This example example uses the Arduino board to receive data from the computer. The Arduino boards turns on an LED when it receives the character ‘H’, and turns off the LED when it receives the character ‘L’. The data can be sent from the Arduino serial monitor, or another program like Processing (see code below), […]

mo.momi Led strips are amazing! Firewalker-led-sneakers(http://learn.adafruit.com/firewalker-led-sneakers) by Adafruit inspired me. I wanna change a way to control it, instead of “pressure-sensitive”, I use a accelerometer sensor judging the motion of slipper. It’s simple, I complete this version only calculating the acceleration on “z” axis, weather i’m speed up or slow down. Led will “flow” if

This sketch blinks the Esplora’s RGB LED. It goes through all three primary colors (red, green, blue), then it combines them for secondary colors(yellow, cyan, magenta), then it turns on all the colors to create white. For best results, cover the LED with a piece of white paper to see the colors blend. Circuit Only

In this instructable i will explain how to connect 7 segment display, decoder and arduino. It´s pretty easy. At first we have to learn something about decoder. I´m using BCD to 7 segment decoder. My is D147D, this is old chip, but the newer are similar. Documentation about one of them you can find here

This example shows you how to read different analog sensors to change the brightness of the three colors in the RGB LED. In this example you will read the amplitude from the microphone, the amount of light on the light sensor, and the position of the linear potentiometer. These three sensors will control the intensity

This is my Halloween costume for the year 2013. It’s been in the works for about a year and has taken quite a few man hours to create. The screen is 14 by 15 pixels, so, pretty low resolution but it can still do some fun things. It is physically flexible in all directions, although

I love LED and stars, and after saw another instructables about star constellation and some mood lighting that was very inspired and I decided I wanted to take that idea and want to create some mood lighting with some skies component such as stars, and cloud, for the bonus there will be some effect for

We are a generation that love sound and light – can’t do without them really. Our most preferred time of day is night, or what we would call evening. We are particularly well acquainted with technology; doesn’t hurt these days. Our prerequisite for everything is that it be ‘cool’. Put it all together and in

This is a simple arduino based project that consists of a laser tripwire that, when triggered, will begin a countdown sequence on red, orange and green LEDs. I designed this to be an easy project for someone learning how arduinos work (like me). This is my first instructable so please bare with me 🙂 (I’ll
