This example shows you how to read different analog sensors to change the brightness of the three colors in the RGB LED. In this example you will read the amplitude from the microphone, the amount of light on the light sensor, and the position of the linear potentiometer. These three sensors will control the intensity […]
In this project, I made an infinity mirror based on a dodecahedron that reacts to sound . Step 1: Materials Essential materials: Arduino Uno 3mm thick 100x50cm MDF 2mm thick 100x50cm plexiglass 3 meter WS2812B LEDstrip 60 LEDs/m Sound Detection Sensor Module 3-PIN Thin electric wire (10ish meter total) Breadboard Perfboard/stripboard Simple rectangular rocker switch […]
A few years ago I saw an Instructable where Groover had used a pair of DVD-RW drives to make a pocket laser engraver. Inspired by the idea, driven by the recent purchase of a full-sized 50 watt CO2 laser cutter, and roused by the launch of the Microcontroller contest I took the decision to have a crack at making my own […]
My First ever Robot. It tracks objects using Infra-red sensors, and has basic AI that follows and avoid objects. I will describe the how I made this robot, and upload some videos. Version 1 (16 Dec 2011): —————–The components used ———————- I actually planned this robot before making it. I didn’t use all the parts […]
I play chess pretty poorly and have always wanted to get better, but I don’t even own a chess set. I decided I wanted to make my own set, but with a twist. I have made a chess board with a secret drawer that is locked unless the pieces are arranged on the board in […]
Intro: If you’ve got an Arduino Uno and want to start duplicating projects without having to buy an Uno every time… get ready to live! This instructable will show you how to move your projects (that do not require serial communication) onto a breadboard for prototyping or expansion. If you’re looking for a more permanent […]
Three years ago I saw “My New Flame” by MORITZ WALDEMEYER, INGO MAURER UND TEAM 2012 at the museum gift shop, and feel in love with the idea. I hoped to recreate something mesmerizing, enjoyable, functional and interesting to watch, but with a slight twist. I certainly couldn’t make anything comparable to the their beautiful work of art. […]
The best part of haunted houses and amusement park rides is getting to see pictures of your friends screaming in terror. To get these kinds of pictures requires perfect timing. The best way to get this is with an electronic control circuit. So in this project, I am going to show you how to make […]
When using an Arduino, it may result quite annoying to not be able to use it just because you do not have a computer available. Maybe the Windows or Mac OS isn’t compatible, you don’t have any computer at all or you just want more freedom for interfacing your board. The solution: a simple OTG […]
This instructible will show you how I built (and you can also build) an Arduino Timelapse Panning controller for GoPro cameras. There are obviously some refinements that can be made to the design, but in general I am very happy with the results that I’ve captured with it. Check out the video below for a […]
