This instructable will be about using arduino to control the revell vexplorer. Later you can add as many sensors you want. If you don’t have most of the parts already this will cost you about $200 dollars. Most of the electronic bits you can find at radioshack and vexplorer at amazon, also arduino at the […]

A bracelet decorated with six conductive fabric petals and a thread of beads with a metal bead at the end, makes for a simple six point tilt detection. It is also designed so that the metal bead will make contact with two petals if it lies in between. and then of course it will make

You know that feeling of driving away from your house almost getting to work and saying “Now Did close the garage door?” . I hate that feeling and seeked out to resolve it in the smiplest/cheapest way I could. The starting point was of course Arduino. This project ended up being simpler than I could

This page explains how to build an RFID reader with just an Arduino (Nano 3.0 was used in testing, but other models may be compatible), a wire coil made by hand, and various affordable common components. Credits The hardware and software designs for this project are based in part on the ideas, code and schematics

Nixie tubes are really cool looking and are becoming quite popular for their ‘retro’ look. Although there are a number of tutorials out there on using nixie tubes and some nice pre-packaged units (see these nice ones from ogi lumenand ArduiNIX) I hadn’t seen a simple tutorial on running them using a shift register like the SN74HC595.

RepRap Update I have finally printed all the plastic parts for the Griffin Open Source 3D printer I’m building, and they look fantastic! The remaining components should arrive soon, and then I can start construction. In the meantime, I’ve been configuring the printer control board, an Arduino Mega 2560 with the RAMPS 1.4 extension. RAMPS

We all know about Arduino. It is one of the most popular open source micro controller board which is highly useful for doing DIY projects. This Arduino based 3-Way Traffic Light Controller is a simple Arduino DIY project which is useful to understand the working of traffic lights which we see around us. We have covered

A note on what this document covers The key addition to the wealth of online information about pulse counting is the method of counting pulses from multiple sources (up to 12) using continuous sampling and direct port manipulation in an Arduino sketch instead of interrupt-based counting. When tallying pulses from one or two pulse output

In our previous tutorials, we have learned about How to interface GPS module with Computer, how to build a Arduino GPS Clock and how to Track vehicle using GSM and GPS. Here in this project, we are going to build a Arduino based vehicle accident alert system using GPS, GSM and accelerometer. Accelerometer detects the sudden

https://github.com/stirobot/arduinoModularTFTgaugesI built a custom OBD II (on board diagnostics version 2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics) The clock in my Subaru BRZ (GT86, FRS) was a popular feature, and many people asked me to make one for them. This is how you can construct your own. My spouse is close to delivering our second son and since all the
