(and partner-in-crime, Abbie). Now, I’m off to the next stage of my life, so I decided to build this friendship photoset for Kevin and Briton to remember our golden era. We called ourselves: “The Suite Bros”. This project is actually an extension of the “Voice Activated Arduino (Bluetooth + Android) by ASCAS. I highly advise

The purpose of this project is to design and build a simple light-following robot using an Arduino Duemilanove microcontroller board. I really wanted to share a robot project that was cheap, simple to build, and had a complete set of instructions for all of the different steps. I hope I’ve succeeded and I’d love to

n this project, we will go over how to integrate a keyboard with an arduino board so that the arduino can read the keys being pressed by a user. Keypads are used in all types of devices, including cell phones, fax machines, microwaves, ovens, door locks, etc. They’re practically everywhere. Tons of electronic devices use
