Hello, in this instructable I’ll be showing you step by step how to build the TurtleDuino, an object avoidance robot, with an Arduino UNO microcrontroller on board. I designed the TurtleDuino using material from the hardware store (Home Depot) and all the electronics from sparkfun.com and jameco.com. Shopping List: Arduino UNO (Sparkfun.com) Ultrasonic Ping))) Sensor (jameco.com) 2

This Instructable covers the assembly of a circuit capable of PWM-ing (pulse width modulating) a high-power RGB LED strip and programming an Arduino to cycle through a range of colors. In this context, “high power” is 9-12 volts. I will discuss how to mount a transistor to a heatsink and assemble the circuit. I will

The project This project follows on from the excellent work by ScotSEA and his Arduino reset program (see http://www.instructables.com/id/CatGenie-Resetting-a-SaniSolution-Cartridge/ ). I had never taken my Catgenie apart as Scott did, but had built a small contact board instead. I had previous updated Scott’s program to so that it output some debugging output to the computer

The Problem: You want to restrict the time when your pet is allowed to go outside. This could be because the neighborhood is not safe for your cat or small dog at night (marauding coyotes comes to mind). But you would like your pet to be able to come in at any time. The Solution: Pet

I own two excellent AM transmitters – one is homemade with a single 6888 Tube and the other is a restored old KnightKit Broadcaster. Additionally, I have a high-quality solid state transmitter from SSTRAN that I use to broadcast music to my collection of repaired or refurbished antique AM radios. I desired a top-notch FM

This is just a fun project I have been working on in the last little while. If you like this instructable, consider voting for it in the Arduino Challenge! Anyone who has experience with programming will have probably used random numbers in their code. These random numbers aren’t actually random though. They are actually generated using

Waking up to a buzzing alarm clock sucks. I’m one of those people who doesn’t like to wake up before the sun is out (or has been out for many hours). So what better way to make waking up fun than having a bubble party in bed! Using an arduino and a commonly available bubble

I recently had the idea to create a catapult, But not just any kind of catapult, an electronic catapult! I wanted something I could just sit it down hit some buttons and watch it do its thing without being to big. This is what I came up with: It is a little bigger than what

This instructable will attempt to show you how to make an animatronic doll controlled by a wireless nunchuk. This doll can only move its head though. I’m sure there are plenty of people out there who can take this and expand on it and make it much better, and I encourage that completely. 🙂 This
