Ultrasonic Mapmaker Using Arduino and MatLab
Vision is one of the most exciting senses you can endow on your robot. The ability to perceive obstacles allows a robot to make an educated decision regarding further movements. However, it is also not the easiest senses to implement for a few reasons. Firstly, vision can be abstracted to a two-dimensional vector when it […]

Smart Power Strip With Cayenne Cloud
This instructable shows how you can build your own easy or simple DIY Internet-connected Smart Power Strip to control Electrical Appliances from remotely.You can also automate the daily repetitive task with scheduling feature, so the appliance will automatically be turned on and off on set timings. WARNING: This project includes work around HIGH VOLTAGE 230V […]
SteamPunk Radio
This project is without doubt the most complex I have undertaken, with sixteen IV-11 VFD tubes, two Arduino Mega cards, ten LED Neon light circuits, a servo, an electromagnet, two MAX6921AWI IC Chips, five DC power supplies, a HV power supply, two DC Volt meters, a DC Amp meter, FM stereo radio, 3W power amplifier, […]
The ‘Do More’ Timer, Inspired by Casey Neistat
Summer, the lovely season when things happen. But sometimes we tend to forget the time. So to remind us the time left , I designed this Casey Neistat’s ‘Do More’ DIY arduino driven timer which can be programmed to display the time left from any event, the start of a day or the start of […]
Creating a Physical Game Controller
When the Nintendo Wii was launched players were encouraged, nay required, to leave the sofa and jump, dance, and jiggle in order to score points in their game of choice. While there is a steep learning curve in building for the Wii, it is easy to build a custom device that lets you control a […]
