DIY boat with Arduino

Building a semi Smart, DIY boat with Arduino and some other sensors

I based this off of this really nice instructables.com post for building a water bottle boat, with some additions for obstacle avoidance and light-guided control. I used Arduino as a microcontroller, an ultrasonic sensor in the front, a few simple switches on the side of the boat, and a few light sensors on either side.  See here for a

Arduino Larson Scanner

Larson Scanner with Relay Module using Arduino

This time I’ll show how I used an Arduino to control a relay module with eight channels. Arduino in offers several advantages such as: – Open source; – Easy programming; – You can assemble your own board; – Is supported on various forums on the Internet; – Has several “shields” (facilitates the use of it

Integrated Sensor and L298N Motor Shield

Compact 3-in-1 Stripboard DIYduino with Integrated Sensor and L298N Motor Shield

I am presenting a compact design of a stripboard Arduino board (DIYduino) that includes a 2A motor driver and has additionally the functionality of a sensor shield. The 2-channel version cost approximately $29.43 and is more affordable compared to $39.00 for a commercially available system consisting of an Arduino Uno, $21.50, a sensor shield, $8.50,
