In a previous tutorial we have seen how to run two stepper motors synchronously from a given start position to a defined destination using an Arduino and a very simple “user interface”. That user interface was restricted to some microswitches and LEDs, both installed on a breadboard. As promised, this new instructable shows how to add a […]

I’m setting up a betta fish tank and wanted to make an automatic fish feeder so he never misses a meal. I’ve seen other DIY fish feeders that just shake a container but I wanted to be able to precisely control how much food he’ll get. Hope the new fishy likes it! Follow my other

Hi guys, I made an automatic 3D Printed Pet Feeder (or just dispenser, but I use it to feed my dog). I 3D modelled all that project. U can print it by yourself. All parts are down there. Basically how it works, is u type in two Feeding Times, for example 8:30 and 17:30, then

{This instructable was created in fulfillment of the project requirement of the Makecourse at the University of South Florida (www.makecourse.com).} Inspired by the Wind powered machines built by “Theo Janse” I’ve come up with a design of my own, but with a twist. This design houses two 12volt motors to provide the power, an Arduino,

Get your Arduino moving! This shield makes it easy to control two high-power DC motors with your Arduino or Arduino-compatible board. Its dual robust VNH5019 motor drivers operate from 5.5 to 24 V and can deliver a continuous 12 A (30 A peak) per motor, or a continuous 24 A (60 A peak) to a single motor connected to both

In this project we are going to make a Buck Converter Circuit using Arduino and N-Channel MOSFET with a maximum current capacity of 6 amps. We are going to step down 12v DC to any value between 0 and 10v DC. We can control the output voltage value by rotating the potentiometer. A buck converter

The Strandbot is a DIY upgrade for the Strandbeest originally designed by Theo Jansen. Strandbeests are amazing mechanical creatures that are able to move on their own using just a little bit of wind power. Unfortunately my tiny apartment is short on wind, so I decided to upgrade a miniature Strandbeest using an Arduino and

As a beginner myself, I struggled to find a one-stop set of instructions to get up and running with Sparkfun’s Motor Driver 1A Dual TB6612FNG. This motor driver breakout board is exceptional value, is beautifully small, but does need a little more effort to get it working. The TB6612FNG is an H-Bridge driver – I

Introduction The Arduino Zumo Robot Maze Solver is a smart microcontroller project built around the Arduino Uno and simulated in Proteus. Its job is simple but impressive: the robot moves through a maze, detects the correct route, and then finds the shortest path to the goal. This makes it a strong learning project for anyone
