step-by-step assembly guide for the educational colorimeter kit we launched in April 2012 on Kickstarter. Assembly takes from 20-40 minutes. Once assembled the colorimeter can be used in a wide variety of science experiments to measure the absorbance and concentration of a colored solution. The colorimeter kit is an open source […]

I used the Arduino UNO combined with three LumiGeek shields to run lighting. LumiGeek has dedicated shields to support 1 Watt RGB LEDs that require constant current, Addressable RGB LED Strip, and Non-Addressable RGB LED Strip. Step 1: 1 Watt RGB LEDs (2x) I wired these in series and powered them with the 12 Volt […]

Several years ago when I started messing around with Arduino and building my own weather station, I bought a few XBee radio chips with the idea of setting up some more remote sites without having to run wires out to the sensor stations. I spend several frustrating hours trying to get the radios to talk […]

In this instructurable I will expalin and show you how to make a Parallax servo rotate 360º. And againI have search the internet to see tutorials clear enough to make this posible with no luck. Don’t get me wrong they are some how good but not clear. This mod will help you to use the mod servo […]

Cash rules everything around me. C.R.E.A.M. Get the money. Arduinos are showing up everywhere. Even in space. But what about the lowly tip jar? No. Are Arduino projects giving the Wu-Tang Clan the proper respect they deserve? Not even close! Rectification. That’s what this is about. Interactive tipping. Dolla dolla bill y’all. Step 1: Materials […]

Standard Arduino boards use FTDI’s FT232RL to interface with computer’s USB port. Since FT232R is just a USB to UART converter, it is possible to build an Arduino compatible USB interface using other USB to UART chips. One such alternative is Silicon Labs‘ CP2102. I particularly like this USB to UART transceiver because very few […]

The name of our robot is FIER and here is a video of it saying hello to the world. In this instructable, I will try to show you the basic steps to making your own walking robot for the most bang for your buck. You may be asking why did I use balsa wood as […]

The Linux Shell is a command-line interface for controlling the Linux system. Commands entered here can, for instance, install software, manipulate the file system, or access debug messages.   If using Windows, we recommend installing Putty, a program that enables to SSH and establish serial communication. SSH is a widely used protocol for accessing Linux shell […]
