In this project we will show you how to switch on and off the power sockets box with an IR remote. Not only the power sockets box, but other RF receivers can be switched on and off with the same IR remote as well. We used the RF remote switch library from Randy Simons http://randysimons.nl/

The applications of microcontroller are not limited to control simple electrical or electronic device but they are widely used in robotics and automotive industries nowadays. From simple rear view mirror control to complex engine control functions are done by the microcontroller. The microcontroller can even implement to automatically controlling the vehicle without a human driver

The PS2 mouse is an input device which can communicate with a host device using the PS2 protocol. It can be connected to a host device using the 6 pin mini DIN connector. The mouse will continuously give output which can be decoded to get the movement in the X-Y plane and also the status

A microcontroller might need to store its data like sensor value, or a particular count or image data for a long period of time. The most common type of memory used with the microcontroller based systems is EEPROM. The EEPROM stands for Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory which is a kind of Read Only

I’ve been in possession of an Arduino Duemilanove for a couple of weeks. If you are unfamiliar with the Arduino, it is defined as “a platform for creating electronics prototypes using adaptable, user-friendly hardware and software”. The setup consists of a small microcontroller, a USB port for programming on a computer, a power socket for

A random number generation is very important in computing devices which helps them to do task in random manner. The applications of random number generation can be found in shuffling the audio files in an audio player, in almost all kind of digital games, generating passwords etc.There are so many algorithms which can generate the

I’m going to go through my process of hacking a Moog Etherwave Theremin. I created a new acrylic top, partially sanded to be translucent in certain areas, and created my own circuit around an ATMega168 Arduino Bootloaded microcontroller which is stealing a control voltage from the theremin’s board and is driving 2 RGB LEDs which

(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
arduino based Drone Quadricopter It’s a tiny quadrotor helicopter! Update Feb 25 2012: Warning, I may have discovered a bug inside the CadSoft EAGLE 6.1.0 software that may make the PCB look slightly different. My design files are meant for 5.11 so use that instead. You have been warned. arduino based Drone Quadricopter Main Features:
