Eye Guardian is an Arduino powered, High-Decibel continuous sound triggered eye protection wear. It detects heavy equipment sound and lowers protective eye goggles while the equipment is in use. Outline In the first step, I will explain the Inspiration&Idea behind this project. Next, I will give you a Tools&Parts list that I have used to […]

As a project for one of my college classes, we were asked to create something using the Arduino. After a few different ideas, I settled on putting an Arduino noise machine into a suit jacket. It uses parts of the jacket to make function, so that it appears that the jacket is making sounds for

This is a set of musical bells which are driven by solenoids and controlled by an Arduino microcontroller. There are 8 bells covering one octave. The bells are controllable from a PC, or the tower can stand alone and play pre-programmed melodies. Check out the final page for video of it in action. Step 1:

Welcome to my Instructables on how to build a RGB LED backlight for e.g. the back of your TV or desk. The Schematic itself is very simple since the WS2812 LED Strips are very easy to interface with e.g an Arduino Nano. Note: that you do not have to use the additional MSGEQ7 Audio Analyzer circuit if you only want the

I’ve had an AC692N developer board at home for a long time, and now I want to make a music player that works with the STONE serial touch screen. The following functions need to be implemented: 1. Play MP3 files in the USB flash drive 2. Connect the mobile phone with Bluetooth and play mobile

As a follow up to the Arduino Audio Input tutorial that I posted last week, I wrote a sketch which analyzes a signal coming into the Arduino’s analog input and determines the frequency. The code uses a sampling rate of 38.5kHz and is generalized for arbitrary waveshapes. I’ve also turned the LED attached to pin

In the past few years, a number of synthesizer manufacturers have been releasing “desktop semi-modular” instruments. They generally take the same form factor as the Eurorack modular synthesizer format and most are probably intended as a gateway drug into the world of modular. (As addictions go, it’s one of the safer ones.) I fell for

The Ultrasonic Theremin is an Arduino project that uses a cheap theremin to teach sound waves. By changing the distance of my hand to the device, I am changing the frequency of the sound waves. Also, moving a potentiometer changes the amplitude of the wave. This can be used as a science lesson about sound
