This is my second instructable. i want to share some of the basic things i made using the arduino i am so busy lately. then i got the chance to have this spare time… inspired by my former student and a fellow co league to share this arduino based wireless automation. this automation was done […]
We can instantly open a door or control anything we can connect. It works from any iPhone, Android, or PC. After connecting something we want to control, download the free app to a PC, open a port, and control it remotely from anywhere. It’s open source so anyone can modify it to sense and control […]
Like me, you may have a few old Arduino boards or ATmega8 chips (in the boards) laying around from when you were first playing with Arduino. Those chips can still be really useful as the heart of a tiny “Minimal Arduino” setup. A normal Arduino board contains support components that make it easy to use. […]
Been seeing few DIYs on how to establish a communication between MATLAB application and Arduino that is hardwired to PC. However, I haven’t encountered anything that control Arduino via MATLAB wirelessly using the ENC28J60 compatible Ethernet shield. In this ible’, I’m going to show the simplest way to control Arduino using MATLAB wirelessly. WHAT YOU […]
Multiple synthesizer projects have been done for the Arduino, but few have been able to utilize the full power of the Arduino processor. DZL from GeekPhysical wrote a 4 voice wavetable synthesizer that is one of the more advanced software based synths for the Arduino. It has wavetables included (sine, saw, square and triangle) and […]
Never again will you have to dismantle a finished project just to reuse an Arduino board! This tutorial will go through the steps involved in fabricating your own Arduino-compatible circuit using just ~$8 of parts (this includes the ATMega chip!). This is perfect for installing and embedding in permanent pieces, as you don’t need to […]
In this tutorial learn how to make your own backlit-LCD Arduino shield. Let’s see how simple it is to make your own Arduino LCD shield. Sure – you can just buy one, but where’s the fun in that? Getting Started Our LCD is a two line, sixteen character backlit LCD. It has a typical HD44780-compatible […]
This a Knight Rider Style LED Chaser Done with a Arduino Duemilanove with an ATmega328 chip. Step 1: Things you’l need: 6 LEDs (any color) 1 Breadboard 1 100 Ohm Resistor 12 Breadboard Jumpers 1 Arduino Duemilanove “or” Decimila 1 USB cable with A-type connector on one end, and B-type on the other. (See photos) […]
High-power LEDs over 1W are now quite inexpensive. I’m sure many of you are incorporating LEDs as light sources in your projects. However I realize that the finding and configuring the power supply is still not as simple as it can be; commercially available LED drivers are convenient, but often overkill or not flexible. Even […]
Introduction You’ve started modifying sketches, and played a bit with the onboard LED (or if you have an NG, an LED you added). The next step is to start adding onto the hardware component of the Arduino. We will do this by adding a solderless breadboard to our setup, connecting up new parts with wire. Say […]
