So this Lazy Old Geek (L.O.G.) hasn’t been able to do an Instructable for a few years. At 70 years old, the brain doesn’t work as well as it used to and it’s hard to focus on big projects let alone try to write about them. (I am entering Arduino Contest.) But with the help […]
Projects
Tim’s Cybot Arduino NANO Remote Control
This project is to create an Infrared Remote Control to control the Original Cybot received with the magazine Ultimate Real Robots, started back in 2001. Reason for making the remote:(a little history) Before the issue of the parts for the IR handset, Cybot was put into different modes by selecting DIP Switches. (There was no […]
Condensation Risk Evaluator
Hi everyone, I work as a builder even though I’ve been always really interested in new technologies. I’ve learned a little about 3d printing, Arduino and electronic issues reading a lot. I visit this web regularly so I would like to make my little contribution. In my job sometimes it is not so easy to […]
Adaptable Sun Visor Cap
The project conducted as part of the Computational Design and Digital Fabrication seminar in the ITECH masters program. The sun blinds you and you have no hand free? No problem anymore… Here you can find all the important information to build your own adaptable sun visor cap. As well all the files for cutting and programming are […]
A Complete Beginner’s Guide to SMD Soldering
Alright so soldering is pretty straightforward for through-hole components, but then there are times when you need to go tiny *insert ant-man reference here*, and the skills you learnt for TH soldering just dont apply anymore.Welcome to the world of Surface Mount Device (SMD) soldering, where components are placed on tiny pads, and solder on […]
PKE Meter Geiger Counter
I have been wanting to build a Geiger counter for a long time to complement my Peltier Cooled Cloud Chamber. There is (hopefully) not really much useful purpose in owning a Geiger counter but I just love the old Russian tubes and thought it would be great fun to build one. Then I came across the […]
Tabletop Pinball Machine Using Evive- Arduino Based Embedded Plaform
Another weekend, another exciting game! And this time, it’s none other than everybody’s favorite arcade game – Pinball! This project will show you how to make your very own Pinball machine easily at home. All you’d need are components from the evive Starter Kit, some laser-cut parts, colors and papers to decorate your machine, and […]
Body-ultrasound Sonography With Arduino
My hobby and passion is to realize physics projects. One of my last work is about ultrasonic sonography. As always I tried to make it as simple as possible with parts you can get on ebay or aliexpress. So let’s take a look how far I can go with my simple items… I was inspired […]
The “Flute” of Imitation
As one of the top ten common instruments played worldwide, the amount of beginners studying the flute comes in quite a quantity. While The “Flute” of Imitation does not train one’s breath control, the “instrument” concentrates on the fundamental fingerings, crucial to familiarize with for every player when player higher-level tunes. The “Flute” of imitation […]
HAVE FUN WITH BICOLOR MATRIX 32×32
Today I will share following topics base on a bicolor matrix led 32×32: D.I.Y a bicolor led matrix 32×32. How to control led board above with NodeMCU ESP8266 via B.A.M method. Introduce and share my code for some cool real time clock projects with this bicolor led board. Let’s start with some videos: Rainbow letters […]
