Recently a family member had his furnace fail while he was away from his house for a long period of time in the winter. His pipes burst and caused quite the mess. This project describes a temperature sensor that broadcasts the temperature in his house to the pachube data logging website. This allows him to check on

Following the instructable here, I was able to turn an old digital camera into a time lapse camera using an arduino, a relay, and an open source software program called makeAVI (windows). To modify the camera I disassembled the camera cover and removed the button that activates the shutter. It is difficult to tell from the

After I got comfortable programming and building with an Arduino, I used my newly acquire microcontroller skills to build a robot. Using a microcontroller, four high-torque DC gear motors, spiked legs, a linear actuator, rotation sensors, and 3 L298 H-bridge circuits, this robot can climb up trees of varying diameter. The very long build log

This is a basic example how arduino works. In this arduino projects you’ll see how arduino control LED on for 1 second and off for 1 second repeatedly. Instruction; 1) Connect cathode lead of LED (shorter lead) to ground pin and anode lead of LED (longer lead) to pin 13. Upload this code to your

This is a project I’m calling Tacit. No, I didn’t bother making an awkward backronym for it, it just seemed like an appropriate name that’s a lot shorter (though less descriptive) than “Hand-Mounted Haptic Feedback Sonar Obstacle Avoidance Asstance Device”. It measures the distance to things and translates that into pressure on the wrist. It’s wrist mounted and senses objects from

Arduino Knight Rider light effect, a simple variation of blink code. Parts List; 1) 5x 5mm red LED 2) 1x Arduino 3) 5x 330Ω resistor 4) Jumper wire Instruction; 1) Connect all LED as diagram below, make sure cathode lead of LED at ground wire. 2) Connect all 330Ω resistor to anode lead of

Introduction The idea of this project was to design and construct a robot that consists of a body and two wheels that would be able to balance on its own. This behavior is similar how a segway (a new mode of transportation) works. Our goal was to have a working finished product – a robot

I present this new Arduino project: A full MP3 player based on Arduino. As you can see in the photo, the idea was to build a standalone player, in the style of antique radios or ‘tapes’, in the age of Iphones …. The player uses a small module based on the VS1002d chip (now discontinued, but who had a drawer).

This project brings back the old time Analog VU Meter, with the added functionality of a neat looking clock! When you turn off your music the meters automatically swing into to clock mode. Behind it all is the popular and easy to use Arduino. This is my submission for the Make-to-Learn Youth Contest: What did
Analog VU meter and Clock using Arduino Continue Reading
Hi, First of all, my English is not perfect =) I’ve seen many projects with Arduino that describes how to control 2 servo’s with a joystick or use a lcd screen. All of the projects that i have seen are all seperate things. So i decided to make a short Instructable of these things combined.
