In the two previous projects, the LED turns on and off automatically. Now, you will control the LED manually using a pushbutton. Step 1: What You Will Need The parts you will need are all included in this Maker kit. SwiftIO board Shield Button module 4-pin cable Step 2: Button The button, or pushbutton, is always …
This Zoom emergency quit button lets you exit out of your meeting in an instant. It is simple to make and requires very little electronics experience. I built this because I was always searching around for the quit button on the bottom of the screen and seemed to always be that last person to leave …
ABOUT THIS PROJECT I made a dice throwing prototype: if you press the button, a random number between 1 and 6 is generated and the corresponding number of LEDs are lit up. This was a holiday project with my kids 🙂 Dice throwing prototype using Arduino UNO, a button switch and 6 LEDs. Full tutorial …
In this instructable we will learn how to use 6 buttons to control the color of an RGB LED with the use of an Arduino Micro Controller. This is a fun and easy little project that should take you no more then 20 minutes to finish. Step 1: Connecting an RGB LED Before we connect …
I have never played the real cyclone arcade game but I like the idea to play with our reaction time. I designed a miniaturized game. It consists in 32 LEDs forming a circle, the LEDs lights up one by one as a led chaser. The goal is to press a button when the red LED …
We’re spending the majority of our time on Zoom today, and yet we still keep forgetting to mute/unmute and embarrassing ourselves. Sure, the Zoom UI is far from perfect, but as makers, we should be solving our own problems ourselves instead of blaming it on tech companies: so here it is, a DIY Bidirectional Zoom Mute …
One thing that I’ve always needed for my projects is a simple form of input and output. At first, it was a simple push button and an led on a breadboard. The breadboard mounted buttons are inconvenient. So I created a 3D printed stand to hold an arcade button. Because some arcade buttons came with …

With this ‘Test Fixture’ and provided software you can test virtually any MCU with as little as 4 digital I/O lines (even only 2 is possible, all be it tricky) for project suitability and performance. When I start a new project I don’t like hooking up a lot of wires before making any progress on …
Once you’ve got a pushbutton working, you often want to do some action based on how many times the button is pushed. To do this, you need to know when the button changes state from off to on, and count how many times this change of state happens. This is called state change detection or edge detection. Circuit image developed …
I made the original Instructible that this is based on over a year ago (You can see it here to see some of the theory around how this works:http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-access-5-buttons-through-1-Arduino-input ). To make a long story short, I moved to a different country a few weeks after that and have not played with any electronics since. …
Chachka is born! Chachka is an Adafruit Trinket CLONE built from the ATtiny85 microcontroller. Because it is a current Adafruit product, it has a training guide and its own support forum and lots of sample code. All of this means that like an Uno clone, the Chachka will be well supported with firmware and libraries and …
