The Ping))) is an ultrasonic range finder from Parallax. It detects the distance of the closest object in front of the sensor (from 2 cm up to 3m). It works by sending out a burst of ultrasound and listening for the echo when it bounces off of an object. The Arduino board sends a short […]

After we came up with the Bi-color LED Matrix Driver Module kit, we have been looking around for interesting projects to work with it. You may be interested in some of the projects we have put up at instructables using this LED Matrix kit. Instructable to build a Arduino (SPI) 7 Bi-color LED Matrix Scrolling

This was my very first arduino project. Its great for beginners. Fade the color or the lights my moving your hands near it. It fades from a pretty purple blue to a firey red-orange. Its was SUPER easy to build, not to hard to write the code, and its really impresses people! I gave it

Step 1: Gather the materials Materials: – addressable RGB LED strip : I used a new variety of three conductor WS2811 strips. – an Arduino : I used a Arduino Leonardo. Any 5vdc Arduino should be adequate. – 4 AA batteries and a battery holder are a nice touch to make it more portable. –

Ever since my addressable RGB LED strips (WS2812B) came from Aliexpress, I’ve been fascinated with LED projects. Following up on my success with my Charlieplexed LED clock, I wanted to create something with more Jazz.. While browsing google images, I came across an instructable for an Arduino Infinity Mirror and the brain cells started working

Is it flying seal? A flapping alien? No it’s a ZAPpelin, an Arduino controlled indoor blimp, setup to learn in the signals from an IR remote to command it. This project came to life at the third Arduino Jam Februari 15th to17th 2013, at Timelab, Ghent, Belgium. Our team consisted of: –charles32 –mgossye –myself (masynmachien)

A zoetrope is a mechanical device that animates a series of pictures by spinning them fast enough that the images appear to merge together and move, My digital zoetrope works on a similar principal, by flashing the LEDs while they are spinning it is possible to display text, patterns and possible even simple animations. My
