Arduino Regulated Light

Solar Powered LED/Ultracapacitor Arduino Regulated Light

This instructable primarily shows how to control the charging voltage from a solar panel to an energy storage device (capacitors in this case). I showed how to construct the light previously http://www.instructables.com/id/Human-Powered-Light-from-my-book-Doable-Renewab/ Step 1: This solar panel can produce up to 18 volts, but my capacitor bank should never receive more than 15 volts.  I

Arduino based camera trigger unit

Arduino – based camera trigger unit

I developed the camera trigger unit in order to synchronize various events and actions during free-flight experiments with hawkmoths in the wind tunnel described in a previous post. More specifically, the goal was to trigger multiple high-speed cameras and have LEDs that indicate the exact timing of electrical stimuli delivered via a miniature stimulus chip

Reactive Observant Vacuous Emotive Robot

R.O.V.E.R.: Reactive Observant Vacuous Emotive Robot using arduino

R.O.V.E.R. is an autonomous robot. He was built and designed as an interactive art installation specifically for the MAT EoYS 2013. He navigates the space with a heat array and bump sensors and interacts with attendees. When R.O.V.E.R. recognizes that a person is present he plays a song. If people are still visible and how

Smallsword Choreography Shirt usnig arduino

Stage combat is the art of theatrical violence.  Rather than resembling fencing, stage combat is choreographed like dance for aesthetic and theatrical effect as well as for safety.  Over years of choreographing and teaching others stage combat choreography, I realized that one of the most difficult aspects of teaching someone choreography is the necessity of

RFM12B Part 1 Hardware Overview

RFM12B – Part 1 – Hardware Overview

To see how RFM12B wireless compares to other similar wireless options (e.g Xbee, XRF etc..) check out this well compiled comparison overview by Stuart Poulton: http://blog.homelabs.org.uk/wireless-connectivity/. Overview Made by Hope RF, re-branded by RFsolutions in the UK. Sometimes called ‘Alpha RF’ Low cost RF transceiver (from Rapid, Farnell, or RS in the UK) Up to 300m transmission Up

Arduino Fighting Robots

Ardusumo: an Open Source Platform for Fighting Robots using Arduino

The idea Ardusumo is a universal platform to build robots on wheels that can move around avoiding obstacles using infrared sensors and follow routes marked with dark lines on a white background. We have created Ardusumo to bring young students to the world of robotics: if suitably programmed, Ardusumo allows robots to perform various autonomous
