The Arduino is the ultimate tool in the Maker’s arsenal. You should be able to build your own! In the early days of the project, circa 2005, the design was all through-hole parts and communication was via a RS232 serial cable. The files are still available, so you can make your own, and I have, but not many computers […]

Thanks to Will Greiman’s Fat16 library for the Arduino, I finally got a useful version of this datalogger working! Here’s the schematic: And here’s the code. The code is highly configurable: it can save raw A/D values or converted values, it allows software-defined gain, it can collect for a set time or until user input,

Introduction This microcontroller project demonstrates how to interface a Bosch BME280 environmental sensor with an Arduino Uno using Proteus simulation. The system measures temperature, humidity, pressure, and calculated altitude and displays the results via serial output.It is a practical embedded systems example ideal for learning sensor communication, I²C protocols, and real-world data acquisition.This project is
This Instructable will tell you how to use the IR (infrared) library on an Attiny. I will be using an Attiny85 with an Arduino Uno. I won’t cover how to upload sketches to the Attiny just how to use the IR library with it. the best tutorial on uploading sketches I’ve found is this YouTube

This was a 2 hour project I whipped up in order to learn how to use a new Bluetooth LE 4.0 module I picked up at redbearlab.com, called a BLE Mini. I’ve since thought of several much simpler ways (and more dependable) to accomplish the same thing, such as simply lighting 3 LEDs behind weather

We built a system that uses eight air-clamping cylinders (McMaster-Carr 62185K64) to push down on a piece of glass to seal it to a sidewall. A number of times, the glass has cracked. So, this project is an attempt to come up with an inexpensive way of measuring how many pounds of force the cylinders
