You might remember my first set of lights that I put on my dad’s skates. Well those weren’t bright enough and they were a lot of work because I didn’t know how to make PCBs. In this i’ble I’ll cover how to make your own custom PCBs in under an hour! Keep in mind, if […]
Project Goal The goal of this project is to create a low resolution display of graphical art that interacts with people who are handling it. My basic idea is to create such a “magic box” with a LED matrix on one side. It should be small enough that it can be held by hands. Also, […]
In the past five weeks, we have considered and built three projects, ranging from: optical sensing, electromyography (EMG), and galvanic skin response detection. Initially, our project was using an optical sensor and EMG to detect finger movement for applications, such as: playing piano and Morse code. However, after completing the hardware, due to issues with […]
I found a pressure sensor matrix that we could adapt to a pressure sensor patch on the stomach of the women in labor on this webpage (see below). It gives instructions how to build a pressure sensor by using two pieces of cloth and conductive thread! If I understand it right, you just have to […]
Overview: This instructable will construct a series of custom sensor modules and an Arduino shield. Such modules are available from many different sources, but fans of the Instructables website would probably find satisfaction in making their own. Each module will be a set size of 1.5cm by 2.5cm and employ a three pin connector of […]
Okay so the Title is indeed a bit of a mouthful lol ! Ive been needing to mess around with a desire for MORE Input/Output pins than the Arduino UNO and nowadays the UNO uses an Atmega328 microcontroller, & its limited to only about 20 Input/Output pins 🙁 Well if you’ve been messing around with […]
My kids wanted to have a head controlled mouse for playing Minecraft – they wanted to move their heads and have the field of view move. I decided that was a challenge I couldn’t resist, so I decided to build a movement controlled mouse using an arduino and a gyroscope chip. Components A-Star 32U4 Micro […]
The Arduino Ethernet Shield is a sweet toy!!! Everybody, from the beginner who got their Arduino yesterday and hasn’t slept since, to the hard core pro who learned c as a second language, can learn how to use the Ethernet Shield and have lots of fun with it. Its that awesome! As soon as I […]
Welcome ladies and gents! As an entrepreneur, I’m always looking for great projects to share. Myself and two other classmates recently put together a project for our Master’s of Engineering program in Technical Entrepreneurship, and we’re thrilled to share our vision with you. Remember that old Connect 4 game sitting in your basement/closet/chest/Batcave? You’ve always […]
This is a project I worked on for my electronics class at Pomona College. Thanks to Professor Dwight Whitaker and Tony Grigsby for their help and guidance throughout this project, and credit to Jonathan Wong for the idea for this project! Also, here’s a list of Instructables I looked at for ideas/inspiration while working on […]
