In this ESP8266 tutorial, we are using an ESP-01 module to control an LED over the internet. The ESP8266 is a very cheap yet really effective platform for communicating over the internet. It is also easy to use with an Arduino. After going through this ESP8266 tutorial, you will have the know-how to control any electrical device […]
“Knowledge removes ignorance, just as light removes darkness”, as it is wisely said. In India, the ancient tradition of lighting oil lamps has a special significance. Almost all auspicious ceremonies are commenced by lighting a lamp. Hence came the idea to merge our traditional culture with the digital world using this DIY Arduino Lamp. We did […]
In this article, we are going to interface an FC-28 Soil moisture sensor with an Arduino. This sensor measures the volumetric content of water in soil and gives us the moisture level. The sensor gives us both analog and digital output, so it can be used in both analog and digital mode. We are going to […]
The idea for this Arduino phototransistor project came to me based on an idea that was shared by one of my friends at the FabLab. He talked about how his lab only has stools for people to sit on. Being very uncomfortable, the person succumbs to the discomfort and stands up to move around. In […]
In this tutorial, we will make the communication between the Arduino and Processing. We will make the communication in both the ways, from the Arduino to Processing and from Processing to the Arduino. We will change the color of the serial window in the Processing IDE through the potentiometer value sent from the Arduino IDE. […]
In this project, we are going to make an Arduino Temperature logger that will get the temperature value from the LM35 temperature sensor and the time from the DS3231 Real Time Clock module. Then we will store these values in the SD card file using the mini SD card Module. After that, we will access […]
When I was a kid we went to the drive-in theater to see movies like The Legend of Boggy Creek and Evel Knievel. I loved those movies but I remember just as vividly those retro-cool metal speakers that entered into our car for these campy films. A few years ago I found one of these […]
Big parties need a conversation piece, and what’s better than a drink-making robot? Not only is it a good conversation starter, it also frees up the party host who would normally be the bartender. It turned out that the drink robot was a really good idea. The Mai Tai recipe presented here has the alcohol dialed back making […]
As a simple first Arduino experiment I interfaced a two line LCD (a Displaytech 162B) and an LM35DZ to make a simple Min/Max thermometer. Step 1 – Interfacing the Temperature Sensor This is really very simple. The LM35DZ has three pins, +5V, ground and a variable voltage output to indicate the temperature. I plugged it […]
As thefts are increasing day by day security is becoming a major concern nowadays. In this project we will make a digital door lock system with keypad using Arduino Uno. It will open your door only when the right password is entered and it will start beeping when a wrong password is entered. Components Required 4×4 […]
