How cool would it be to have your own Arduino weather station right in your backyard? Sounds fun? Geeky? Having your own weather station means that you don’t need any more inaccurate results from the weather channel! You can even log the data and play around with it. Set mood lighting according to the weather? Why not? This tutorial will get you kick-started with your own DIY Weather Box to chart out local ...

The Christmas light show with Arduino is a project that controls a number of lights according to a song in sync with the music. It can be used to control stage lights and fog machines (that don’t have DMX) with a computer to achieve wonderful synchronization for performances on stage, which is not always possible with manual lighting control consoles. During last year’s holidays, I was watching videos of Ch ...

Biotechnology is powerful, but only for those with the tools to experiment with and utilize it. The DIYbio movement seeks to put the tools and techniques used in well-funded laboratories around the world into the hands of ordinary people who have an interest but not the means to investigate biology. One of these tools is the centrifuge. Centrifuges come in many shapes and sizes to fit a wide variety of labo ...

Description Mystick is an innovative hiking stick that promote exploration and allows you to share your hiking experiences and special findings with other users. When picked up by a user, the Mystick already has a predetermined location to which it directs using a compass and GPS to direct LED lights in the direction of the location. With the simple push of a button, the users progress to the chosen locatio ...

So about a year ago I decided that I wanted to get into AVR microcontrollers. After ordering an AVR pocket programmer from Sparkfun , I soon realized that it was too delicate to be sitting on a workbench full of wire clippings. I knew I needed a small enclosure to put it in, but couldn't find anything I really liked. My final decision was to make my own. This instructable will explain the steps necessary to ...

After buying a Nanode (an Arduino-compatible board with ethernet built-in) last weekend, we've been trying to work it out by making a couple of simple examples, the 'Binary Dice' is the first one with input and outputs. A note, this code example is based on the one from the book Arduino: A Quick-Start Guide by Maik Schmidt. You'll need (other than the Nanode/Arduino board): 3 LEDs (ours were rated for 0.8mA ...

Quickly testing a GPIO pin To set pin GPIO_PH1 as an output: sudo su (Enter your user password. Defaults to "ubuntu") # See which pins are currently configured as GPIO, and what their state is. cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio # Validate that the entry for the Tegra GPIO controller has a base value of 0. If not, add on whatever the base value is to the “57” in the commands below. echo 57 > /sys/class/gpio/expo ...

In this instructible I will show you how I make my servo stand.  This stand is useful if you want to test a new way to control a servo but dont want to use a servo on your robot or something.  make Step 1: Cut the wood cut 2 5inch pieces of 2x4 then measure the short side of the servo and add 2inches then cut 2 pieces of paint stirrer to this measurement Step 2: Put it togather First -skrew the servo on to ...

First of all, I'm from Switzerland so please excuse my english mistakes. Here is one of my first little project I did with my Arduino Uno. It's is just a little light seeker. The servo turns towards the light. Step 1: The wiring Here is the exact wiring I used. The only difference is that I fixed the photoresistors on the servo (but I couldn't do it with the program) Also I used a 9V battery in the video, i ...
