Every maker at least once make or tries to make RC Car. RC Cars are widely available yet the joy of playing with the one you made yourself can’t be compared with the bought one. So I decided to make a Wireless RC Car with the easiest available material i.e. Cardboard. No need for a […]

Arduino ADK LED Lighting
Have you ever wanted to control electronics with your smartphone? The Arduino ADK (Android Development Kit) is the Arduino Mega with a built in USB host device, ready for your smartphone to be plugged in! We’ll make a simple introductory project with a few LED strips and a relay (to control the high voltages of […]
Marblevator, Perpetual?, Cradle.
“Marblevator, Pertual?, Cradle” like “Marblevator, Perpetual?, Version 2” and “Marblevator, Perpetual?” is not perpetual at all as it is simply another illusion. And like its predecessors it is a very quiet illusion with the only noise being that of the marble as it rolls back and forth in the cradle. I’ve incorporated an Arduino Nano […]
Pixel Drop Ceiling using Arduino
In our living room we have a small patch of drop ceiling right in the middle of the room, basically a giant piece of duct tape to cover up bad carpentry. It was constantly getting water damage from what looks like a giant hole in the ceiling above the drop tiles. After roughly a year […]
Audio Visualizer With an LCD Display
People love listening to music. It is as they say, music reflects our mood. And it is a spectacle to see music become ‘alive’ right before our eyes. Well, that’s what music visualization does. According to Wikipedia, music visualization “generates animated imagery based on a piece of music. The imagery is generated and rendered in […]
Push-button using an Arduino
Pushbuttons or switches connect two points in a circuit when you press them. This example turns on the built-in LED on pin 13 when you press the button. image developed using Fritzing. For more circuit examples, see the Fritzing project page Connect three wires to the Arduino board. The first two, red and black, connect to the […]
Soft Squares – Chisel Away With Arduino in Unity
For this project, I created an Arduino-powered chisel which can communicate with a game I made in Unity, Soft Squares. You can paint over a 5 x 5 x 5 cube and chip away cubes you don’t need, to create a miniature sculpture of whatever you’d like! You can even add colour to your creations. […]
Create an internet controlled robot using Livebots
Here you will learn how to create an internet controlled robot or other installation using Livebots. Livebots is a project I’m working on which consists of an easy to use website for all the robots that people can interact with through the internet. As an example I will be using a simple Arduino UNO with a LED […]
The “Rare Vogel” Birdhouse Controller
A birdhouse controller for a bird based game, why? I saw this birdhouse in the store and felt instantly inspired! Going from something big and grand with a shortage of time for the school’s deadline to something small and cute. It inspired an entire game around it! It was an interesting project, I learned how […]
Using the Arduino Uno to program ATTINY84-20PU
Using the Arduino Uno to program ATTINY84-20PU (Newark item # 68T3783). This Instructable shows how to use the Arduino platform to work with physically smaller processors, such as the ATtiny84 (84/44/24), ATtiny85 (85/45/25), and ATtiny2313. This example is specifically for the ATtiny84-20PU processor (Newark item # 68T3783) but can be adapted for the others boards […]
