A year or so ago, I wrote up an Instructable about installing a bunch of LEDs in a Lego Mini Cooper. The innovation, such as it was, was that the LEDs could be controlled with a smartphone (or through any web browser, for that matter). As I laboriously described in that Instructable, most of the effort back […]
This example example uses the Arduino board to receive data from the computer. The Arduino boards turns on an LED when it receives the character ‘H’, and turns off the LED when it receives the character ‘L’. The data can be sent from the Arduino serial monitor, or another program like Processing (see code below), […]
UPDATES Nov 23, 2013: SensoDuino 0.160 gets a face left. Nov 19. 2031: OPINION: The Amazing Synergy Between Arduino & Android. Nov 19, 2013: SensoDuino 0.159 is out. Android phone date (y,m,d) and time (h,m,s) are supported as sensors. Support for Android KitKat (4.4/API 19). INTRODUCTION Think of SensoDuino as having over a dozen virtual shields for your Arduino each […]
Now I am lucky enough to work at the greatest company in the world as a University of Waterloo, co-op student. It might not even be a company you’ve heard of yet. They’re named Upverter and we are trying to change the way people design, build, share and collaborate on electronics. My job (also the […]
Since childhood, I always wanted to try my hands on electronics. Recently I bought the Arduino and started exploring it. In this process, I got to know more about Light Dependent Resistors (LDR). Somehow, I stumble across this idea. Basically, it’s an electric sunflower which does the opposite of actual sunflower. It points to the […]
Hi guys, my name is Pedro Castelani and I’m bringing you my first instructable: building a two way radio with arduino for, well, whatever you need it for. In this project, we will make two seperate circuits which will act as both reciever and transmitter. The most important components are two arduino boards (all of […]
mo.momi Led strips are amazing! Firewalker-led-sneakers(http://learn.adafruit.com/firewalker-led-sneakers) by Adafruit inspired me. I wanna change a way to control it, instead of “pressure-sensitive”, I use a accelerometer sensor judging the motion of slipper. It’s simple, I complete this version only calculating the acceleration on “z” axis, weather i’m speed up or slow down. Led will “flow” if […]
Hey guys! I Hope you already enjoyed my previous instructable “How to make your own Arduino training platform” and you are ready for a new one, as usual I made this tutorial to guide you step by step while making this kind of super amazing low cost electronic projects which is the “CNC plotter machine” […]
Do you get nightmares of losing your YouTube Subscribers? If you do, you are not the only one. Luckily I have made this “YouTube Desktop Notifier” to keep me up-to-date with my channels Subscriber and View Counts. This very simple DIY project cost me around $10 and it now keeps me in track with my […]
This sketch blinks the Esplora’s RGB LED. It goes through all three primary colors (red, green, blue), then it combines them for secondary colors(yellow, cyan, magenta), then it turns on all the colors to create white. For best results, cover the LED with a piece of white paper to see the colors blend. Circuit Only […]
