Welcome to my first Instructable! This is for something I’ve coined the “Tweety” or, Tweety-Button. The concept is simple, you’re on your computer and the inspiration to Tweet is welling up inside. Chrome is being slow today, and you want to get those 140 characters out, fast! No fear, just click on the Tweety button …
This simple system allows web based remote control of a swimming pool pump and heater, or any device that be switched with simple relays. It uses a Raspberry Pi as the main controller and web server. It also uses a remote thermometer run by an Arduino at the pool, powered by a battery and a …

Hi every body . Before A 3 months Ago , one of my friend ask me to build a Simple FM transmitter , he Would to transmit An Audio File from computer and PLAY it on any radio channel , By adjust the frequency of receiver as same as transmitter frequency I searched on the …
I came across Plama2002’s “Emergency Party Button” build a while back and wanted something similar for my bar. I also had an old USAF B-8 stick grip from an A-10A that I picked up in my previous life. I figured instead of just being a conversation piece, I could put it to good use as …

Flying model rockets is fun, but there is always the question of how high did it go. Using a programmable micro-controller and some sensors, you can monitor the entire phase of flight and measure acceleration and altitude, among other things. With this project, I’ll show you how I did just that, using off-the-shelf open source hardware and …

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 …

I was going to make a huge write-up on this, but I can’t be bothered right now. I’ll probably do something about it later. Until then, have an Arduino sketch. If you don’t know what you’re doing with it then chances are you don’t have an Arduino, in which case the file is useless to …
To see how RFM12B wireless compares to other similar wireless options (e.g Xbee, XRF etc..) check out this well compiled comparison overview by Stuart Poulton: http://blog.homelabs.org.uk/wireless-connectivity/. Overview Made by Hope RF, re-branded by RFsolutions in the UK. Sometimes called ‘Alpha RF’ Low cost RF transceiver (from Rapid, Farnell, or RS in the UK) Up to 300m transmission Up …
This simple hack turns your Raspberry Pi into a powerful FM transmitter! It has enough range to cover your home, DIY drive-in movie, a high school ball game, or even a bike parade (depending on the stragglers). PiFM software not only boldly enhances the capability of your Pi, but does so with nothing more than a …
