I know, I know, this one has such a simple name. Where’s the pun? Honestly, the description was just to long to include one. Maybe it could have been “What’s Up? Sensing Orientation With The ADXL335 + Arduino” – Ehhh… Probably not. A few weeks ago we wrote a tutorial about using the ADXL345 to […]

There are many wireless communication options when connecting Arduino boards. One of the most popular ones is the Wi-Fi. It works well at small distances, and around Wi-Fi hotspots, however when the modules need to connect over long distance at areas where Internet is not present, Wi-Fi is not an option. Luckily there is a
Long Distance Remote Light Sensor With RFM95W/RFM98W LoRa Continue Reading
Recently somebody asked for tutorial on Infrared Flame Sensor. It took a while due to severe work overload, but finally I succeeded to make it. The Infrared flame sensors use infrared light to detect flame. While experimenting with my one I discovered that in direct daylight they don’t work very well due to the infrared
The Bosch BNO055 combines tri-axis accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers to provide orientation to users. About the Sensor The BNO055 uses three triple-axis sensors to simultaneously measure tangential acceleration (via an accelerometer), rotational acceleration (via a gyroscope), and the strength of the local magnetic field (via a magnetometer). Data can then be either sent to an external

In this tutorial, we are building an interesting application using Arduino and PIR Sensor. A Burglar Alarm – is basically an intruder alarm or an anti theft alarm. So this project is all about building an anti theft alarm or an intruder alarm using Arduino and PIR sensor. It is possible to enhance this project
In this article, we are going to interface a Soil moisture sensor FC-28 with Arduino. This sensor measures the volumetric content of water inside the soil and gives us the moisture level as output. The sensor is equipped with both analog and digital output, so it can be used in both analog and digital mode.
In this article, we are going to read the colors using the TCS230 color sensor (RGB Sensor) and Arduino Uno. The TCS 230 color sensor senses the color light by using the photodiodes. The sensor converts the readings from the photodiode into a square wave by using the light to frequency converter. The frequency of these
Interface Arduino and Color Sensor – RGB Sensor TCS230 Continue Reading
In this article, we are going to interface a Pulse Sensor with Arduino. The pulse sensor we are going to use is a plug and play heart rate sensor. This sensor is quite easy to use and operate. Place your finger on top of the sensor and it will sense the heartbeat by measuring the change
This project is about a moisture-sensing automatic plant watering system using Arduino UNO. The system reads the moisture content of the soil using soil moisture sensor and switches ON the motor when the moisture is below the set limit. When the moisture level rises above the set point, the system switches off the pump. The

People or Visitor counters are pretty famous embedded application that was widely used in places like theaters, malls, Transport stations and so. High end counters uses sophisticated hardware to do the process of counting. Today we are about to see building of simple Visitor counter project using Arduino which uses IR as a tool for
