Intro: RFID Cat Door Only the pet with the correct RFID tag can unlock this specific cat door/flap. Arduino is responsible for overseeing the process. It features a custom antenna large enough to function as a gate, enabling the animal to easily and consistently activate it. Some methods and techniques are borrowed from my previous […]

I recently worked on an Arduino project to create a low-cost thermal camera using an IR sensor and pan/tilt hardware. When observing the device image on the left, you will notice an acoustic range finder attached to the top as well. The tool functions by scanning a pattern of dots and constructing the picture gradually.

Motivation: Playing in a 2 piece band, with the drums and lots of other samples being played back as backing tracks, there was a need to use a looper to add in more elements to the tracks. A hardware based looper fails in this respect, since there is no way to maintain synchronisation. Meaning, slight

Update: The Arduino system is fine; the only thing you have to take into consideration is the 9.54 hour rollover event, which Rob Faludi has provided an excellent solution for here. I made up a nice little over-analysis of the issue, available here. For a while, I’ve wanted to make a clock that can change

Today, I constructed a compact 3x3x3 LED cube utilizing an ATtiny2313 that I acquired around 2 weeks ago. Every time I wanted to update the LED cube with better patterns, I had to bring out my breadboard, reconnect everything following ATtiny2313 pin-outs, and upload the updated code. I proceeded to search on eBay and Amazon

Have you ever faced this situation while sitting on your favorite spot on the couch or recliner, comfortably watching your favorite TV program? You’re snugly tucked under the blanket, the air conditioning is pleasantly cool, the sun outside is shining it’s delicate warm golden rays on the closed window, the air (from the air vents)

In theory, it is quite simple to perform sound localization by measuring the phase difference of signals received by two microphones that are far apart in space. The devil is always in the details. I have not come across any project made for Arduino like this before, and I am wondering if it is even

Introduction The Arduino platform has lowered the entry barrier for physical computing and IoT development. However, learning to code is also key. The Arduino Starter Kit Multi-language addresses this with an all-in-one solution for exploring Arduino through multiple programming languages. Included Hardware The kit includes an Arduino Uno, breadboard, jumper wires, LEDs, resistors, and buttons

Today, we will be measuring weight by connecting a Load Cell and HX711 Weight Sensor with Arduino. Weight machines can be found in various stores, and they show the weight when an item is placed on the weighing platform. Thus, we are constructing a weighing device with Arduino and load cells capable of measuring up

Old Sole interrupts normal youthful days to force young people to interact with their environment in a different way. If the young shoe-wearer takes significantly more steps than the elderly individual with the walker, the shoes light up and vibrate uncomfortably, reminding the young person that somebody on the other end of the old sole
