This Instructable describes a lower-cost, battery-powered wireless IOT sensor layer for my earlier Instructable:Â LoRa IOT Home Environmental Monitoring System. If you haven’t already viewed this earlier Instructable, I recommend reading the introduction for an overview of the capabilities of the system which are now extended to this new sensor layer. The original LoRa IOT Home […]
The aim of the project is to make a wearable t-shirt that displays an evocative graphic when air pollution is above a set threshold. The graphic is inspired by the classic game “brick breakers”, in that the car is like a paddle which spits out the exhaust (which are like balls) that “hit” pieces of […]
Introduction Hello Everyone!This is my first guide and (hopefully) the first one in a series of guides on my quest to create an open-source RGB-LED visual poi. To keep it simple first, this is going to result in a simple led-poi featuring remote control via IR and all kinds of colour-change-animations. Keep in mind: This […]
In this Instructable we will have a look at modifying a hot-air popcorn machine to turn it into a fully automatic and temperature-controlled home coffee roaster. Roasting coffee at home is surprisingly simple, and even something as basic as a frying pan can do the trick with enough patience and practice. In most basic terms, […]
Jojo is a super handsome cat.I love him in every aspect, except he keeps waking me up everyday 4am in the morning for his food, so it’s time to get an automatic cat feeder to save my sleep. However, he is so handsome that when I want to find a right automatic cat feeder on […]
In this project I will show you how to build a solar-powered Raft Bird Repeller that will get rid of those pesky birds that poop on your raft. Step 1: Intro If you have ever been on a raft, you know just how relaxing and fun they can be to hang out on. One thing […]
This car was made as a creative activity for students from Erazmus project. The Small Car celebrated big succes. So I’ve decided to share this small, unassuming and yet very educative project with community. It’s ideal to entertain students, for instance during public open day at schools. This project will help students master their 3D […]
We’ll be making a diorama presenting the water cycle, using Arduino and some motors to add movement and lighting. It has a school feel – because it is actually a school project! The presentation scenario is this: The sun rises in the morning [One servo motor moves the sun]. Water evaporates from the sea [One […]
I recently finished the installation Equally diverse, which is made of a series of lamps that react to the sensors placed in a rug underneath the lamps.Here is how I made the rug with pressure sensors.I hope you will find it useful. 🙂 Step 1: How to Make the Sensors For the pressure sensors, I […]
This project allow us to simulate presence and to detect movements in our home. We can configure a network of devices installed in differents rooms of our home all of them controlled by a main device. This project combines these features on a single device (PICTURE 1): It is a presence simulator: the device switchs on and off one […]
