Assembly of the Female Connector Block The wiring harness has a male and female end. The gender of electrical and mechanical parts is described on this Wikipedia page. The header pins that are soldered into the circuit board for the LCD panel are plugged into the female end of the wiring harness. This web page […]
The Android Open Accessory Protocol makes it possible for you to create custom Arduino-based accessories for your Android phone or tablet. Attend this session to learn how to get started, the hardware & software required and how Handbag makes development easier. Content will be useful whether you have previous Android or Arduino experience or neither.
I’m currently in the process of making a Halloween contraption that has a few components that are worth documenting. The Huge Arduino Animatronic LED Eyeball is one of them. Background Most animatronic eyeball projects that I found were more or less life-size. They were usually ping pong balls or dolls eyes or 3-D printed. I

Introduction Our goal was to build a brain-computer interface using an AVR microcontroller. We decided that the least invasive way of measuring brain waves would be using electroencephalography (EEG) to record microvolt-range potential differences across locations on the user’s scalp. In order to accomplish this, we constructed a two-stage amplification and filtering circuit. Moreover, we
Arduino + Android Normally smartphone events are tightly coupled to your phone device itself. When your cell phone is ringing, your phone speaker plays a ringtone. When you get a new text message, your phone displays it on its screen. Wouldn’t it be thrilling to make thoses phone events visible somewhere else, on your wearable,

Shown below is the finalized prototype. The purpose of the prototype was to demonstrate the feasibility of a small, highly maneuverable search and rescue robot. As such, the completed prototype was successful. Capabilities include a ground speed of 10 inches per second, battery life of 50 minutes, wireless range of between 50 and 150 feet
This is a Line Following Robot. It follows a black line that is drawn. It is able to detect the black line through one photocell and one analog light sensor. There is an LED in between the two sensors that gives off red light when the Arduino is powered on. Then, when the light is
Overview Simple AC Dimmer circuit for incandescent bulbs. 128 levels of brightness. Parts are relatively cheap! How it Works This is an AC Chopping Circuit. The dim level sets where the AC waveform gets chopped on. More of the cycle makes the bulb brighter, less is dimmer. (from digikey http://www.digikey.com/ca/en/techzone/lighting/resources/articles/Retrofit-LED-Bulbs-and-Drivers.html) Photo Digital Signals. The four
One of the coolest projects I have done so-far with my kids is a “near-space” balloon. That’s not quite into space itself (100Km+) but so high that the sky looks black and you can start to see the curvature of the earth below you. The Flickr set with the photos from our first launch is

In this Instructable I wanted to show to you how to make a self balancing robot. What makes it unique is that its exterior is made to look like the Instructables Robot. Internally it works in the principle of PID, it is a very popular control system for maintaining a variable from fluctuating. In this
