IP Control Car was launched in 2001. I make the similar function car utilizing commercialized products. The concept of Car No.02 is to utilize commercialized products, and I am an amateur in electrical. So, do not blame me that the system is not sophisticated, i.e. servo & speed controller control system and webcam system are […]
In some point in the life of every electronics hobbyist the need to make a clock is borned, in my case it was about a month after I soldered my first part on a board, but back then I didn’t have the right tools, parts and knowledge to do such a thing. But after about 2 […]
In this Instructable I am going to show how to make a program in Processing that analyzes sound on your computer and sends data to an Arduino that controls an LED matrix to show the spectrum analysis. I will be explaining where to get materials, explaining the coding and wiring needed and providing example programs […]
What is does: It searches for the brightest light source like the sun. Step 1: How it works How it works: I’d made a sensor of 4 LDRs with sheets between them The withe stips are the LDRs When the stick on top is righted to the sun or the brightest point the four […]
This summer I wanted to combine my two loves of plant science and engineering. Thus I am constructing my very own greenhouse in my backyard. I am an undergrad, and as any former student knows, this means I move around constantly, and I am not always around to take care of my vegetable garden. I […]
Now I am lucky enough to work at the greatest company in the world as a University of Waterloo, co-op student. It might not even be a company you’ve heard of yet. They’re named Upverter and we are trying to change the way people design, build, share and collaborate on electronics. My job (also the […]
This instructable shows how to build a shield to connect devices that send MIDI signals (e.g. a masterkeyboard) to an Arduino. The basic schematic is derived from: http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1187962258/ Step 1: The schematic Basically the schematic is just an optocoupler with some resistors to decouple the MIDI device from the Arduino. Note that the DIN connector […]
RFID tags are all over the place. They’re used in building access control systems, passports, inventory tracking . . . This instructable will show how you can use an Arduino and a few simple components (wire coil, transistor, capacitor, resistor) to make a device that can spoof an 125 KHz (low frequency) RFID tag. […]
This project slightly modifies the Google Android sample app called “Bluetooth Chat” so you can type a message in the Android app and that same message will appear on an LCD attached to an Arduino Uno. Functionality: Android talks to Arduino 1. Run the Android “Bluetooth Chat” sample app (after we modify the app in […]
Wanted to make your own robot but couldn’t afford the fancy H-Bridge IC’s or etch your own PCB? Want a quick and dirty method of making your own wheeled robot? Then you’re in luck, but if you want to make your own wheeled robot AND have a quick and dirty wireless controller for anything then […]
