I always wanted an old traffic signal and finally got one recently. However, it was very simply wired so that all the lights were fixed on. What fun is that? I also wanted to try out an Arduino controller and thought this would be a nice simple project to incorporate it into. This Instructable will […]

Fog machines can be unruly beasts. Especially the non-professional models you buy for halloween. With low duty cycles, causing massive amounts of fog when you don’t need it, and no fog when you do. Wouldn’t it be nice to have fog only when people come up to your house? Yeah, I thought so too. Here

In this project we use an Arduino Uno along with some simple components to create an interactive, scary and playful decoration for Halloween to impress all your guests. Our idea is basically designing a candy dispenser that only provides the user with a few candy if a riddle is solved properly; of course everthing ambiented
Follow the instructions below to build the remote control car. This project is ideal for science fair, robotics competition and university projects. The design is highly adaptable, you can modify it easily and add your own components. Table of contents Step 1: video demo Step 2: circuit diagram Step 3: Arduino code (software) Step 4:
What are we messing with? IoT (Internet of things) set-up to operate/control 220-240 Volt AC Bulb/Device NodeMCU Amica + 5V Relay + MQTT + Arduino IDE + Web Browser (HTML + JavaScript/jQuery) WARNING!! – THIS PROJECT INVOLVES WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGES THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH, AND/OR SET YOUR HOUSE ON FIRE. PLEASE PROCEED
There is always a need for automating a process,be it a simple/monstrous one.I got the idea to do this project from a simple challenge that i faced while finding methods to water/irrigate our small piece of land.The problem of no current supply lines and costly generators (to operate our pump) added to the difficulty. So

His creation is a 26-key drum pad setup that combines MIDI and USB connectivity, featuring a fixed velocity byte for 10 drum switches alongside a 16-key velocity-sensitive circuit. This system utilizes piezo sensors to achieve a complete velocity range from 0 to 127. The drums are already chosen to be sent to the MIDI outputs
This project involves creating a device with either an ESP32 or ESP8266 that can connect with a server from a distance. The gadget will function as an HTTP client by sending POST requests to a PHP script. The aim of these requests is to transmit sensor data (like temperature or humidity readings) to the PHP

I enjoy creating sumo robots and am constantly searching for innovative sensors and materials to improve the speed and intelligence of my robots. I discovered the RPLIDAR A1, available for $99 on DFROBOT.com. I mentioned my interest in testing the sensor, and they offered me the opportunity to test it out. Once I obtained the

Eventually you are going to find yourself holding a 12v solenoid, motor, or light and wondering “How the heck am I supposed to control this from my Arduino?” And we have covered this in the past. Today we are going to talk about another way of doing just that, this time with an N-Channel MOSFET
