Sweeps the shaft of a RC servo motor back and forth across 180 degrees. This example makes use of the Arduino servo library. Hardware Required Arduino Board (1) Servo Motor hook-up wire Circuit Servo motors have three wires: power, ground, and signal. The power wire is typically red, and should be connected to the 5V […]
This project will demonstrate the process of creating a circuit for a vibration motor. A vibration motor is a motor that will vibrate once it receives enough power. It is a motor that truly vibrates. It is highly effective for making objects vibrate. It has practical applications in various devices. For instance, cell phones are
An if statement allows you to choose between two discrete options, TRUE or FALSE. When there are more than two options, you can use multiple if statements, or you can use the switch statement. Switch allows you to choose between several discrete options. This tutorial shows you how to use switch to turn on one of several
Switch Statement used with serial input using Arduino Continue Reading
Why make your own Arduino control system? Once I finished building my homemade telescope mount, I installed a Meade DS motor kit to power it. This system was very sluggish, lacking in power, and untrustworthy. I couldn’t modify the programming or upkeep the system either. I chose to develop my own telescope control system from

The assignment for this week is to automate the machine assembled two weeks ago. For this Roxanna milled the Arduino’s shield for controlling the steppers, but Alejandro found that we haven’t all the components for stuffing, specially the A3982 – stepper motor driver, so as was impossible to get it locally, I decided to design
The last time I was home visiting my parents I noticed bumper imprints caused by my mother suburban on the stairs leading up from the garage. Their garage it turns out is just barely long enough to fit their gigantic vehicles. So I decided it would be nice to have some visual cue for parking.
This instructable will go over the steps to connect a RF module from an RROD xbox to your computer so you can use a wireless controller with your computer. ******DISCLAIMER******* DONT TRY THIS IF YOU DONT HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH ELECTRONICS/SOLDERING OR COMPUTERS IM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU SCREW UP…. now that we’ve gotten that

Should you ask your boss for a raise? Call that cute guy you met at a party? Sell your stock? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a handy method of handling some of life’s more pressing dilemmas? This machine give you the answer to all you life pressing dilemmas. You need to concentrate on your
Pushbuttons or switches connect two points in a circuit when you press them. This example turns on the built-in LED on pin 13 when you press the button. image developed using Fritzing. For more circuit examples, see the Fritzing project page Connect three wires to the Arduino board. The first two, red and black, connect to the
If your are like me which I am guessing you are, then ever since you got into doing stuff with arduino you have wanted to make your own arduino board. You may be surprised to find out that making the prototyping board is actually very easy, and can have several advantages over using the commercially
