Greetings everyone! We hope you are in good health. We live in a world where any form of physical contact between two human beings is starting to pose serious health issues. Keeping this in mind, a while ago, we had worked on an automatic water tap using an Infrared sensor to detect the presence of […]

R/C LEGO® “The Bull” Buggy
There are more than 20 models of LEGO®’s Dune Buggy type car, even more than the models in LEGO® Race Car category. Dune Buggy is usually four wheels drive off road vehicle, which would not be used on the road. Now that I got excited on the “dune buggy”, and was also inspired by 1998 LEGO®’s Turbo […]
Arduino Esplora Microphone (Sound Sensor)
This sketch shows you how to read the microphone sensor. The microphone will range from 0 (total silence) to 1023 (really loud). It uses the sound level to set a brightness level for the green LED. When you’re using the sensor’s reading (for example, to set the brightness of the LED), you map the sensor’s […]
Pinewood Derby Car Scale With Center-of-Gravity (CG) Calculation
A key factor when building a pinewood derby car is its weight. The Boy Scouts of America and other organizations specify a weight of no more than 5 ounces. To improve performance many builders will add as much weight (mass) as possible up to that maximum allowable weight limit. What is often overlooked is the […]
Electronic Dice With Arduino Nano
The electronic dice presented here, built around a tiny Arduino Nano board, mimics the dice we play in different games like snake and ladders the most popular. Plastic and wooden dice are subject to wear and tear with time and might show biasing toward a specific number defying theory of randomness and the player as well. As […]
Add Linux, WiFi, Ethernet and USB to Arduino
Web site: http://www.dragino.com/products/yunshield/item/86-yun-shield.html Project Summary: The model of this shield named Yun Shield, the feature of this shield is as its name. User can add this shield into Arduino (Leonardo, UNO, MEGA2560 etc) and “turn” the Arduino into device which has similiar features as Arduino Yun: support remote upgrade and use the Bridge library. With […]
Bike Turn Signal & Brake Light Handlebars
This project was inspired by a very cool kickstarter called Helios Bars. Essentially what this project does, is put an arduino, LEDs, and buttons into your bike handlebars. The LEDs can be used as turn signals, brake lights, or display ambient colors while riding. It’s fun, cheap, and a good introductory to LEDs and arduino. The […]
Blood Oxygen Heart Rate Meter
This instructables show how to use MAX30102, XIAO and a tiny display to build a blood oxygen and heart rate meter. Step 1: Sensor & Algorithm This project use Maxim Integrated MAX30102 Biosensor to detect pulse oximeter and heart rate. However, the official sample is not so accurate, so will use the MolecularD algorithm instead. Ref.: https://www.instructables.com/Pulse-Oximeter-With-… […]
A Robotic lawn mower powered by Solar Energy with an Arduino heart
This robot will mow the grass of your garden, staying within a defined area, avoiding all obstacles and working in complete autonomy, automatically charging itself with a solar panel. In this post we present a robotic lawn mower, powered with solar energy and able to operate just with the clean energy from the sun; this […]
Paddle for People With Limb Differences and Agenesis to Play Flute
In France and some other countries playing the flute is included in music lessons at school. This project is to share a possible solution for children or music lovers with limb differences and agenesis to play flute. Basic Idea: Use an Arduino board to make a circuit that if a button is pressed then the […]
