Finalized Prototype Shown below is the finalized prototype. The purpose of the prototype was to demonstrate the feasibility of a small, highly maneuverable search and rescue robot. As such, the completed prototype was successful. Capabilities include a ground speed of 10 inches per second, battery life of 50 minutes, wireless range of between 50 and […]

In this instructable I will show you how you can make your own Atting programming shield for the arduino and then use the arduino as a programmer. Usually If you don’t have a shield you can do a breadboard version to program the ATtiny. (Step1) But here I’ll show you how to program it and

You might remember my first set of lights that I put on my dad’s skates. Well those weren’t bright enough and they were a lot of work because I didn’t know how to make PCBs. In this i’ble I’ll cover how to make your own custom PCBs in under an hour! Keep in mind, if

Project Goal The goal of this project is to create a low resolution display of graphical art that interacts with people who are handling it. My basic idea is to create such a “magic box” with a LED matrix on one side. It should be small enough that it can be held by hands. Also,

In the past five weeks, we have considered and built three projects, ranging from: optical sensing, electromyography (EMG), and galvanic skin response detection. Initially, our project was using an optical sensor and EMG to detect finger movement for applications, such as: playing piano and Morse code. However, after completing the hardware, due to issues with

Overview: This instructable will construct a series of custom sensor modules and an Arduino shield. Such modules are available from many different sources, but fans of the Instructables website would probably find satisfaction in making their own. Each module will be a set size of 1.5cm by 2.5cm and employ a three pin connector of

Okay so the Title is indeed a bit of a mouthful lol ! Ive been needing to mess around with a desire for MORE Input/Output pins than the Arduino UNO and nowadays the UNO uses an Atmega328 microcontroller, & its limited to only about 20 Input/Output pins 🙁 Well if you’ve been messing around with

Welcome ladies and gents! As an entrepreneur, I’m always looking for great projects to share. Myself and two other classmates recently put together a project for our Master’s of Engineering program in Technical Entrepreneurship, and we’re thrilled to share our vision with you. Remember that old Connect 4 game sitting in your basement/closet/chest/Batcave? You’ve always

This is a project I worked on for my electronics class at Pomona College. Thanks to Professor Dwight Whitaker and Tony Grigsby for their help and guidance throughout this project, and credit to Jonathan Wong for the idea for this project! Also, here’s a list of Instructables I looked at for ideas/inspiration while working on
