Here you can find out how to make you very own n as made for the exhibition www.laplandscape.co.uk curated by art/design group Lapland.More images can be seen at flickr This exhibition runs from Wednesday 26 November – Friday 12 December 2008 inclusive, and had a private view on Tuesday 25 November. Each participant has been […]
Create your own 8x8x8 LED Cube 3-dimensional display! We believe this Instructable is the most comprehensive step-by-step guide to build an 8x8x8 LED Cube ever published on the intertubes. It will teach you everything from theory of operation, how to build the cube, to the inner workings of the software. We will take you through
In my component drawers I have a LTP-7357AG, which is a matrix of 35 green LEDs conveniently packaged in a 12-pin display. I wanted to play with it so I began to hook it with my Arduino Uno. This post is part of a series about programming Arduino applications in C. I’m going to show the results first,

Hi Everyone! I’ve had a few people ask about creating a simple clap-on/clap-off circuit using Arduino. Well those who are interested are now in luck. The software in this instructable is simple and well commented. The schematic is simple, and the components are easy and inexpensive to acquire! All you’ll need are 6x components, and

There’s a nice charm to fireflies in a jar—except for, you know, all the dead bugs afterwards. I decided to make a bunch of fake fireflies in real jars for decoration at an outdoor event. The fireflies are yellow LEDs controlled by a small ATtiny45 microcontroller. The control circuit board sits out of sight on
I am building an automated irrigation system for my vegetable patch. This will be a system that monitors the soil moisture level and then turns on a pump to send water to my garden according to the detected moisture level. The water is coming from our rainwater tank, there is also an overflow on the
A microcontroller might need to store its data like sensor value, or a particular count or image data for a long period of time. The most common type of memory used with the microcontroller based systems is EEPROM. The EEPROM stands for Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory which is a kind of Read Only

I’m going to go through my process of hacking a Moog Etherwave Theremin. I created a new acrylic top, partially sanded to be translucent in certain areas, and created my own circuit around an ATMega168 Arduino Bootloaded microcontroller which is stealing a control voltage from the theremin’s board and is driving 2 RGB LEDs which
Practicing the art of time-lapse photography without an intervalometer is doable, but not particularly efficient. And while any decent photo equipment store will be happy to sell you one, you can go the DIY way and build your own intervalometer based on the excellent Arduino platform. Theoretically, building an Arduino-based intervalometer is as easy as connecting an infrared

One of the directors has asked me to create a special backdrop for our college musical. This particular backdrop has a particular design (see below) that includes LED strip lighting to give the feel of a 1920s casino sign – similar to what is seen today in Las Vegas. I have done up a detailed
