When looking for some new DIY projects around arduino I found some nice ideas on RFID based MP3 players for Kids. And there is one great professional toy box on the market – these guys rule. They made a great business out of their smart idea. Check out – you’ll find their page! As my […]
This is meant as a guide to anyone soldering their own Arduino from a kit, which can be purchased from A2D Electronics. It contains many tips and tricks in order to build it successfully. You will also learn about what all the different components do. Read on and learn what it takes to build your very […]
Bring a snippet of the Dark Side to your living room with this unique voice-activated lamp. A functional work of art that is both useful and pleasing to look at. Switching on or off? All lamps do that! Changing brightness? Very common! But can yours do this? *cue to turn volume up for intro video* Rad, innit? Besides […]
Space is big. Really big. Owning a small telescope can give a lot of pleasure, but it’s often a struggle trying to locate specific objects in the night sky. In this project I made and integrated an Arduino-powered star-finder with a small reflecting telescope, to allow me to easily find the galaxies, nebulae and clusters that […]
In this tutorial we’re going to make an internet connected smart lamp. This will go deep into internet of things and opens up a world of home automation! The lamp is WiFi connected and built to have an open message protocol. This means you can select whatever control mode you want! It can be controlled […]
In this project, you will build an 8x8x8 LED cube as a display. After building the cube and learning the code basics, you will be able to write your own display animations. It is a great visual for scientific purposes and it will be a nice decorative addition to your room! During the process of […]
n this tutorial we are going to show you how to setup your own temperature and humidity sensor. We are going to use a DHT22 unit, which is a low-cost digital output relative humidity and temperature sensor. The device includes a capacative humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure air temperature DHT22 Specifications Temperature Range: -40 […]
Step 1: Prepare Your Materials For this project, you will need the following materials: For the circuit: 3 pieces of Insulated copper wire (22AWG wire) around 4-6 inches long, stripped on both ends AC/DC Adaptor GWS Mini Servo Double Side Servo arm Servo screw (1.7 x 3mm) Arduino USB Cable A to B For building […]
This gaming box is made from Arduino Uno R3, LoLShield, MPU6050 and Microphone module. With LoLShield, we can show a message/scrolling message or animation picture like: plasma effect, sinewave effect… With MPU6050, we can read value from accelerometer and gyroscope to control movement for simple games like: Pong, Tetris, Invader…And we also make a scrolling […]
Ever wondered what to do with your old basic phones? The advent of a smartphone in last decade made all the basic phones obsolete.
