Introduction Are you looking to get your data gathering project hooked into the “Internet-of-Things”? Then check out data.sparkfun.com! It makes posting data to the web as easy as constructing a URL and POSTing it to a server. I wanted to create a quick project to test out SparkFun’s data logging service. Combining an Arduino, XBee […]

Weather Monitor
This Instructable shows you how to build a micro-controller based weather monitoring device. Built on the Arduino Uno board it can easily be extended and modified should you have additional sensors at hand. Main requirements: – Measure temperature (accuracy +/- 0,5 degree Kelvin) – Measure barometric air pressure (+/- 0,1 Pascal) – Display measured values […]
Tutorial 15: Arduino Serial Thermometer
The Arduino reads temperature from a MCP9700 temperature sensor IC and displays the temperature in the Arduino IDE serial monitor window. Also see the Arduino LCD thermometer tutorial (tutorial 14). Prerequisites Complete Tutorial 9: Using the Arduino Serial Port before attempting this tutorial. Components Besides an Arduino Uno board, USB cable, wire links and a […]
Build A Speech Controlled Quadropod Using Arduino
This is my first post on Instructable and I am super excited to share my knowledge! My original robot post is here: Spryo SpoonTail which is just my robot showing some tricks but with a tethered control. In this Instructable I am going to show you how to make a quadrapod of your own and […]
DIY Low Cost Arduino Mobile Development Platform
I have wanted to build my own robot for awhile now. But after many tried and failed attempts, I was losing hope that may ever happen. I discovered that there wasn’t a small, robust, super easy to add-on to, robot that was within my budget to get. After hours of research and many robot kits later, i […]
APR9600 Voice Recording and Playback System with JRC286D Chip ICStation Mega 2560 Compatible Arduino
ICStation team introduce you this APR9600 voice recording and playback system used in elevator based on the ICStation Mega2560 compatible with Arduino. It uses DC5V voltage to work. When you press the different keys, the loudspeaker will sound that which floor you arrive. This design uses a APR9600 voice chip as the core of the […]
Making the TFF: a dress that gets excited when tweeted
The idea of this dress comes from a series of tweets with online friends @shineslike and @arduinogirl. @shineslike and I had taken a half day Arduino workshop given by @arduinogirl at the MCN 2011 conference. I was immediately inspired creatively by the sensory and interactive opportunities. Over the next few months I struggled with the electronics […]
Ultrasonic Dimmer (Without Humming Or Buzzing Noise)
I have been working on this project for a while and whilst it is still under development I decided to write a short guide after several requests to do so. The dimmer uses an interrupt driven XL-Maxsonar EZ1 ultrasound range finder to measure the distance between the sensor and your hand. By moving your hand […]
