For my project I created a robot with an attached water cannon. My mentor and I built it in a budget of around $300 (not including the necessary equipment), and it functions quite well. For the motors we used drill motors, powered by the 18 volt drill batteries. To control it all we used an

This was my first time attending the Internet of Things Pune Group. It was such a fun learning experience! At today’s meetup, Dhiraj and Nishant started out by introducing the InduinoX and Arduino Uno boards along with the Processing IDE that is used to write the code. After playing around with couple of sensors on

Architecture RaspiDuinoRover is made of three main parts: A Raspberry Pi which receives commands from a remote device through a TCP connection, and sends these commands to an Arduino Uno through an I2C connection. The same TCP channel is used to send back the remote data grabbed from the Arduino Uno about pan and tilt

In this tutorial i want to learn you something, maybe change your mind. And make autonomous drones available for everyone. Simple question is: What do you need to make your drone autonomous? . Answer: – GPS – Accelerometer – Gyroscope – Telemetry wireless system – Camera – Some better micro processor Its expensive right? Real

This gesture controlled robot uses Arduino,ADXL335 accelerometer and RF transmitter-receiver pair. We will divide the entire robot into 3 parts the transmitter,the receiver and the robot. The different gestures that have been mapped to the direction of the bot are- Hand parallel to the ground-stationary Hand tilted forward-forward Hand tilted backward-backward Hand tilted right-right Hand

Although there are many garage door projects on Instructable using Arduinos, I needed/wanted something different. Last year, we had a warm summer and when I would come home after work, I would leave the garage door open about 1 foot so it could cool off. The trouble was that several nights I left the garage

Required Parts: This project requires two Arduino boards which can be bought from http://www.adafruit.com/category/17 This project uses two Arduino Uno compatible boards. An L293D or other Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver chip will be needed to drive the motors of the RC car. This can be found here: http://www.adafruit.com/products/807 Finally, this project requires the RF transmitter

Anirudh Sharma, an IT Engineer from Rajasthan Technical University has developed a system that offers non-obtrusive navigation for the visually impaired . Calling it Le Chal (Hindi for ‘Take me there’), Sharma conceptualized and demonstrated the system at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Media Lab Design and Innovation Workshop 2011. The Le Chal system comprises

Naturally, the Uno does not natively support keyboard strokes, unlike it’s Leonardo brother. Most of Google will tell you you need to do some firmware workarounds and ATMEGA reprogramming just to get it working and the entire ordeal is a mess. If you’re like me, you’ve found that out just after buying one. Here is

This is a fun project that can be done easily and also cheaply. In this instructable we will explain step by step how to make this beautiful POV clock. Used material: Arduino Uno, RTC modul, ULN 2003, IR diode and IR transistor (used like a sensor, more details in next steps) 4 pushbuttons (for controling
