Updating the Arduino Garage Door Circuit for the new Gliderol Garage Controller.

Updating the Arduino Garage Door Circuit for the new Gliderol Garage Controller.

We moved house recently and I was obviously very keen to continue the home automation routine. As described in Adventures with an Arduino – Part 1: The Business Problem, I created an Arduino based garage door interface to integrate with a BOSS BOL6 garage door controller. The new house however uses a Gliderol GTS controller – […]

Haptic Feedback device for the Visually Impaired Project HALO

Haptic Feedback device for the Visually Impaired [Project HALO] using arduino

I recently watched an episode of Stan Lee’s Superhumans which featured a blind man who used a series of clicks, like a bat, to echo locate his surroundings. I got to thinking about other blind people and their ability to navigate freely – without the use of a guide dog or cane. I came up

A simple DIY spectrophotometer

A simple DIY spectrophotometer using raduino

What’s all this? This instructable will explain how to build a fairly basic but working spectrophotometer out of easily sourceable parts. Of course, this device is nothing compared to a commercial spectrophotometer, but it will allow the builder to understand how such a device works. Huh? What are you talking about?! A spectrophotometer measures the

Arduino project Stereo Peak Program Meter

Arduino project: Stereo Peak Program Meter using arduino

Previously, we introduced the Arduino’s analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in detail, looking at successive-approximation A-D conversion and how it’s the best compromise between speed and cost. This time, we start putting some of that theory into practice by building a stereo peak-program meter. Our Peak Program Meter (pictured above) takes audio from any phone or tablet.

Sending Message Using Alpha Numeric Keypad with GSM and Arduino

Sending Message Using Alpha-Numeric Keypad with GSM and Arduino

GSM is quite a common Device which is used in major Projects and Real Time Operations. There are many applications which are using features of GSM Module like the feature sending Messages, making a Voice Call, Reading Messages, attempting Call etc. Many at times you may have sent Messages using your Cell Phone and also
