I am teaching a robotics course in my kids high school (Rambam Mesivta in Lawrence, NY). I was looking for a cost effective way to teach them about the priciples of robotics without spending an arm and a leg, and getting them excited about the prospects of hacking hardware and teach them how to interface
[OoB] Shooting paintball maker with relay, Arduino and .NET WinForms My first Arduino based project was Sonar with C#, JS and HTML5. Now I continue the “Out of Boredom” series with a setup that allows firing a paintball marker (gun) with a command sent from a computer 🙂 This time software stack is simpler –

Welcome to the SM-1 project from ArduinoArts.com! (A.K.A as the Annoying IKEA Lamp) We are proud to introduce you to the SM-1 project (aka the Annoying IKEA lamp), as part of the Toy hacking contest from the SeeedStudio.com friends. The project consists in modifying an IKEA 5€ lamp and adding it some sensors, lights, sound

“Hello world”,I am not going to start this blog with typical “Hello world” program,since lot of resources already covered Arduino way of telling “hello world”,that is Blinking a LED. This project is absolutely for beginners who prefers to run than taking a walk,I am going to control 7 segment display to automatically count numbers from

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to control a high-current DC load such as a DC motor or an incandescent light from a microcontroller. (:toc Table of Contents:) Connect a transistor to the microcontroller The transistor allows you to control a circuit that’s carrying higher current and voltage from the microcontroller. It acts as an
Using a transistor to control high current loads with an Arduino Continue Reading
Hey guys! So I finally decided to make a page that has everything you could possibly know about my project. Even though I had previously answered everyone’s questions, they were usually through a message. Because of that, I was usually asked the same questions and I figure making this instructable will mitigate that. So without

This project is a contribution to the first belgian Arduino Jam (2012). First of all we would like to thank the organisation and especially the main sponsor, Capgemini, which made all of this possible. Bleeber is a physical way of interacting with data trough oobleck. In Belgium it’s commonly known that the train schedule has its
