I’ve been encountering lots or Arduino projects but generally most are on intermediate and advanced level and only a few basic instructions on how to start with Arduino. This project I made were actually inspired by this example on the Arduino page, but a much in depth step by step instructions. Assuming that you already […]

Like the idea of making coffee on the fly? from your bed? While you’re on the bus coming home? Then the Tweet-a-pot is for you! Tweet-a-pot is the next in fancy twitter enabled devices. This coffee pot enables its owner to make a pot of coffee from anywhere they have cell phone reception, using twitter

I do a lot of projects with Arduino’s and breadboards. Often as I work on a messy workbench, the Arduino or breadboard get jostled and the wires pop out of the headers or the breadboard. To solve this problem, I decided to make a simple acrylic stand for mounting an Arduino and a breadboard that

This is partially me sharing this technique, and partially me learning how to use Instructables. If there are issues with my documentation of the technique or my use of Instructables, please let me know in the comments – thanks! I needed a long row of switches in a pinch, and didn’t have nearly enough switches

Have your ever seen any of “Ben Hecks” portable console builds? Well if you haven’t, he often uses these Chinese Famicom clone consoles. These cloned consoles are often times refered to as NOAC’s, meaning NES On A Chip. They are called this because they are a fully functional Nintendo Entertainment System literally on one chip.

Concept: I would like to make a jacket that has a small LCD screen to create subtexts for interpersonal human interaction. The user would use a limited “keyboard” with force sensors and buttons under soft silicone keys to create computer textual subtitles to human interaction (textual emoticons, ie: :P). The dichotomy between personal interaction that

I am submitting this instructable to the Arduino challenge. Please remember to vote! My neighbor had a little problem with his cat. It want’s to go out and back inside too frequently. Usually he opens just his kitchen window and let’s the cat in/out. Usually the cat stays only short periods outside and want’s soon

Hello, This time I will show an application of the infrared sensor module with Arduino. This module (composed of a pair of LEDs, a infrared transmitter and a receiver and an IC that generates a frequency modulated) is generally used to detect obstacles in robots. This module has some advantages over a simple LED emitting
Robotic Eye using Arduino Continue Reading
In this instructable we will learn how to use 6 buttons to control the color of an RGB LED with the use of an Arduino Micro Controller. This is a fun and easy little project that should take you no more then 20 minutes to finish. Step 1: Connecting an RGB LED Before we connect

Experience Level: Intermediate (requires soldering) Time Required: 3-5 hours depending on experience J-BOT Kit Jameco P/N 2140285 Someone mentioned that Jameco needed a robotic mascot. I have always been a tinkerer, especially with radio-controlled electronics and so I volunteered for the chance to design and create the J-Bot. While this was my first autonomous
