Bring out your 3D glasses and enjoy viewing in a novel way! I have added a new dimension to my instructable. If you do not have 3D glasses, then you can make one yourself. The following link explains how to make 3D glasses ( link ). Please Note: This instructable contains 3D images which are best viewed with […]

The Arduino offers the advantage that a lot of people are using it so it is usually quite easy to get help or information via the internet. The main website for the Arduino is: http://www.arduino.cc/. The Arduino can also be programmed to behave in many different ways. It has 6 analog pins (continuously varying controls

This was created to be some eye-candy for my kitchen. I wanted something unique for a special blank space on my wall, and adding movement, blinky lights and interesting mechanical “guts” made it even better. Ultimately, this project ended up requiring the following range of skills: 1. Basic mechanical skills 2. Light metalworking and fabrication

Origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. In this project, with a little help from an Arduino, you can bring your origami into the 21st century and make it an interactive art! The result shown here uses Bare Conductive paint to give an origami flower proximity sensing powers. When you put your hand

In this quick Arduino tutorial I will explain how you can control a relay using the Arduino Board, one 1K and one 10K resistors, 1 BC547 transistor, one 6V or 12V relay, one 1N4007 diode and a 12V fan. When the button is pressed the fan will turn ON and will remain in this state

This is an extremely cheap IR proximity sensor you can make with a few cheap parts and an AVR programmer. I use an Arduino as my programmer in this Instructable. This sensor only has a range of about 3 inches. You can easily add more LEDs or brighter ones to extend the range. You can

This server room environmental monitoring system is a low cost high performance device with the same onboard features as commercial devices costing hundreds of dollars more. In addition to a low cost platform we will provide low cost sensors for many important devices to insure your equipment stays safe and sound. Full instructions are available

I’m researching squeeze sensing as a mode of tactile interface. Here I will cover the process of developing a squeezeable sensor and the firmware/software concerns associated with interpreting the data from the sensor. This fulfills the “sensor project” for my class called Computational Principles in Media Arts taught in AME at ASU by Todd Ingalls
Sensing Squeeze using Arduino Continue Reading
Here we will be learning how to make a color sensor. my model consists of three cardboard compartments containing an LED – one red, one blue, and one green – and an OP550B phototransistor. The LED’s shine simultaneously on a solid colored card. The phototransistors are connected to an Arduino Uno, which converts the relative

This is a PIR motion sensor device that works with the arduino uno. In order to make it covert enough to be placed in multiple settings and portable enough to fit most places, I decided to make the case for it appear as a speaker. The inspiration for this project: My cat is a jerk. One of his
