This Instructables will teach you how to make the alternative controller to play my short game, Grogu Eats, on itch.io! This Instructables will be very basic up until the soldering. If you want to make this project, I recommend looking at soldering tutorials when you get to that step. Supplies Baby Yoda plush. I used this one, […]

How to Display Images on OLED Using Arduino
Hello there fellow learners, in one of our previous blog on OLED, we learnt how to wire and code OLED. We also learnt to display simple text using Arduino code. So today in this blog, we will learn how we can use images and custom bitmaps to display logos or anything we want using our 0.96” OLED […]
Arduino led pendulum
Step 2: Putting up the wires Strip both ends of wires -insert one end of each wire into sockets numbered -Gnd(black wire in my case)-this will be the common ground connection – 13 (green wire in my case) – 12 (yellow wire in my case) – ~11 (orange wire in my case) – ~10 (red wire […]
Arduino Text I/O for Real World Applications
Quick Start This tutorial will take you through the steps you can use to successfully process Real World text I/OYou should avoid using any Serial methods in your loop() code and any code it calls. (see below) Install the SafeString library (V3+) from the Arduino Library Manager or the zip file For text input use a SafeStringReader – a non-blocking […]
Photoresistor Arduino Midi Theremin
I call it the C041D-2020 I made this during the second COVID lockdown in UK, from ideas borrowed from about 5 other projects I found here on Instructables and also on Youtube. As you can see from the video it makes acidy noises by covering the photo resistors, or adding lighter to the photo resistors. The […]
Adafruit Flora NeoPixel LED Ring Headphone mod
Wearable Arduino mod for your headphones. Non-invasive procedure for headphones that don’t have room inside the drivers or you don’t want to hack apart your high end cans. Adafruit just put out a tutorial for adding pattern blinking LED lights to headphones. This instructable takes it one step further. This project is really the Adafruit Ampli-tie project morphed […]
How to Create an Animatronic Dragon Model
ROOAAARR!! Before you learn how to train your dragon, you need to first obtain a dragon, and there’s no better way than to make it yourself! This guide will explain the steps I took to create a scale model animatronic dragon, and in doing so I hope you might also learn how to follow similar […]
Candy Tossin Coffin using an Arduino
When you flip a switch, the coffin lid opens and a smiling red eyed ghost arises. The ghost flings some candy, pushes the switch back and returns to rest. Then, the coffin lid closes. Step 1: Major parts include: 4.5 rpm motor #155821 Jameco.com 1.8 rpm motor #176050 Jameco.com Two shaft couplers #162270 Jameco.com Servo […]
The BookMinder: a Bookend Meeting Countdown Device
Since more and more of us are working from home, we are all increasing our engagement with our screens (looking at you, Zoom meetings). For myself, when I am taking a break from my computer screen I end up doing other things in my apartment and a large amount of the time, I don’t keep […]
Arduino Controlled Solar Fountain
A fountain can make a nice decorative fixture for your garden. But it isn’t always easy to run a power cord out to where you want it. So I decided to run it on solar power. The system is controlled by an Arduino. This allows you to save energy by programming when the fountain will […]
