I wanted to make a little toy for my granddaughter to play with when she visits. I know like most kids, she enjoys things that make sounds and have different colored lights on them and if she does something, the toy does something. I thought about a Theremin and decided to add a RGB light […]
This is a Tiva microcontroller based project. As there is a fewer data regarding projects based on Tiva, I as an individual am taking this initiative. I hope the readers will encourage it. The project named as bluetooth based voice controlled and remote controlled car is a project executed by young electrical engineering students at

This is Tahir Ul Haq, bringing you another exciting and innovative Tiva Micro-controller based project. This is the third instructables in the Series. Hope you will like it. This time it is Bar-code Based Complete Security and Enrollment System. The project focuses on a bar-code based security and enrollment system. In this project, a Bluetooth

Servomotors or simply servos are essential components of a robot which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.They are widely used in the field of RC hobby and robotics. But unlike simple geared motors , these servos are made by integrating a geared motor with a position feedback circuit which allows us to control the rotation
Introduction: The CC3D is a powerful and affordable flight controller that is very popular to use mainly on mini quad copters due to its small form factor. It has many advanced features that you can use if you add a GPS module, even way point based flight,. However, most users don’t bother with this for
For my first project with Particles’s Spark Core, I decided to make an internet-connected stuffed animal! After close consideration, I settled upon a blue and green alien to be the body of this project (see the above picture.) Powered by a Spark Core, this other-worldly being lights up and buzzes whenever my cousin receives an
UPDATES Feb 20, 2013: In response to a question by student Hala Abuhasna if you wish to use the .NET Serial class, use the naming convention “\\\\.\\COMn” and replace n with a number > 9 to define your com port for COM ports above 9 such as COM10, COM11, etc. Mar 23, 2012: Featured on

Many, many years ago – when I was young – I visited the Evoluon in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. At that time it had all kind of technical stuff you could see and you could play with. Nowadays it does no longer exists in that form since the Evoluon has changed into a conference center. One
OK So my third Instructable and here we’re dealing with another Sonoff device, the original Sonoff WiFi smart switch. Theses devices are again based around the ESP8266 and are easily hacked. The devices can switch up to 10A @ 240V so are ideal for switching lights, TV’s, games consoles etc. Please don’t try running a

Disclosure: This project operates the ATmega328-P-PU outside the published ATmel specifications: According to ATmel, the 328P requires slightly over 3.3V to reliably start the oscillator at 16MHz and to otherwise perform acceptably. Lab testing here at SofKinetics has shown that the ‘board-duino’ 328P-PU can withstand below freezing and above 130F temperatures and that the 16MHz
