I love the idea of the BlinkM (individually addressed RGB leds controlled with 2 pins), but not so much the price (nearly 15 quid each!). Luckily, the hardware is open source and somebody has brought out an alternative firmware (although if you know where to look, you can find the official firmware). This is the […]

Because of the remake of the animation and movie of Space Battleship Yamato, in addition to the attractive design of Bandai model. It make me interest to build this space battleship model again. Bandai not mention its scale, maybe ~1:2500 by estimation. Step 1: Start Design the assemble Sequence and Drill Holes for Those Lighted

This instructable assumes very little with respect to prior knowledge. If there are any areas you feel could be improved or clarified, please feel free to message or comment and I will update. Here are all the details you need to produce a simple wall avoiding robot. Along the way you will have the chance
Why build a light suit? Probably because I’ve watched tron a few too many times (the 1984 version of course). I’d just discovered Arduino and was very excited, I’d made LED’s flash and buzzers sound but now I wanted to make something new and interesting, the idea of a light suit popped into my mind.
What would you think about a program, made in the C language of the Arduino IDE, that makes the LoRa radio change frequency? This is what you will learn about in my video today, where you will learn about the differences between LoRa radio, LoRaWAN protocol, and encryption. We will then create a project featuring
Hey! Some time ago while going through the pages here in Instructables, something catch my attention, a printer made of a CD reader, and i was amazed. I thought: “This is incredible, I have to make one!” I know that these kind of projects don’t always receive a “I made it”, because of its degree

Although nowadays many portable devices (smartbands, smartwatches, smartphones,…) are available that can detect the Heart Rate (HR) and perform trace analysis, chest strap belts-based systems (like the one in the upper part of thr picture) are still widespread and used, but lacking the possibility to record and export the trace of the measurements. In my
A medium sized box that requires the user to succeed in a game of hang man in order to gain access to the contents of the box. Great gift Idea!!! my Arduino sketch will be included in this instructible sorry for the poor quality pictures! and keep in mind this is my first instructable, and
After completing my GSM Home Alarm V1.0 and some time of using, I decided to make some modifications. In the hardware the main changes are the replacement of the ultrasonic sensor and the introduction of a keypad. On the software, I change the SMS notification by e-mail. Also I decided to scale down the circuit and design
This Instructable will show you how to make a Portable Digital Optical Tachometer using an Arduino Uno. This project is inspired from This instructable and is an enhanced version of it with an LCD display and a modified code. Instead of a slotted sensor , it has a reflection based sensor. So : 1. You
