Overview As enthusiasts of audio, we aimed to use our recent understanding of microcontrollers to create an exciting consumer gadget. Our project is a drum machine that functions as a step sequencer. The user can create a 16-step percussion sequence with various percussion instruments on six separate tracks. The user switches between various music tracks […]
LED displays are commonly packaged as arrays of LEDs organized in rows with shared positive terminals and columns with shared negative terminals, or vice versa. Here is a standard illustration, along with its diagram: These exhibits can be very useful. To control a matrix, you connect its rows and columns to your microcontroller. The columns

Introduction For many electronics projects, AVR microcontrollers are commonly used. However, as a beginner, uploading or flashing code to an AVR can be challenging to understand. When other programming hardware is unavailable, an Arduino board can help burn bootloaders onto AVRs. It also enables creating and testing AVR programs. Therefore, this article will demonstrate using

This project is a part of experiments done while doing an artist in residence at Instructables. You can see the other projects here. Creating emergent patterns that can be converted into sounds fascinates me. So this is my first experiment in building an arduino platform for creating such patterns. This version uses a Gameduino as its

In this instructable, we walk through how I made a “Cyclone” – type arcade game using an Arduino. This game also includes a reaction timer mode. Let’s get started! A list of things you will need: Arduino Uno LCD Screen MCP23017 serial port expander 2 pushbuttons LEDs of differing colors (I used 3mm and 5mm
Arduino Based Real-Time Oscilloscope The Oscilloscope is an essential instrument for the workbench of every electronics engineer or maker. It is primarily used for monitoring waveforms and analyzing voltage levels, frequency, noise, and other signal characteristics that can change over time at its input. Embedded software developers utilize it for code debugging while technicians depend
This is a tutorial on how to use 123D Catch to get a 3D scan of your whole body. Once you have the scan or “catch” the tutorial will take you through a technique to clean it up and manipulate it ready for 123D Make. The tutorial will go through how to slice the model
