Arduino String Appending Operators

Arduino String Appending Operators Code

Just as you can concatenate Strings with other data objects using the StringAdditionOperator, you can also use the += operator and the cconcat() method to append things to Strings. The += operator and the concat() method work the same way, it’s just a matter of which style you prefer. The two examples below illustrate both, […]

Solar powered arduino

Solar powered arduino on the back of a playing card

Here’s a six word tragedy: My arduino needs four AA batteries. Really?  Isn’t this 2012?  Where’s my jetpack?!! Here’s a way to the future — a way to make a solar panel, from scratch, that can power any arduino off of sunlight or even light in your house.  Sort of a peel-and-stick power source for […]

Arduino alarmed Coke can

The useless alarmed Coke can using Arduino

Hi all! This is the most useless project in the world! It consist in a Coke can attached to an Arduino trough a coaxial cable and two resistors that make a sound when an hand is near it. Step 1: Materials and Tools For make that I’ve used: Materials: -1x Arduino Uno Board (or equivalent) […]

Arduino YaNis EOS Controller

Building the YaNis EOS Controller using Arduino

The YaNis EOS controller is a device that allows you to wirelessly control your Canon DSLR from your Android phone. What’s really exciting here is that the Android interface allows you to change most of the camera’s settings (like Shutter Speed, Aperture Size, ISO, White Balance, Focus Position and others) from more than 20 meters […]

Arduino Combi button Lock

Arduino Combi-button Lock optional Android support

Recently, I decided I would like to attempt to make a passcode lock with my newly acquired Arduino Uno, but all the tutorials I could find made use of a modified keypad, something that not every Tom, Dick and Harry has lying about. I therefore decided to set out and make a version using only […]

PEZ Robo Dispenser

PEZ Robo Dispenser Using Arduino

I was strolling down the candy aisle at the supermarket and there it was:  the PEZ dispenser, conjuring up sweet (literally) childhood memories served up by my favorite cartoon characters in squarish sugary pellets.  Then, all of a sudden, an LED went off in my head.  PEZ meets Arduino. In this age of over-automation,  where robots […]

Quality of Life Meter

Quality of Life Meter

Harsh new rules at work getting you down? Overtime sucking the life out of you? Or maybe things are great, either way now you can show your co-workers and management exactly how you feel about your job without a single meeting, memo, or team bonding exercise. This is the Quality of Life Meter. Boss take […]

Arduino Robot Arm

Modifying a Robot Arm using Arduino

Essentially another tutorial involving controlling DC motors. In this post I’m going to first alter a robot arm I had built previously from a beginners kit so that it can be controlled from Arduino. Then I’m going to write a series of posts on different ways to control the robot arm using Processing and other […]

RC Paper Tank

RC Paper Tank – Bring your 3D models to life

Bring your 3D models to life! In this instructable we will custom make a remotely controlled tank. We will infuse paper-craft with an arduino based system. This tank will be controlled on a android based phone though a bluetooth connection. I’ve strived to create something with a pleasing fit and finish. Remote control is also quite cheap […]
