For a class assignment, I needed to make something fabric-based which took an Arduino, some programming, and at least two inputs and outputs. After sketching a few different ideas, I hit on this one: an electromagnetic glove for MagnetoGirl. It sprang to life for me, because magnetism is an invisible force which can seem magical. […]
The Arduino UNO, developed around the ATmega328P microcontroller, boasts a versatile array of features. With 14 digital I/O pins, including 6 PWM outputs, along with 6 analog inputs and a 16 MHz quartz crystal, it offers ample flexibility for various projects. Additionally, it comes equipped with essential components such as a USB connection, a power

This system allows remote control of up to four industrial devices using a joystick and Arduino Nano microcontroller board. Figure 1 presents a block diagram of the joystick-controlled industrial automation setup. Key components include: An Arduino Nano which processes signals from the joystick and outputs control commands. A joystick module that generates analog position readings
Project and Instructable write-up done by Ian Lacy on behalf of the MIT Edgerton Center. In this project, I’ll show you how to build an Apollo 11 clock. The clock has each hour associated with a leg of the mission, and plays an associated audio clip at each hour. Every third hour, it also has a
Red Pitaya has launched a high-end STEMlab platform – STEMlab is a test and measurement environment designed to provide a low-cost alternative to many expensive measurement and control instruments. STEMlab 250-12 offers enhanced hardware performance, complete software control and additional hardware features over STEMlab-125 products, and is designed to meet the needs of more demanding users for industrial, research, test
We’re all used to general purpose microcontroller boards such as the Arduino or its many imitators, but perhaps we don’t see as much of their industrial cousins. A programmable logic controller (PLC) is a computer designed to automate industrial machinery, and comes with protected interfaces and usually a specific PLC programming environment. Thus [Galopago]’s work with
STMicroelectronics is making design starts using 8-bit STM8 microcontrollers (MCUs) faster, more affordable, and more accessible for creative minds of all types by introducing new development boards in the easy-to-use Nucleo-32 form factor. The compact boards are controlled and powered conveniently through a USB connection. An ST-LINK debugger/programmer is integrated, which saves using an external

EEZ teams recently announced their latest project; the EEZ Bench Box 3 (BB3). The Bench Box 3 which is a FOSS and open hardware programmable power supply concept was designed to serve as a successor to EEZ’s H24005, with the aim of providing a power supply with better modularity, higher capacity, and functionality while preserving openness, and rich software
This Arduino sketch exercises the standard hardware of the CKS-1-Shield board. It provides a console interface for reading inputs and triggering outputs, and a set of asynchronous state machines for generating test motions. Console Interface static void parse_user_input(int argc, char *argv[]) Process an input message tokenized from a line of console input. New commands may be defined by
