This project will add tweeting capabilities to the GE 45142 Choice-Alert Wireless Control Center Alarm system. The alarm system allows you to connect up to 16 different sensors across 4 zones and with the addition of the Arduino powered Alarming Tweet you can enable it to keep you informed of it’s status anytime anywhere. Originally […]

Caveat Emptor: (I don’t want to put you off building one but I also don’t want you to be disappointed.)  This Instructable is now 2 years old.  Many of the parts it uses are out of date (there’s no drop-in replacement for the now-discontinued gyro, for example) and I’ve had reports that the code is […]

The LASER Maze was our Processing and Arduino powered garage haunted house for 2011. A monitor sits outside of the garage, displaying “PRESS START.” After the button is pressed, an intro video plays that instructs you to dodge the lasers and get your candy in the back of the garage. Whenever you break a laser […]

Building upon our last tutorial, which taught you how to build a muscle sensor, we’ve decided to give you a project that really showcases the power of our muscle (EMG) sensors. Advancer Technologies’ “USB Biofeedback Game Controller” harnesses the power of electromyography to allow players to directly control video games with their muscles. At the core […]

Outcomes of this project: Robot with 5 joints Arduino Code which is expandable Control and wiring setup Step 1: Parts Parts used: 5 mini […]

I’ve been playing with the DRA818V modules that have been making quite a stir in the amateur radio world at the moment. I haven’t gotten one on a spectrum analyzer yet, but I have reason to believe that it will require a low pass filter to be RF legal. I’ll write more about that once I get […]

Thanks LifeHacker and HackADay for featuring my post. If anyone has questions please leave a comment below and I’ll be happy to help! Have you ever wanted to wirelessly control power outlets from your phone? You could buy a Belkin WeMo Switch for over $40 for 1 outlet or build your own with 5 outlets for under $35 if you already own a Raspberry Pi. Hopefully […]

improvise + harmonize + customize The airmonica is a easy-to-learn tweakable musical instrument that you can use to perform harmonic musical ditties by accompanying a tri-tone arpeggiator. There are endless opportunities to expand the airmonica in any way that will make it your your own custom instrument. The airmonica consists of three parts: 1. a […]

In short: I developed a portable, battery powered device that sounds an alarm when your bag or purse is moved. Once armed, can only be turned off by your secret code. The device is built off an Arduino compatible Trinket Pro, using an off-the-shelf project box with PCB. –——————————————————————— Problem I had: When I go […]

Hello all! This is a quick guide on how to use an Arduino© to control whether a cooling fan and a heater is turned on depending on the detected temperature from a TC74 Arduino sensor. This is for a final project for an Electronics class I am currently taking, though I came into this project […]
