In this post I’d like to describe you a project I’m working on that consists of connecting an Android development board to one (or more) Arduino slave(s) using modbus protocol and rs485. Even though the idea of this project could be applied in many fields, I chose to contextualize it in a typical smart home […]
Dimmer With MOSFET This circuit shows that dimmers intended for use at mains voltage do not always have to contain a triac. Here, a MOSFET (BUZ41A, 500 V/4.5A) in a diode bridge is used to control the voltage across an incandescent bulb with pulse-width modulation (PWM). The power supply voltage for driving the gate is […]
This is a simple guide on how to make a Ultrasonic sensor arduino mega with code, an HC-SRO4 Ultrasonic Sensor, a Buzzer, and some leds. The ultimate goal of this tutorial is to use the buzzer and LEDs to display how far the object is from the ultrasonic sensor. Step 1: Materials Needed The Materials […]
Arduino temperature display I’ve had an Arduino-based weather station since June 2009, but one problem with it has been that there hasn’t been any easy way to display the data in real time without going to the database (or the raw import files) to see what the latest observations were. I wrote a quick web […]
down vote favorite I have a minor issue with my ECG. When I poke at the leads, I get a reading. But when I hold the leads or place it near my heart, I don’t get anything. I’m pretty sure this is hardware related, but I don’t want to completely rule out a potential software […]
1. Overview The Wixel shield seamlessly enables a wireless link (with a typical range of ~50 feet) to replace your Arduino’s USB interface, which means you can use the standard Arduino computer software to: wirelessly program the Arduino (this feature is not available with the Arduino Leonardo or the A-Star 32U4 Prime). wirelessly debug sketches with […]
Project Summary: This project uses ULN2003 chip to drive. The working voltage is DC5V. It is widely used on ATM machine, inkjet printer,cutting plotter, fax machine,spraying equipment, medical instruments and equipments, PC peripheral, and USB Mass Storage ,precise instrument,industrial control system,office automation,robot areas,etc. Bill of Materials: 1.Arduino UNO V3.0 R3 Board or Compatible Arduino 2.1602A HD44780 […]
Today I want to make a LED Scroll Bar as the above picture showed. Ten LED strips can flash in different effects by using a control board. Required Components LED strip, Arduino Nano, Dupont line and a control board. So, how to make a LED Scroll Bar? Step 1) Cut the LED strip into 10 […]
This video shows the Traffic light and pedestrian crossing I’ve implemented with an Arduino. It’s a reproduction of the crossing near my home, timings taken from a video of it. Incidentally, I produced the diagrams for this using a product called Fritzing. It’s a nifty piece of software that allows you to draw a breadboarded version of […]
Water is basic need in every one’s life. Saving and proper usage of water is very important. Here is an easy project which will give the alarm when there is rain, so that we can make some actions and save the rain water. As a result, we can increase the water levels of underground water […]
