Nick Smith – Magical Music Box

Nick Smith – Magical Music Box using arduino

This is my Magical Music Box which converts music into a light show. When i was daydreaming what to make for my final project, i wanted something that would make a light show for any song simply by hearing it. Materials used: 1x arduino 8x 1k ohm resistors 5x 10k ohm 7x 560 ohm 3x […]

Arduino LED Lab Coat

Interactive LED Lab Coat using Arduino

This is an instructable for the Interactive LED Lab Coats, showcased at Autodesk University. Check out the videos below! The first is a demo of the colors actuated by the buttons. The second is a demo of the breathalyzer! (this will be explained later) Tools  Sewing machine Soldering iron Wire cutters & strippers Hobby knife […]

Sleep Tracking with Arduino diagram

Sleep Tracking using an Arduino

Background and motivation This project was motivated by two things: my almost complete inability to get out of bed in the morning, and my fondness for recording data from routine activities and making graphs with that data. My main problem with waking up in the morning is that feeling of grogginess along with an intense […]

Arduino Controlled RGB LED Dot Matrix Board

Arduino Controlled RGB LED Dot Matrix Board

This project is a relatively straightforward and simple DIY music board. The Dot Matrix Board will allow any aged person to create their own music and beats. All you need to have is an understanding of Arduino and circuitry. Step 1: Gather Parts Needed [box color=”#985D00″ bg=”#FFF8CB” font=”verdana” fontsize=”14 ” radius=”20 ” border=”#985D12″ float=”right” head=”Major […]

Arduino RGB LED Matrix

5×5 rgb lpd6803-led matrix arduino controlled

what: a 5*5 rgb led matrix, made with arduino and lpd6803 based leds from adafruit. with an pir sensor, it goes on if it detects movements and a ir distace sensor, 1 animation shows the distance you have from the sensor :). why: because its beautiful and cool 😉 my spelling: well, sorry if i […]

An Open Source hackable Digital Clock

An Open Source, hackable Digital Clock

Andrew O’Malley, an amazingly creative maker, created this fanstastic Open Source Arduino-based clock that can display the time in many different ways: if not enough, one can also add his own personal animation. Compared to other clocks based on Arduino, this one has two distinctive features: a single board with the ATmega 328P chip plus […]

arduino LEDs from a reprogramable

Tiny Wearable LED kit – 12 PWM LEDs from a reprogramable ATtiny85

This instructable covers the assembly and use of a Tiny Wearable LED kit.  The kit is useable immediately but is desigend to be hackable and can be reprogrammed to your liking using an ISP programmer or Arduino board and the Arduino IDE. There are not too many tiny implementations of microcontrollers.  The Arduino lillypad is […]

Infinity Mirror

Infinity Mirror – Tony Stark Arc-Reactor thing using arduino

I’m creating a robot, but am finding that it’s better if I break the build down into smaller projects. This is one of those projects, and it seems to have a look that could be used for other things as well. Step 1: Destroy a lady’s compact mirror. I took the mirrors out of their plastic […]

Ultraviolet nightlight ingredients and setup

Ultraviolet nightlight, ingredients and setup

This simple instructable will show you how to make a nightlight out of a translucent container, a bottle of tonic water, an Arduino, and ultraviolet LEDs. If you’ve ever played with a black light, you’ve noticed that some substances glow brightly under these lights. In this case, we’ll be using tonic water because it contains […]

LCD Keypad Shield Quickstart Guide

LCD & Keypad Shield Quickstart Guide using arduino

The 16×2 LCD And Keypad Shield is very simple to use because it’s fully compatible with the Arduino “LiquidCrystal” library. You can initialise the LCD and display messages on it with just a few lines of code, but it also gives you the flexibility to do more advanced projects such as display menu items and […]
