In this guide I will explain how to use a Windows 8.1 phone, Arduino Uno board, and HC-05 Bluetooth module to build a wireless oscilloscope. The phone application has the critical functions of an oscilloscope, although the bandwidth is a measly 300 Hz. Still, if you want to see squiggly lines on your phone, it […]
This Lazy Old Geek (L.O.G.) loves Arduinos. I have noticed that a lot of sensors, like GPS, LCDs, magnetometers are 3.3Vdc sensors. But the standard Arduinos, Uno, RBBB are 5Vdc modules. So I decided I’m going to make more of my Arduino projects with 3.3Vdc AtMega328s. Now I’ve done this before but will go through
Do you have a habit of leaving notes on the fridge, now take it digital and add an Arduino to it. In this instructable I’m going to show you how to do just that. All you need is an Arduino, an LCD screen and a Bluetooth module to make this and a Android mobile to
his is a preliminary instructable that will take you through the steps I took to get the SR04 ULTRASONIC SENSOR connected and working to the Arduino. It will then be incorporated to my mini environment monitor. Eventually, if it all fits, it will end up in a Startrek toy tricorder casing I found in my

OK, this is not a fully autonomous “get you a beer, open it for you and then tweet about it” robodog (yet 😉 but if you’re itching to get past the blinky lights on a breadboard stage with your Arduino and you’re ten or know somebody that’s ten this might appeal to you. This is
For an upcoming project I needed a pneumatic ram with a closed loop control system so I could position it accurately. Didn’t have the budget for an off the shelf solution, so I bodged one together with an ardunio, a couple air solenoid valves, and a pair of potentiometers. How it works is one potentiometer
An h-bridge is a chip that allows DC motors to be run versatile, with bidirectional capability. With an H-bridge, motors can go forward or backward, left or right, up or down, etc, depending on the use of the motor(s) in the circuit. Without a microcontroller, the only way to be able to control an H-bridge

The other day I wanted to experiment with external triggers for my Canon EOS 550D camera. I stumpled upon a nice open source project called Arduino Camera Control from Oleg Mazurov, the creator of the USB Host Shield library for Arduino. The Arduino Camera Control project depends on the USB Host Shield library and the

THE SETUP For an interface I thought 3 LEDs would be simple enough: Blue for everything is fine (as blue LEDs are cooler than green ones); red for something is wrong; and yellow for the modem and router are being restarted. I added a button to do the actual restarting as I wanted it to

How does the security alarm circuit works? When power is turned on, the circuit goes into standby mode, and this condition is indicated by “SECURITY ALARM” in the LCD screen.Note that here a N/O reedswitch + bar magnet combination is used to detect any mishaps, and hence the reed switch should be in “closed”state at
