ZigUNO – An Arduino UNO-sized Zigbee board that works with PTVO firmware

ZigUNO Zigbee development board comes with an Ebyte E18-MS1 module equipped with Texas Instruments SimpleLink CC2530 8051 Zigbee microcontroller and follows Arduino UNO form for Arduino Shield compatibility. The board works with PTVO Zigbee firmware that comes with a graphical configuration tool to select the Zigbee chip used (CC2530), configure I/O behavior (input/output, pull-up, etc…), and more. […]

A HOME MADE LASER CUTTER FOR $700

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

While some decent lasers are out there for under $400 USD, they tend to be a little small. What if you wanted something a little nicer but didn’t want to jump to the $2,000 category? The answer for [Owen Schafer] was to build it with parts he had lying around and a few strategic purchases. While

ARDUINO DRUM PLATFORM IS FAST

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

Drums are an exciting instrument to learn to play, but often prohibitive if there are housemates or close neighbors involved. For that problem there are still electronic drums which can be played much more quietly, but then the problem becomes one of price. To solve at least part of that one, [Jeremy] turned to using an

HOMEBREW OPTICAL SENSOR HELPS YOUR DIESEL PASS THE SMOKE TEST

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

We’ve all heard of the smoke test, and we know that it’s the lowest possible bar for performance of an electronic device. If it doesn’t burst into flames when power is applied, you’re good to go for more functional testing. But the smoke test means something else for cars, especially those powered by diesel fuel.

Mathematical formula that converts voltage to weight the HX711 is using

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

Coding wise all good but ive been searching and reading everywhere but still could not find how the HX711 converts voltage coming from the load cell into weight? is there a formula that converts voltage to weight ? if so whatt is this mathematical formula that the HX711 is using?I tried to see if maybe the arduino does the

SCRATCH-BUILT INDUSTRIAL CAMERA’S MODULAR DESIGN REALLY STACKS UP

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

The news here isn’t so much that [Guarav Singh] built this high-quality industrial digital camera from scratch, but it’s in the way it was accomplished. That plus the amount of information that’s packed into the write-up, of course. And the excellent photography. Modularity was one of [Guarav]’s design goals, with the intention of being able to

POCKET COMPUTER REMINDS US OF PDAS

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

Before smartphones exploded on the scene in the late 00s, there was still a reasonable demand for pocket-sized computers that could do relatively simple computing tasks. Palm Pilots and other PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) were all the rage in the ’90s and early ’00s, although for cutting-edge tech from that era plenty of these devices

A 3D-PRINTED NIXIE CLOCK POWERED BY AN ARDUINO RUNS THIS ROBOT

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

While it is hard to tell with a photo, this robot looks more like a model of an old- fashioned clock than anything resembling a Nixie tube. It’s the kind of project that could have been created by anyone with a little bit of Arduino tinkering experience. In this case, the 3D printer used by

THIS ARDUINO PEN PLOTTER IS BUILT FOR SPEED

Arduino News / By Ibrar Ayyub

We see a lot of simple pen plotter projects around here, and while we appreciate them one and all, most of them are a little on the slow side. That’s OK — a glacial pace is sometimes all that’s needed, as long as it gets the job done. But there’s nothing wrong with putting the
