Summary This PCB (Printed Circuit Board) resembles the YouTube Play Button award that is given out to creators for reaching certain milestones such as 100,000, 1 million, and 10 million subscribers. When the switch is turned on, the user can scroll through 5 different modes by pressing the button on the top left corner. The […]

Back Story My brother has Funko POP figures that represent his characters that his friends play most often in video games. We thought that it would be cool if they had a display case that would have LEDs in it to represent their status on Steam. So with my previous experience with Arduino, Steam API,

Meet Chartreuse! Chartreuse’s face follows you when you walk by. When she sees you, her eyes turn yellow and she gets a happy expression in her eyes. As you walk away, her eyes change to blue and she sadly turns away. Chartreuse is powered by an Arduino Uno, two servos, and a stepper motor and

To blink an LED with an Arduino using Python, you will need to: Connect the LED to the Arduino board. You will need to connect the positive leg of the LED (the longer leg) to a digital output pin and the negative leg (the shorter leg) to a ground pin. Install the PySerial library, which

Temperature and humidity measurement are always a nice addition to hobbyist projects. In my previous post, I’ve discussed the DHT11 sensor, which is capable of measuring both temperature and humidity. They are digital sensor and provide calibrated outputs with temperature and relative humidity. I’ve also demonstrated how to interface with Arduino and display it on

This is arduino based collision detection warning system. This kind of system is fastest growing safety feature in automotive industries. Such system enables vehicles to identify the chances of collision and give visual and audio warning to driver. So that driver can take necessary action to avoid collision. This project idea is based on arduino

Today we are going to examine the Maxim MAX7219 LED display driver IC. The reason for doing so is to show you how something that used to be quite complex can be made very simple – and that is what all this technology is for, isn’t it? If you have ever tried to control lots
Review – Maxim MAX7219 LED Display Driver IC using arduino Continue Reading
Overview This project builds a Christmas lights controller for the GE Color Effects lights allowing programmed control of up to 8 sets of Christmas lights. Furthermore, it provides a function specific language for programming patterns for these lights and an emulation environment for testing the programs requiring the lights to be built or hung.
