This is a project for Arduino to make a Thermometer with Digital Display, aimed at beginners. Arduino measures the voltage on a TMP36 Temperature sensor, converts the Voltage to Degrees Celcius and Displays the value on an LOL shield display. Objectives: * Learn how to use the TMP36 * Learn how to perform numeric and […]

This Instructable will show you how to build your own FM radio receiver shield to be used with an Arduino board. The radio chip we are going to be using is the AR1010 on a breakoutboard found at Sparkfun or Electrokit and there will be code to get you up and running provided later on. We are going

Cap’n ArrDrownHo! is the lovechild of Ardweeny and Boarduino and he’s here to commandeer your AVR ships. ArrDrownHo! inherits pros of both and cons of neither. Pick up an AVR chip and start prototyping instantly on a breadboard! Want to replace that costly Arduino in your project with a cheap AVR, but don’t know how? Use the simple plug-and-play

This project is a part of experiments done while doing an artist in residence at Instructables. You can see the other projects here. Inspired by Korgs Kaossilator I took it upon myself to build an opensource version of it. This way people can design new ways of interacting with the touchpad. The basic principle is creating

Control cyborg technology and revolutionize your PowerPoint presentations – build a wearable mouse! So you converted some video glasses to a heads-up display glass. You built a wearable Raspberry Pi, pcDuino, or BeagleBone Black. Now, how do you control your cybernetic augmentations? You make a wearable mouse, of course! The Point Shooter turns your hand

Want to play Pong on your computer with your Esplora? This example shows you how. This example is designed to be used with a Processing sketch. Processing is an open source programming environment. The Esplora reads the slider and buttons and sends data to the Processing sketch serially over USB, and Processing uses the incoming

Time for something different – a single button combination lock. Allow me to explain… Updated 18/03/2013 Normally a combination lock would require the entry of a series of unique numbers in order to unlock something or start an action. For example: A more contemporary type of lock could be controlled electronically, for example by a

The Knock Box is a power strip with superpowers – it turns on your lamp whenever you knock on your nightstand. You get two outlets, individually controlled by knock-knock-knocking on a nearby hard surface. It’s great for hitting the lights when it’s pitch dark, but if an appliance can plug into the wall, you can toggle it!

Recently I was reviewing one of my oldest project, and decided to “refresh” previous design by taking full advantage of the new arduino Leonardo board. Based on AtMega32U4, which include PGA (programmable gain amplifier), oscilloscope’s analog front end doesn’t require external OPA this time, end could be build in 1-2 hours on prototype board, using

The Pi is a fine little computer board, though not nearly as good as the Arduino when it comes to I/O capabilities. The beautifully-engineered Gertboard is a plug-in add-on that neatly overcomes this deficiency by giving the Pi access to an ATMega328, but it’s a very complex and expensive solution. An alternative would be to interface
