In this instructable, I will show you how to make a simple toy that combination of the LEDs flash and Theremin. We’re gonna using some basic electronics built on top of an Arduino. The basic idea of 7 Segment LED Display was from Enjoying Electronics. The original Enjoying Electronics article is here, you can get

I love Ardunio. I love the things that people make with them and I love to make my own. Last August I published an Instructable on how to make your own postage stamp sized Arduino compatible. This Instructable will show you how to to make a rugged, versatile Ardunio compatible with basic components on board. It

Last winter I experienced some problems with my car battery. I knew that it was about time to replace it so off I went to buy a new one. This fact reminded me of an old article about a car battery/charging system diagnostics kit I had seen in one of those 1980s electronics magazines. That

Well I managed to kill my Arduino. It no longer accepted uploads with the classic out of sync error. After asking on the Arduino forum I was told I would need a high voltage programmer to rectify, so I decided just to buy a new chip. I was a bit scared about doing this but

I have been making my own Arduino’s on strip-board but recently bought some of the Evil Mad Scientist ATmegaxx8 Target Boards. While they weren’t designed as an Arduino board they are perfect to use as they have: – places for the crystal and capacitors (XTL and C1, C2) or resonator – place for the power

This is a Modification of an electric wheelchair. I called it “Buggy” for two reasons. #1 My kids can still ride it around because I left the seat intact. #2 I haven’t programmed anything for a long time. I plan to create “jobs” for it in the near future. I welcome any input. Keep in
