In this project, we will go over how to build a vibration detector circuit.This is a circuit which can detect and measure flex, touch, vibration, and shock.The sensor we will use to detect these movements is a piezo vibration sensor from Measuremenet Specialists (MEAS). The sensors are a thin strip of piezoelectric material with a […]

Control an iPod with the Arduino
This tutorial will describe a way of controlling an iPod remote, and thus, an easy way of getting some music and sound out of your Arduino project. The remote we used was an unofficial remote I found on the worldwide auction site for around 10 USD, an opto-isolator can be found in your local electronics […]
DIY: Arduino Based Ohmmeter
This is a project based on Arduino board which can measure the unknown resistance values and perform diode test and continuity testing. When we connect the unknown resistor on the breadboard circuit, the 16×2 LCD displays the resistor value and when we connect a diode the LCD displays the type of diode if it is […]
Arduino Powered Four Letter Word Generator
Build an Arduino-powered version of the “Four Letter Word Generator” (FLW). This version generates “words” on the fly – it does not use a list. The “original” version from the 1970’s used B7971 nixie alphanumeric tubes. These tubes are getting hard to find and they’re certainly expensive. They also require interfacing with high voltage and […]
HSM-20G Interface with Arduino Uno
The HSM-20G is an analog humidity and temperature sensor that outputs analog voltage respects to relative humidity and temperature. However from this sensor relative humidity is found along with temperature. Relative humidity is the percentage of moistures of airs for a particular temperature [1]. Feature: 1. Storage range: -20°C to 70°C 2. Operating range: 0°C […]
Real-time room temperature on your Website using Arduino
This is how to push high resolution real-time data from Arduino-based temperature sensor to your web page without any server-side coding. Arduino is a great device for collecting, storing and transferring data from various sensors but there are times you need to make your data accessible from any place over the internet, like I did […]
How To Make a PC Control Robot
Do you ever tried to control your robot using your PC or laptop? Controlling a robot using PC or laptop is often being a fun for the student or hobbyist. Thus during this article you will be tend to learn how to control your robot using your PC or laptop. Here it is assumed that […]
PSoC 4 Pioneer Kit Community Project#042 – Hangman Game
Hello! It has been our Friday tradition for the past few weeks to end with a game. This week we have the Hangman game. In this game the user will be using two Pmod boards, an LCD and Button board to display outputs and generate inputs for the system. The user will be presented with […]
Build a big crane game using Arduino
How to build a whole room crane game. Based on the arcade style ‘Crane Game’ or ‘Claw Machine’. This is a continuation of a previus instructable titled CRANE GAME in which we built a 2-axis crane game in a door frame. We have now added a third axis and wireless control. And made it big. A few technical and functional improvements: […]
Battery powered device hardware design tips
I’m working on a prototype product(Wifi motion sensor) that will be powered from a battery source, it has a mega328(arduino bootloader, with sleep mode on and wake on interrupt,and WDT in case it hangs up), a PIR motion sensor , and a CC3000 break out board. Power saving is done in software, but what type […]
