This post introduces in details one of the latest boards from the Arduino Team: a board that we still didn’t cover that much on the blog. YÚN’s DNA is that of the Arduino family lately open to new requirements and perspectives: Embedded Linux, Ethernet and WiFi with a board that is easy to use and […]

I’ve reached the point where I need to think how I’m going to control the motor & linear actuator for my solar tracker. Things to consider – Must be able to go forwards and backwards – so that makes 4 channels, 2 for each motor. Must be able to provide enough power to drive the
This is my Magical Music Box which converts music into a light show. When i was daydreaming what to make for my final project, i wanted something that would make a light show for any song simply by hearing it. Materials used: 1x arduino 8x 1k ohm resistors 5x 10k ohm 7x 560 ohm 3x

This is an instructable for the Interactive LED Lab Coats, showcased at Autodesk University. Check out the videos below! The first is a demo of the colors actuated by the buttons. The second is a demo of the breathalyzer! (this will be explained later) Tools Sewing machine Soldering iron Wire cutters & strippers Hobby knife
Introduction My project is about providing multiple saved cartoon sounds then do funny effect on them through controlling the speed of play either faster or slower. it contains 4 sound files: Crazy Frog, Bird is the Word “by Family Guy”, oompa loompa “by Willy Wonka movie”, and a guitar chord to give one of

I am teaching a robotics course in my kids high school (Rambam Mesivta in Lawrence, NY). I was looking for a cost effective way to teach them about the priciples of robotics without spending an arm and a leg, and getting them excited about the prospects of hacking hardware and teach them how to interface
[OoB] Shooting paintball maker with relay, Arduino and .NET WinForms My first Arduino based project was Sonar with C#, JS and HTML5. Now I continue the “Out of Boredom” series with a setup that allows firing a paintball marker (gun) with a command sent from a computer 🙂 This time software stack is simpler –

what: a 5*5 rgb led matrix, made with arduino and lpd6803 based leds from adafruit. with an pir sensor, it goes on if it detects movements and a ir distace sensor, 1 animation shows the distance you have from the sensor :). why: because its beautiful and cool 😉 my spelling: well, sorry if i

Andrew O’Malley, an amazingly creative maker, created this fanstastic Open Source Arduino-based clock that can display the time in many different ways: if not enough, one can also add his own personal animation. Compared to other clocks based on Arduino, this one has two distinctive features: a single board with the ATmega 328P chip plus
