It all started as a weekend project with my kids and soon enough I got sucked into a 4 month project with their school ! The idea was to get a small group of kids aged 6 to 9 to participate to a robotics contest (http://www.eurobot.org/eng/index.php). It was a fun journey and they did really […]

DIY Driving Simulator using an Arduino
If you haven’t noticed, as soon as you clicked into this instructable, you are now following me if you weren’t already, you Favorited the instructable, and you voted for this instructable in all contests it is entered in. Then the buttons all dissappeared. It’s okay though. If you really want to, you can still go […]
BIKEDUINO – Stopping Point Predictor for bike riders
The project consists in a Arduino that gets the speed of the bike from a dynamo and it controls a laser which points always to the point where the bike is gonna stop if it continues going at the same speed. Used Hardware: Arduino mini Atmega328 Laser Servo Dynamo Battery pack 4 x 1,5 V […]
Version 2.0 Arduino Controlled Car Tracking System based on SMS
This system is upgraded version of previous project… You will be able to track your car after you build this system, you will call the device then it will send you an sms which includes LAT, LON and Google Map link for just one touch to see where it is. Before you start to build […]
Building a Doodle Bot kit from DAGU
Doodle Bot is a very simple beginners robot that can write messages using white board markers, jumbo chalk or crayons. The kit comes with all parts including an Arduino compatible controller and a screwdriver. You will need to supply 4x AAA batteries and a suitable USB cable to program the robot. A large, full colour […]
Construct An Algorithmic Noise Machine Using Arduino
This project is a part of experiments done while doing an artist in residence at Instructables. You can see the other projects here. You can use bit-shifting as an alternative way of creating “music”. This principle enables you to squeeze as much processing power as possible out of the Arduino while creating novel and interesting […]
Arduino & Processing – Getting values from SRF05 ultrasound sensor & serial port
I’ve started to delve into Processing and passing values between Processing and Arduino. If you’re wondering what Processing is, basically its an open source programming language for vizualising data that can interface with Arduino either by reading values/ pins or by setting them. Just remember that they are 2 very different things and require 2 […]

UPDATE 03/17/11: I would love to win a Laser cutter in the Epilog challenge as it would help the small DIY community in Calcutta, […]
Tissue Box Guitar – Light Strings using Arduino
the idea of anything can be an instrumental music has been always in my mind so i made a wooden tissue box that i installed inside it a guitar of light strings Step 1: Building Box i made this wooden tissue box Step 2: Wiring we make the LDR wiring on a the top shelf of […]
123D Scanner – Home made 3D Scanner
Hey – have a look at my new project HERE In this project I built a 3D Scanner, that enables generating 3D models of physical objects. The files can later be viewed in 3D software (GLC Player, Sketchup, Rhino, or sites such as http://3dfile.io) and even manipulated into .STL file and 3D printed. The software […]
