Let’s measure distances with an ultrasonic rangefinder (distance sensor) and Arduino’s digital input. We’ll connect up a circuit using a breadboard and use some simple Arduino code to control a single LED. You may have already learned to read a pushbutton and PIR motion sensor with Arduino’s digital input, and we’ll build on those skills in this lesson. Ultrasonic

Ultrasound ranging is a complicated task that made easy by the readily available module for Arduino. To detect or measure the distance it transmits the signal to the target and target reflects that back. Arduino measure time is taken for complete travel. As the speed of sound is known the distance in between module and

In this project, We’ll try to get some information from the human body by using simple sensors and Arduino. You can use this information to create a lie detector machine. At the end of this article, you : Know Polygraph and basics of measuring and recording physiological indicators. Will be familiar with Lie Detector systems.

In this tutorial we’re going to play with a gesture sensor (APDS-9960) and a neopixel ring to learn how to combine them both using an Arduino UNO. The end product will respond to left – right gestures by animating led movement right or left, and to up-down gestures by changing leds color. In the next

How to structure wind-sensor logging code: validated event windows, debounce assumptions, sleep gaps and how to interpret a failed cloud upload.
The aim of the project is to make a wearable t-shirt that displays an evocative graphic when air pollution is above a set threshold. The graphic is inspired by the classic game “brick breakers”, in that the car is like a paddle which spits out the exhaust (which are like balls) that “hit” pieces of

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
