his is a preliminary instructable that will take you through the steps I took to get the SR04 ULTRASONIC SENSOR connected and working to the Arduino. It will then be incorporated to my mini environment monitor. Eventually, if it all fits, it will end up in a Startrek toy tricorder casing I found in my […]

An ultrasonic distance sensor is a sensor that can measure distance from a solid or physical object. An ultrasonic range finder does this through sound waves. It sends out high-frequency sound waves and then waits to listen back for these sound waves. If it has heard back these sound waves, then this means the sound

In this project, we will go over how to build a heat detector circuit using an Arduino. A heat detector circuit is a circuit, of course, which can detect the presence or absence of heat. This could be useful for a wide range of circuits including any device that needs monitoring and protection from excess

In this project, we are going to build a color sensor circuit with an Arduino microcontroller. A color sensor is a device that can detect and differentiate between certain primary colors. This sensor can detect and differentiate between the colors white, blue, green, and red. <p “>A color sensor is actually a very useful device.

In this project, we will demonstrate how to build temperature sensor circuit using a LM335 sensor. As a temperature sensor, the circuit will read the temperature of the surrounding environment and relay this temperature to us back in degrees Kelvin. The difference between an LM335 and LM34 and LM35 temperature sensors is the LM335 sensor

In this project, we will demonstrate how to build temperature sensor circuit using a TMP36 sensor. As a temperature sensor, the circuit will read the temperature of the surrounding environment and relay the temperature to us back in degrees fahrenheit. The IC we will use to measure the temperature is the TMP36 IC. We will
