Remote Control: ESP8266 With Coin Cell
The big problem using the ESPs is the power consumption when Wifi “goes up”, about 100-200mA, peak up to 300mA. Normal coincells deliver a few mA, peak up to 20-40mA. But for the ESPs the voltage will collapse. We need “a little help of my friend”: the supercap. These capacitors deliver enough current for power […]
Open a box with the flick of a switch!
Have you ever given something to someone and wished that the box you gave it in opened automatically? No? Well neither have I (well, maybe) :D. However if you have, this is the guide for you! With just a flick of a switch the box will open automatically! Step 1: Tools & Materials Step 2: […]
How to turn inkjet printer to print on Coffee using Arduino
The aim of this project is to make latte printer, I used 1 printers and 1 scanner , it prints one line a time, all what I have done is hacking the sensors of the printer and I used Arduino Uno to send different values to printer’s micro-controller created custom shield to control stepper motor […]
Alexa Controlled Servo
Introduction I have a laptop on a shelf in my office that monitors several cameras that are around the outside of my house. They alert me to deliveries and visitors. While I can use a web browser to see their images it is easier to just glance at the screen on the laptop from time-to-time to […]
Arduino + fischertechnik TX-C – Connecting I2C True Colour Sensor
Colour reading is a real issue for industrial models. I’ve been working on it for more than 12 months now, since December 2009. After many months of hard work, • starting with the standard colour reader (season 1 ) with features a red LED, • adding extra light from bulb lamps (season 2 ), • […]
The 4x4x4 LED cube using an Arduino
In this instructable I will show you how to make a 4x4x4 LED cube that will be controlled by an Arduino Demulionove. now yes you might say” that Arduino has only 14 I/O pins well also the 6 analog pins can be used as pins 15,16,17,18,19,20. that way giving us enough pins (16 columns + […]

Solar Weight-Based Plant Management With ESP32
Growing plants is fun and watering and caring for them is not really a hassle. Microcontroller applications to monitor their health are all over the internet and the inspiration for their design comes from plant’s static nature and the ease of monitoring something that doesn’t run around and sweat. I am relatively new to plant […]
