Arduino circuit 1

ASCII Table using Arduino

Demonstrates the advanced serial printing functions by generating a table of characters and their ASCII values in decimal, hexadecimal, octal, and binary. For more on ASCII, see asciitable.com Circuit image developed using Fritzing. For more circuit examples, see the Fritzing project page None, but the Arduino has to be connected to the computer. Code /* ASCII table Prints […]

A Simple and Very Easy Inverted Pendulum Balancing Robot

A Simple and Very Easy Inverted Pendulum Balancing Robot

Let’s make a simple inverted balancing robot, and operate it. You need only half a day to do them, if you have an arduino and some materials. [a video of a robot you would make] introduction: After a few work with arduino, I have thought of making an inverted pendulum. Then I had two policies […]

Wii Nunchuck Arduino

Wii Nunchuck Arduino Spirit Level

Thanks to: http://jeonlab.wordpress.com/ Since I have read an article on todbot blog, I bought a couple of Wii Nunchucks from ebay. I don’t remember how much I paid for them, but it was much cheaper than buying the accelerometer breakout boards. With the nunchuck data reading library shared by todbot (Thanks!), I could easily read the accelerometer data […]

Nama Instrument 1.0

Construct Nama Instrument 1.0 Using Arduino

A motion sensing soft-circuit interface. The following instructable will guide you through the construction of your own personalized Nama Instrument. I’d love to hear some feedback. Hope you like it and it serves you somehow! : ) Access http://www.viraseres.com/nama to download the project’s open source files and access the full description of the project. INTRODUCTION: […]

Arduino Wex Robot

Wex, the One Eyed Watcher using an Arduino

Wex detects your location with ultrasonic sensors then follows you with his one flashing eye.  His red “heartbeat” can be seen through his mouth. Step 1: Parts needed include: Arduino Two ping ultrasonic sensors Futaba s3103 servo Radio Shack 276-0016 7 color led Radio Shack  276-036 flashing red led 9 volt battery 480 ohm resistor […]

OpenSquare Write big with a RC car

OpenSquare – Write big with a RC car

Hi there, You’re going to transform any RC toy car into a big message writer that can be used to transform your city squares into witty messages, political statements or beautiful drawings, and for less than 20$. The idea is to drop a trail of powder or paint behind the car to write the message. […]

Arduino Sentry Gun

Building a Sentry Gun with Laser Trip Wire System and Arduino

*NOTE* THIS PROJECT IS DONE BY A GROUP OF STUDENTS FROM SINGAPORE POLYTECHNIC. Concept: Trigger gun when laser is blocked by intruding object. Note: Tilting is included for expandability but not used in this project. Skill Level: Basic soldering and basic metal works Things You Need: Toy Gun(Any will do, preferably a semi-auto) Continuous Rotation […]

I just wanna hold your hand

I Just Wanna Hold Your Hand

Conducting energy through people to stimulate tangible public interactions http://ijustwannaholdyourhand.com/ http://vimeo.com/56350598 What did we do? We put together an Arduino, some wire, a Mac mini and a DLP Projector, then created a pair of hands out of aluminum. We additionally 3D printed some wall plates that resemble light switch plates, but instead of holding an […]

Forget Me Not Remote Flower Watering

Forget Me Not- Remote Flower Watering

Hi everyone, Lucy Matchett, Nicole Yi Messier, and Joselyn McDonald (Snax_and_Macs) made a remote flower-watering device so you can water your loved ones’ plants when you water your own. We used Arduinos, a photoresistor, a servo, Arduino and Processing sketches, Spacebrew, and a little elbow grease to put it all together. We’ve posted the instructions, […]
