Infrared Rangefinder

Homemade Infrared Rangefinder (Similar to Sharp GP2D120) using Arduino

Here is my instructable on how to construct a pretty simple (for some!) short range infrared rangefinder/range sensor. Infrared rangefinders are very useful in a number of projects. The majority of these come from obstacle detection (in robots) or generally detecting distances! The one shown here is only a simple rangefinder and will only really […]

Accelerometer Dice with 123D Circuits

Accelerometer Dice with 123D Circuits

This is the project that got Autodesk’s CEO Carl Bass a little extra attention from the TSA on his way to MakerFaire Tokyo.  Here’s an article about that… We made this as way to demo a few things you can do with our apps, 123D Circuits and 123D Design :  Design circuits.  Simulate the circuits online.  3D Model online and prepare
