FTDI has announced its commitment to supporting the Android Open Accessories initiative, thus allowing engineers to realize exciting new system designs that are compatible with tablets and smartphones utilising the highly popular Android operating system. “FTDI is very excited about the new Android Open Accessories initiative and in response has decided to provide support for […]
Modified BaleScoop(for picking hay bales out of the field) from manual levers to arduino controlled functions. This eliminates the need for 3 sets of hydraulic hoses to only one set and operator can focus more on where they are going rather then controling the implement. This is set up for a “Field Mode” and a Travel Mode”, and has
INTRODUCTION : The development of high performance motor drives is very important in industrial as well as other purpose applications. Generally all high performance motor drives use quadrature encoders and PID control because of its simplicity and precise control. The quadrature encoder acts as a feedback from the motor, it is connected to the microcontroller
In this tutorial we make an Arduino-compatible board that holds the microcontroller in a ZIF socket. Updated 18/03/2013 Today we are going to make a different type of Arduino-compatible board, one that has a ZIF (“zero insertion force”) socket. Our reason for making this is simple – now and again you may need to program
Since you lacked the USB interface in your own Arduino board, it becomes necessary to use a homemade/ready-made USB to Serial Converter Module as an efficient and economical solution. Inexpensive and easy-to-use USB to Serial Converter modules are now widely available, such as one shown here. With the help of this little module you can

Simple Remote Data Plotting using Android / Arduino / pfodApp This Instructable shows you how to plot Arduino sensor data on your Android mobile and capture it for later downloading to your computer. These instructions are also avaliable at www.pfod.com.au No Android programming is required and very little the Arduino programming is needed. It is

A frequency generator is a very handy device in electronic design, development, testing and trouble shooting. It is such a kind of device which can generate the required frequencies which can be then applied directly to the target device for testing it. There are frequency generators which can generate the required waveform like sine wave,

This is a fun speaker timer I made for some upcoming conferences. It uses a 4-digit charlieplexed LED (pseudo 7-segment) display and is driven by a AVR ATMega328 or an Arduino. It allows a default time to be set, can be paused, and will put out 5 Volts on several IO lines when 10, 5,

In this project, we will go over how to build a vibration detector circuit.This is a circuit which can detect and measure flex, touch, vibration, and shock.The sensor we will use to detect these movements is a piezo vibration sensor from Measuremenet Specialists (MEAS). The sensors are a thin strip of piezoelectric material with a

This tutorial will describe a way of controlling an iPod remote, and thus, an easy way of getting some music and sound out of your Arduino project. The remote we used was an unofficial remote I found on the worldwide auction site for around 10 USD, an opto-isolator can be found in your local electronics
