Hi folks, Here’s an interesting project for all you creative minds out there. We are going to build an android phone controlled RC car. Nothing could be more fascinating than remote controlled cars. This one uses Bluetooth for communication and accelerometer of the mobile device for gesture control. The reason behind the use of a […]
During the COVID-19 crisis, how to spend a lot of quarantine time at home? In addition to improving cooking skills and doing sports, game lovers can also make their own unique GameBoy game console!

In this ESP8266 tutorial, we are using an ESP-01 module to control an LED over the internet. The ESP8266 is a very cheap yet really effective platform for communicating over the internet. It is also easy to use with an Arduino. After going through this ESP8266 tutorial, you will have the know-how to control any electrical device […]
Energino is a plug-load meter that measures the amount of power consumed by whatever DC electrical appliance is plugged into its. It was originally designed to monitor the energy consumption of simple networking devices such as Ethernet switches and WiFi access points, but it can be used to monitor any DC appliance. Energino “sits” between […]

Hello everyone! In this instructable I will show you how to make a low cost 3d printer that I designed! It should cost around $150 US dollars or $175 Canadian dollars, if you buy from the links provided in this project (parts are from Aliexpress). You can also buy locally but it will cost more […]
Have you ever wanted to build a project that had could detect the presence of a person in a room? If so, then you can do this very easily using the PIR (Passive Infra Red) Motion sensor. This Arduino motion sensor can detect the presence of a person in a room. Therefore, you can build projects such […]
I was looking for a project that combined my three favorite things – working in my shop, building cool stuff for my bar and of course, drinking beer. After a couple of weeks in the old country drinking “the Guinness”, I decided my I’d put a keg of “Moothers’ milk” in my kegerator and prolong my vacation […]
The heart rate, also referred to as pulse rate, has been recognized as a vital sign since the beginning of medicine, and it is directly related to a person’s cadiovascular health. Today, we are going to make a PC-based heart rate monitor system using an Arduino board and Easy Pulse V1.1 sensor. Easy Pulse is […]
In case you are unfamiliar with the most amazing new way to physically “check in” to foursquare here is a video that will explain it all: Mark Your Territory is a fully open-source system but because it interacts with the physical world as well as the digital one, some construction is necessary beyond just simply […]
