Sous-vide cooking is a great new way of cooking food. I will not explain why and how it works here… for great recipes and explanations, you can check out those guys : http://modernistcuisine.com/2013/01/why-cook-sous-… Unfortunately, a good (and I mean precise to the half °C) sous-vide machine is very very expensive (500, 1000$ or more). If […]
I started with the Instructable from Kyle Brinckerhoff; http://www.instructables.com/id/Ardu-pong-the-Arduino-based-pong-console/ Thanks Kyle! and the following at Make magazine http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2007/08/arduino-pong.html and I see the original code is attributed to Pete Lamonica Thanks Pete!! I am using the paddles instead of the joy stick and I have made it for 2 players. Also I added some sound. I […]
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 […]
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 […]
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: […]
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 […]
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. […]

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, […]
This is a super simple and easily customizable little synthesizer. This is my first time using the Arduino and also with acrylic, both I found very fun to work with though. This is also my first Instructables so hopefully I have explained this well enough. Step 1: Part and tools For the innards: Arduino Uno […]
