When I got my Arduino protoshield from sparkfun, I wanted to make something cool with it. And since I had seen a few Theremin projects before, and already thought about making some, I finally made one, using the Parallax PING sonar sensor. Here are some informations about how I made it. You can see all […]

Mouse Control With Pushbuttons using arduino
Overview In this lab, you’ll build an alternative computer mouse using an Arduino Leonardo using pushbuttons to move the mouse left, right, up and down. You’ll see the difference between reading a digital input continually and reading for a change of state. (:toc Table of Contents:) Parts For this lab you will need the following […]
Xbox 360 RF module + Arduino
I was going to make a huge write-up on this, but I can’t be bothered right now. I’ll probably do something about it later. Until then, have an Arduino sketch. If you don’t know what you’re doing with it then chances are you don’t have an Arduino, in which case the file is useless to […]
Robotic Talking Turret using Arduino
Here I will show you an overview on how to make a robotic talking turret, loosely based off of the turrets from the popular game, Portal. This instructable should help anyone wanting to do an animatronics project. For more detailed pictures, go to: http://razorconcepts.net/turret.html This project require some experience with tools, electronic circuits, and maybe […]
New Textiles 2012 using arduino
Twist Switch by ttseng Through the action of twisting, swatches of conductive fabric are folded in upon each other, completing a circuit that then turns on LEDs. On each face of stretched spandex are swatches of conductive fabric. Before choosing which swatches to designate as either + or -, I tested the twisting motion to […]
Demystifying 4 pin RGB LEDS (Radio Shack 276-0028) using arduino
RGB LEDs are fairly useful in projects allowing for a wide range of color from a single unit. However they can be a pain in the neck to work with and they too often come with little or no documentation. I searched for some time to find a common resource on them and this Instructable […]
Connect the arduino and make the speaker play
To make your Arduino to play a melody you need thes accessories. One 5 ohm speaker One Arduino uno board One Push buttom One 10 kohm resistor 8 leds And a lot of core wires Step 1: Connect the arduino and make the speaker play This is how i connected the arduino to the white connection […]
Team 1 Final Project Report & Video: Arduino Video Game System using arduino
Introduction We built a video game system that can play either Snakes or Pong. We saw a project called “Arduino Pong” and wanted to recreate it with our own twist. Description Parts Needed: Arduino Uno Video Game Shield 2 LEDs 2 non-latching push buttons 2 Wii Nun Chucks Plenty of Wires Resistors Plexiglas and plywood […]
Arduino Morse Code Flaher using arduino
I am a big fan of programming but I like to keep it down to 555 timer but when it comes to complex functions like flashing a LED in a certain pattern programming is necessary.One day while surfing through the I came across something known as Morse code.I decided to read it and found it totally awesome.I tried to make […]
How To Make A Arduino Robotic Arm
In this instructable I will show you how to make a simple robotic arm controlled by 4 servos , 2 analog joysticks, and an Arduino UNO. It is very similar to my “2 Servos + Thumbstick” instructable. This tutorial is in particular to help out another Arduino user; “RobotZee”. I will guide you step by […]
