It all started when I saw a BBC documentary in 2002 about deep waters of the ocean. There was a biolimunescent jellyfish in the documentary, probably of the species “ctenophores” that grabbed my attention so in the later years I decided use it as a Halloween costume. It wasn’t until 2011 when the led strips using LPD8806 driver chips […]
Sometimes you want everything in the program to stop while a given condition is true. You can do this using a while loop. This example shows how to use a while loop to calibrate the value of an analog sensor. In the main loop, the sketch below reads the value of a photoresistor on analog pin 0 and […]
Project by Ailey Simpson and Peter Ehvert Rooted in biomimetics, this project for Computational Design and Digital Fabrication looks to emulate one of the most useless behaviours seen in the natural world, the Fainting Goat. The robot shown here copies some of the core principals of the fainting goat but also includes some additional twists. In this […]
L3DGEWorld is a tool for monitoring and interacting with networks and computer systems. Within a 3D world, entities bounce, spin, scale and otherwise change. These entities all represent an entity in another context – be it a server, phone, router or other monitorable device. The visual transformations represent various characteristics of these entities, such as […]
The mailbox phone alert sends you a text whenever you get mail. I remember anxiously checking my mail multiple times a day during the spring of my senior year of high school as I awaited letters back from colleges. Nervously, I would walk up to the mailbox. My heart would skip a beat as I […]
Communication with the outside world is a great feature for Arduino Projects and mandatory for many of them. In this instructable, we will, painlessly, create an Arduino WiFi project that allows you to send it commands to turn on/off LED’s connected to the Arduino from a computer over your WiFi. The development cycle will be […]
After I got comfortable programming and building with an Arduino, I used my newly acquire microcontroller skills to build a robot. Using a microcontroller, four high-torque DC gear motors, spiked legs, a linear actuator, rotation sensors, and 3 L298 H-bridge circuits, this robot can climb up trees of varying diameter. The very long build log […]
I made a Clock that not only display Time,Date, Temp & Hum but you can send message to the clock via Mobile App (Blynk) from anywhere in the World as long as you are connected to internet. And you can also alert by Pressing Panic Button in Clock a Notification Alert will be sent to Mobile instantly through internet. […]
Last month, I made a XY-plotter by Makeblock and use it to built a Drawing Robot. This Drawing Robot was built with two Linear Motion Shaft D8x480mm, two Long Beam0824, the timing belt, two stepper motors, two stepper motor driver, and a micro-controller Arduino. You can send a picture from the phone or you can […]
Smart House will be the next smartphone. The technology that encompasses a smart house will become the new normal for modern-day homeowners. Smart houses range from basic to advanced depending on the sensors that are installed in the house and the operating system. The ARD-02, 201 Arduino Basics Starter Kit, comes with everything to build […]
