A desktop motorized musical disco ball. Great for holiday parties, impromptu dance-offs, and Tuesday afternoons. Bling, Music, Arduino, and glitter covered styrofoam; this Instructable has got what you need to get your boogie on. Fires need help go get going, so do parties. I recently moved from Hartford where my boys @HPSU(http://hartfordpartystarters.org/) would get it started

John has been working to recover components from old power supplies and available trash electronics, in order to build controllers to power stepper motors and other mechanisms for the FabLab. Intro The Arduino microcontroller board is able to supply a current of 40mA from its output connections. These digital outputs are fixed at 5V “ON”

Overview In the first serial lab, you sent data from one sensor to a personal computer. In this lab, you’ll send data from multiple sensors to a program on a personal computer. You’ll use the data from the sensors to create a pointing-and-selecting device (i.e. a mouse). (:toc Table of Contents:) Connect the sensors Connect

About 2 years ago I picked up a ADJD-S371 color sensor from Sparkfun to work with my arduino. I spent a few days getting it to work, but finally got it going pretty well. I still get a few emails here and there asking for help with it. So I figured I would start bildr’s

Today we’ll expand Arduino’s digital resources thanks to an I2C bus equipped shield and we’ll allow the management of the board via a bluetooth connection RN-42 through an Android systems. All Arduino boards feature a number of digital I/Os. For the simplest projects, such resources are usually more than sufficient, but in those where they
