We all know that there’s not much to do with an old hard drive. Once you render the platters unreadable and perhaps harvest those powerful magnets, there’s not much left of interest. Unless, of course, you turn the whole thing into a persistence-of-vision clock. At least that’s what [Leo] did when he created “PendoLux”. The clock

We are nation of obsessive counters: of pulse, steps, followers and calories. Most of these numbers mean little as physiology cannot be reduced to these metrics. But we try and I wondered how do we count a breath? Remember the cinematic days before hospital demise a cold mirror was a crude indicator of expiring breath.

As a long time lurker I finally decided this project was worthy of a write up (also I’m killing for an instructables tshirt). I love this site and hope you enjoy this project. IMPORTANT!Just a quick heads up, there are optional steps in this build. Your horn will be fully functional by step6 however I have included

Problem: my dad is registered as deaf and my mum is hearing impaired and due to this they often find it difficult to hear the doorbell. This could be a problem suffered by many others as well. They bought a flashing light doorbell to help them with this (a small box with a light that

Everyone has seen the commercials for preloaded flash drives. They advertise how you can have a custom flash drive with your logo and whatever information you need on it all ready to go. This is an excellent idea for those who are looking to save time, as well as those looking to save money. This

its a simple project that uses the a ethernet shield server to give a advanst web page with flash games on it. Step 2: The code::: you can download this code at the end: load up the ethernet server example and delete the code for uploading the analog inputs. then enter this: client.println(“<h1>Arduino streamer</h1>”); client.println(“<title>Arduino

I’m a huge fan of technology and music, but when I decided to start making my own electronic music, I was discouraged by the high price of MIDI keyboards and controllers. After a lot of tinkering, I saw the opportunity to create my own MIDI keyboard using an Arduino Uno and electric paint, for a

Arduino M0 Pro The Arduino M0 Pro —initially called Zero Pro— board is a major revision of the Arduino line as it is the first Arduino board to feature a debugger. The board is designed around the 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0+ SAMD21 from Atmel and built in Italy. The EDBG chip from Atmel provides the debugging capabilities. The SAMD21 MCU features

Many years ago, I think it was in 1997, I stepped into an interesting circuit on a book about high voltage [1]. It was the diagram of a simple “lightning flash counter” intended to help in designing lightning protections on power lines. The description was very brief, but following the bibliography reference, I could find
