It’s not often that I finish the various small projects I undertake. Tesla coils, mass spectrometers, automated tomato plant watering systems, homebrew heaters have all been conceived and sometimes parts bought and assembled with some even making it as far as working. This project however made it all the way to finished. Torchy Oriole Bike […]

Often government data sets available to us online are taken from major nearby metropolitan areas or infrastructural centers. With an easy to follow introduction to new softwares and technologies the “urban sensor kit” allows anyone to obtain location specific information and share that information with a growing community of designers, researchers, and many others. This […]

The tutorials we used. http://www.instructables.com/id/Touche-for-Arduino-Advanced-touch-sensing/?ALLSTEPS http://www.instructables.com/id/Calm-Relaxed-Interaction-Plant-Plus-1/?ALLSTEPS Download arduino software and the processing software. From their respective websites. Processing.org arduino.cc   All of the supplies we used: (we didn’t include the water bottle as a sensing object, and used an inductor instead of a coil) Arduino Usb cable Shield pin headers Resister: 10k, 1MOmh, 3,3k Capacitor: […]

Everybody wants to know how many pageviews your own website has. But see what’s happening you need some analytics code and stuff like this. I wanted to be connected to the wold when I’m sitting on my couch so I connected my Lucky Cat to the internet. Whenever someone visits a page on my website […]

Its back, with new features in v2.0: Facebook integration – Facebook registration Page to track and graph drink consumption Touchscreen with gesture support RFID user login – sync with Facebook profile photo SQL drink database […]

PORTLAND, Ore. — A new world record has been set in wireless data transmission rates — 40 gigabits per second, which is over 40-times faster than the ceiling for Long Term Evolution (LTE) Advanced of 1 Gbit/s. The breakthrough was announced at the Compound Semiconductor Integrated Circuits Symposium conference in San Diego on Oct. 22, […]

In this lab you will be using a program to enter a schematic and lay out a printed circuit board (PCB) that will then be manufactured.  At this point of the semester you don’t know enough to design your own circuit, so I am giving you one that we will use again later in the […]

This Instructable will demonstrate how to make a remotely activated sound file player. It uses an Electric Imp, an Adafruit Wave shield and an Arduino Uno The Electric Imp enables you to quickly connect devices (including arduinos) to the internet through your Wifi network. The Adafruit Wave shield makes it simple to play audio files […]

Description After finishing my last project – “Simple LC meter“, there were some discussions in the forum I am a member of, that ability to measure electrolytic capacitors would be very useful in this type of device. I searched the Web and found a very cute project named LCM3 on this Hungarian site: hobbielektronika.hu . […]
