Ah yes. It has been a long time since I posted an Instructable…well here goes: It has been a while since I have been otivated to write an ‘ible. During this idle time I have been writing, rewriting and editing code as well as designing lots of PCBs. For my new ible which I have […]
Vinyl cutters are used in the sign writing industry, and are great for making stickers, signs and graphics. I would like to thank Instructable members silverjimmy and Groover for their fantastic laser cutter instructables, without which I would not of been able to complete this project. My idea is to take an old printer and […]
Have a problem with my wireless bridge. It works for a some time then, despite it saying everything it fine, refuses to connect wirelessly. All it needs is to be turned off and on again and it works again (for a while!). I decided that what was needed is some form of circuit to reset […]
Have you ever wanted a little plant to brighten up your desk or home, but you’re afraid that you’ll forget to water it? Fear no longer! Using an Arduino, a scavenged wall-wart, and a peristaltic pump, you can set up your plant to be watered as often as you like, from a jug or any […]
This page maintains the necessary documentation (hardware & software) for recreating the Solar Hardware Module (“Solar Module”) using either Arduino UNO or TI Launchpad. Prior to creating the solar module, we performed several experiments using a custom built solar panel fixture. For more information on the solar panel fixture, see link below. Solar Panel Fixture […]
This Arduino-powered vocal effects box pitch shifts and distorts incoming audio signals to produce a wide variety of vocal effects. This project is my first experiment with real-time digital signal processing using Arduino. It samples an incoming microphone signal at a rate of about 40kHz, manipulates the audio digitally, and then outputs 8 bit audio at 40kHz. […]
In many cases switches are just switches. They directly control the flow of electricity to an appliance, flashlight or mains-voltage lamp. An example of this is the switch on the wall in your living room. In many cases nowadays however, switches are digital sensors, meaning that instead of directly controlling a high-powered device, they are […]
Our final project for ECE 4760 provides a simple but effective exercise monitoring system of the user’s walk or run. With an increase of the number of health conscious individuals hoping to remain fit, we designed a system that allows the user to keep track of his or her total number steps, current speed, and […]
Many times we are faced with a heat containing coffee and don’t know if the fluid is at the proper temperature and it is impossible to know just by looking at the bottle ended up losing time with a coffee that is cold and we get upset about it. This however indicates maker by a […]
This is a project I came up with that was inspired by my love for bacon! This is an alarm clock that is designed to wake you up with the smell of bacon. With the help of an arduino the alarm clock will already have the bacon aroma filling the room to wake you up […]
