One quick fore note: this is my first Instructable and my first large Arduino project, so if you see any stupid errors or have an idea of how things could be done better, then please let me know. Now that that’s out of the way I’ll begin, I started designing this around September last year as my A2 […]
My purpose for this project was to take a knot and “show” its construction by tracing its path. It was only through happenstance that I discovered my chosen medium (2 metres of NeoPixel LED lights) fit so well with Adafruit’s snow globe. You might choose not to knot your lights at all. You could just […]
This time I’ll show how I used an Arduino to control a relay module with eight channels. Arduino in offers several advantages such as: – Open source; – Easy programming; – You can assemble your own board; – Is supported on various forums on the Internet; – Has several “shields” (facilitates the use of it […]
I made an Arduino quadruped robot “by-hand,” meaning without a kit or a 3D printer. It walks using a “long step” gait, which can be very smooth and natural looking. It didn’t quite come out the way I wanted though. However, to make my robot unique, I had the idea to create a skimming-type motion […]
Time for a follow-up to the Single Button Combination Lock by creating another oddball type of switch/lock. To activate this switch we make use of a Parallax Ping))) Ultrasonic sensor, an Arduino-style board and some other hardware – to make a device that receives a four-number code which is made up of the distance between a hand […]
This project will guide you through the steps to make an Arduino based 360 degree rotating foam ball turret with full joystick wireless control, and first person view camera and headset. This is a moderately complex project for hobbyists looking to try something a little extra. Parts of this project were limited by component availability […]
Build a simple Arduino powered Traffic Light with us! This instructable is meant to walk you through almost every step, but there are a few assumptions. Read over the intro and the first step to make sure you are fully prepared! This is the breadboard version, a more realistic traffic light will be generated soon. […]
This is my first in a series of more advanced Arduino tutorials. Now that we’ve covered the basics in tutorials 1-10 (you have watched them all right!?), it’s time to start pursuing some more complex projects! In this episode, we’ll utilize an SD card shield from cooking-hacks.com to create a datalogger. First, I’ll walk you […]
Hello Everyone!!! In this Instructable I am going to show you how I converted my (Commercial) RC drone that uses an RC radio system into a drone that is controlled by your Arduino using Bluetooth Why would I want to control my drone from an Arduino? I wanted to control my drone from an Arduino […]
This time on the show we continue coverage of Toorcamp 2012 – the American Hacker Camp. This time Darren speaks with Rob Eby about packet radio as an extension of the Internet. Plus what could be better than flexible individually addressable RGB LED strips? %1 controlled by Arduino! All that and more!
