PID Thermostat This PID thermostat is designed for the arduino platform. It provides separate tuning parameters for several hardware ‘profiles’, and features an autotune mode to calculate the PID parameters for a specific setpoint. Installation Hardware DS18-series (I’m using the DS18B20) temperature sensor Solid-state relay rated for your power source 16×2 LCD display (I’m using […]

In this project, we will go over how to build a carbon monoxide sensor circuit with an Arduino. The sensor we will utilize is the MQ-7 sensor for detecting carbon monoxide. This sensor is responsive to the impacts of CO. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly hazardous gas that lacks odor, color, and taste, making

Recently I started playing around with DHT11 Temperature and Humidity sensor, at that time around, I had an idea to make a small yet effective Weather Station, so in this project inscructable, we will use the DHT11 sensor from the previous tutorial and turn it into mini weather station for our desk, so follow up

Every now and then you get sick of the typical push buttons and you want something cooler. And what is cooler than touch sensitive things? Remember that old lamp in your Grandma’s that changed brightness just by touching the base? Yeah, that’s right… We are talking THAT cool! The MPR121 capitative touch sensor gives you

We have a great thread that contains lots of info on thermal differential controllers here. However, I wanted to start a thread dedicated to my own development of a thermal differential controller that I’ll be using for my attic heat reclamation project. Tonight I setup a simple circuit that tested the operation of the differential

In this project, we will go over how to build a motion sensor light circuit with an arduino. A motion sensor light circuit is a circuit in which a light turns on when motion is detected. With a PIR motion sensor integrated with an arduino, we can detect movement and program the arduino to turn

Arduino Project – Touch Me Not I modified the Arduino project from the Arduino Starter Kit (Touch Sensor Lamp). Now it lights up an LED when your hand is close on the aluminium foil (without even touching it). This can be used as a ‘Touch-less Switch’. I just did it because it seemed pretty cool
