I’ve seen a lot of ways to communicate to Arduino over the net, but none of them could handle pushing back the messages from Arduino to the client(you) in real time and vice versa. In this instructable you will learn how to connect to your Arduino and control it over the net, set up a […]
With our new project, JustAddSharks, we are very keen to support the development of open source control software for laser cutters. We are more than happy for people to modify our laser cutters, replace the control system with something suitably open source and then let us know how it goes. Realistically though we’re going to […]
We have all seen the sweet videos on the tube! You know the magical water fountains that seems to “freeze” the water droplets in mid air, or even make them go backwards! I’ve been fascinated by these “magical” thingamabobs for quite some while now, and a couple of days ago I decided to make my very […]
This page provides general information to students enrolled in the EML 6808 course, Analysis and Control of Robot Manipulators. Prerequisites for the course are: EML 4312C, EML 5271, or C.I. Kinematics and dynamics of multibody systems. The topics to be covered include: basic components of robotic systems; selection of coordinate frames; homogeneous transformations; solutions to […]
After long research and trial and error, I have came up to a new walkthrough regarding this nice chip, the L293D. Each project is one project and each one has its own unique power configurations, so you must be aware of the best battery choice and how to distribute voltage through your robot. I strongly […]
Upon the needs of the (2014) World Barista Championship Rules and Regulations, an adequate and precise time measuring is needed during the competition. These measurements are usually done by regular stopwatches with all the benefits (ease of use, common availability) and drawbacks (two stopwatches needed for each judge, as well as some mathematics are necessary […]
We have kids. I love them to bits but they keep hiding the remote control for the satellite and TV when they put the children’s channels on. After this happening on a daily basis for several years, and after my darling wife allowing me to have an Arduino for Christmas I decided that it was […]
Introduction: Our main goal with the Tiich system is to design a teaching aid/tool which would replace the conventional whiteboard in a classroom environment. We want our system to be used as an electronic based white board, having all the written information easily be saved and submitted to all the students in the classroom. We […]
I am taking a Children and Technology course for my MLS this semester, and one of our assignments is to create a toy using the LilyPad Arduino development board. The LilyPad Arduino is used to create e-textiles that you can program to do various things. In this instructable, I will walk you through the process […]
I wanted to see if I could operate my Roomba remotely and get it to report its status via Twitter while I was away from home. I also wanted to make the device independent of a computer. This is the solution I came up with and it works very well. Follow @TheRoomba on Twitter to […]
