Recently I’ve been learning about Ultrasonic waves and how to harness their power. It’s simple enough to make some type of sonar device, but I wanted to take at a step cooler and see if I could use Ultrasonic waves to not only detect movement, but also the direction of that movement. So let’s take […]
In this Instructable, I’ll be explaining how to build a motion activated alarm! It uses an Arduino microcontroller, a PIR (passive infrared) sensor, and a type of alarm. You can use an LED indicator, a buzzer, or a piezo. That’s the easy part. I will also be showing how to display to a character LCD
Don’t let a clogged drain slow you down!Coming back from our vacation, me and my wife were surprised by the water covering the floor of our apartment, and we found out it’s not even clean water, it’s drain everywhere. After clearing the drain and cleaning the floor, I had this question: why don’t we have
Colour reading is a real issue for industrial models. I’ve been working on it for more than 12 months now, since December 2009. After many months of hard work, • starting with the standard colour reader (season 1 ) with features a red LED, • adding extra light from bulb lamps (season 2 ), •

Wireless power transfer systems are well on their way to replacing conventional wired charging. Ranging from tiny biomedical implants all the way to wirelessly recharging huge electric vehicles. An integral part of the research on wireless power is minimizing the magnetic field density. The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) provides scientific advice and
BTW!!!!! This instructable is awsomeeeeeeThis is a very simple but at the same time a very hard project depending on your skill level. Lets get to building! What this is, is a wireless animatronic hand that doesn’t need a computer to operate. The user wears a control glove and can control the animatronic hand precisely.
This is a simple Arduino sketch that was originally designed to experiment with arrays and the built-in timing functionality. I based it on the tutorial sample code http://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Knock The system consists of a piezo sensor connected to an analog pin that listens for a knock from the user. The Arduino then stores the time the knock
Hello everyone! This instructable is a tutorial that will guide you on using the Capacitive touch sensors with Arduino. A Capacitive sensor is a kind of touch sensor, that requires little or no force to activate. In this Instructable about capacitive touch sensing, I’ll show you: How Capacitive Sensors work How to use them with
This is a tutorial for using the 7-Key Slider/Wheel Breakout from Rachel’s Electronics. I’ll show you how to solder up the header pins for maximum usability. Rachel’s has the QT1106 datasheet on their site, and a great arduino library for this breakout. The kit from Rachel’s Electronics comes packed with cool stuff: QT1106 breakout with
It is a model of RADAR. It describes how a radar works in real time. Description RADAR model is used to know how the real time radar works. It is constructed using ARDUINO UNO, ULTRASONIC SENSOR and SERVO MOTOR. We also used to show the output. That software name is PROCESSING 3. Code for software PROCESSING 3: Code for
