Cash rules everything around me. C.R.E.A.M. Get the money. Arduinos are showing up everywhere. Even in space. But what about the lowly tip jar? No. Are Arduino projects giving the Wu-Tang Clan the proper respect they deserve? Not even close! Rectification. That’s what this is about. Interactive tipping. Dolla dolla bill y’all. Step 1: Materials […]

Arduino Based Four Legged Robot
The name of our robot is FIER and here is a video of it saying hello to the world. In this instructable, I will try to show you the basic steps to making your own walking robot for the most bang for your buck. You may be asking why did I use balsa wood as […]
Analog audio panel for PC using Arduino
Have you ever struggled with audio settings in control panel in middle of a VoIP call? Or, wondered if the other guy can hear you properly? I have. My work requires great deal of remote conference calls using PC. The first thing I wonder always when starting is if my audio settings — mic volume, […]
4X4X4 LED Cube w/ Arduino Un
As someone who is very new to digital electronics this LED cube was fun to make, challenging and a great lesson in soldering. If you have some patience (64 LED’s to solder!) and steady hands, this project will be well worth it in the end! Step 1: Materials & Tools Materials: -64 LED’s ( I […]
Vacation Pet Feeder from Recycled Materials
If you are a pet owner, going on vacation can be stressful. Usually, you need a friend or neighbor to come over every day and feed your pets. However, by enslaving robots you can keep your pet happy and enjoy a stress-free holiday. To save money and learn something new, I decided to make my […]
HexiLogger, an Arduino based data logger
The purpose of this project was to create a simple, portable device that would periodically read sensors and then store the sensor data so it could be retrieved later. The result is the HexiLogger, “hexi” because it can support up to six different sensor inputs and “logger” because it will store the input data on […]
Open Source Server Room Monitor using Arduino
This server room environmental monitoring system is a low cost high performance device with the same onboard features as commercial devices costing hundreds of dollars more. In addition to a low cost platform we will provide low cost sensors for many important devices to insure your equipment stays safe and sound. Full instructions are available […]
iTime clock in a Mac Mini box using Arduino
After the untimely death of my Mac Mini (the last thing Apple I never buy), I recycled her limping in a clock display LEDs. Technically, there is not rocket science: an Arduino reads the time from an external clock and displays a matrix of 8×6 colored LEDs for hours, minutes, seconds and a linear array […]
The UCube: Design & Print 3D Objects by flipping switches
This instructable goes through how to design and print a variety of 3D models using a system called the ‘UCube’. Note: I would love to eventually publish detailed instructions on how to make your own UCube, but since the design is still changing and improving, this post will gloss over a lot of those details […]
Open Source Hearing Impaired Alarm Clock using Arduino
Activities of daily living (ADL) are self-care activities that are usually taken for granted, since as the name implies they are performed on a daily basis. If you have ever ended up in a cast, or on crutches you can empathize how menial daily activities can suddenly be very difficult to perform. Waking up in the morning and maintaining a schedule […]
