This is officially my first Instructables article, so I’m going to admit that I am using this opportunity right now to try it out. Get a feel of how the platform works, the whole user experience side of it. But while I am doing that, I figured I can also use the opportunity to share […]
As summer is coming, I bought a USB fan from HuaQiangBei, Shenzhen. However, when I focus myself on work(or game), I could hardly notice its existence. If I can teach it how to think and execute its duty without my order, that will be more practical and fun! So roll your sleeves and follow me
Temperature-controlled USB fan using Arduino Continue Reading
Eye Guardian is an Arduino powered, High-Decibel continuous sound triggered eye protection wear. It detects heavy equipment sound and lowers protective eye goggles while the equipment is in use. Outline In the first step, I will explain the Inspiration&Idea behind this project. Next, I will give you a Tools&Parts list that I have used to
Eye Guardian: Sound Triggered Eye Protection Continue Reading
As a project for one of my college classes, we were asked to create something using the Arduino. After a few different ideas, I settled on putting an Arduino noise machine into a suit jacket. It uses parts of the jacket to make function, so that it appears that the jacket is making sounds for
This example demonstrates the use of INPUT_PULLUP with pinMode(). It monitors the state of a switch by establishingserial communication between your Arduino and your computer over USB. Additionally, when the input is HIGH, the onboard LED attached to pin 13 will turn on; when LOW, the LED will turn off. Circuit image developed using Fritzing. For more
This is a self sufficient Arduino board, which is powered by harnessing solar power and using a 9V rechargeable battery. It is perfect for anyone who is interested in doing Arduino projects that do not require a computer or any power supply. You can take this to the most remote places for any project. Step
These slippers have 4 analog pressure sensors embedded. They can be used to feed Up, Down, Left and Right values into your computer replacing your mouse, joystick… Visit the JoySlippers website >> http://www.joyslippers.plusea.at/ This Instructable improves upon the previous version http://www.instructables.com/id/Joy-Slippers/. It will show you how to make a pair of Joy Slippers, connect them
This is a set of musical bells which are driven by solenoids and controlled by an Arduino microcontroller. There are 8 bells covering one octave. The bells are controllable from a PC, or the tower can stand alone and play pre-programmed melodies. Check out the final page for video of it in action. Step 1:
Welcome to my Instructables on how to build a RGB LED backlight for e.g. the back of your TV or desk. The Schematic itself is very simple since the WS2812 LED Strips are very easy to interface with e.g an Arduino Nano. Note: that you do not have to use the additional MSGEQ7 Audio Analyzer circuit if you only want the
An all-in-one tutorial to getting started with the Arduino open-source electronics prototyping platform. This guide is meant for the beginner but should be also be useful to you if you already tinker with electronics but want to get started with the Arduino. I’ll cover: – breadboarding LED outputs from the Arduino – creating and reading
