Designing a Spinning/Rotating LED Display In this project, we will demonstrate how to create a basic “Rotating LED Display” (commonly referred to as Spinning LED Display) using Arduino. The idea to start this project sparked in my mind after I noticed a product in the market that featured a clearly visible text message on a […]
I will demonstrate how to create a 7 segment display using LEDs. Use Arduino in conjunction to make countdown timers, basic text displays, and additional features. I enjoy creating unique projects. I looked through all of instructables and couldn’t find anything similar to this. Actually, I looked on Google but found no results. This idea […]
You may be wondering, what is a PIP-Boy exactly? If you don’t know, a PIP-Boy is a tool used by the main character in the well-liked Fallout video game series for navigating, detecting radiation, storing/playing data, and managing inventory. As a huge enthusiast of the franchise, I chose to create my own version, but not […]
The affordable MP3 VS1053 codec processor available on aliexpress.com is said to have the ability to decode different music formats such as Ogg Vorbis/MP3/AAC/WMA/MIDI audio. VS1053 can also record in Ogg Vobis file, but the available guidance online is mainly for proprietary boards or ESP32-IDF, which is not recommended due to the amount of coding […]
Greetings to all, we are glad to have you back on our website! This time around, we are showcasing a superb project: the automated plant watering system. With this project, we use technology to help plants grow on their own. After one month of being put into action, we noticed significant advancements in the growth […]
This page explains how to build an RFID reader with just an Arduino (Nano 3.0 was used in testing, but other models may be compatible), a wire coil made by hand, and various affordable common components. Credits The hardware and software designs for this project are based in part on the ideas, code and schematics […]
I started learning Arduino a couple of years ago and started playing around with a 16×2 LCD display that uses the Hitachi HD44780 chipset. I soon found out that the screen provides 8 character slots that are customizable. I found a project in which someone used the slots to create their own special characters, which […]
I was supporting a group of student on their graduation project. One of the difficulties they faced was on controlling an A/C unit with Arduino microcontroller. The first experiment we tried to work it out was by record the A/C remote control beam signal for each needed button by using the IRrecvDump code with IRremote […]
I am presenting a compact design of a stripboard Arduino board (DIYduino) that includes a 2A motor driver and has additionally the functionality of a sensor shield. The 2-channel version cost approximately $29.43 and is more affordable compared to $39.00 for a commercially available system consisting of an Arduino Uno, $21.50, a sensor shield, $8.50, […]
For my internship at Create Digital Music/Meeblip I’ve created quite a fun little synthesizer. This thing is meant to be more flexible than other synthesizer by making it completely independent; it is battery powered, has its own amplifier/speaker and is controlled by a manually operated sequencer. Inspiration for this form comes from my frustrations with most synthesizers: […]
