We had a project that required connection to a digital micrometer with a data output jack. The idea was to connect a microcontroller to the micrometer, to read the measurements and make decisions based on the readings. The micrometers that we used are made by Mitutoyo, and have a funky 52 character data stream in …

Interfacing hex keypad to arduino. This article is about how to interface a hex keypad to arduino. Hex keypad is a very important component in embedded systems and the typical applications are code locks, calculators, automation systems or simply any thing that requires a character  or numeric input. This project will display the pressed key …
This project turns on and turns off a laser LED after every second. It can also monitor its own supply voltage level. The circuit can be extended for use as an audio-visual alarm system for security applications. Keyes KY-008 laser transmitter module is available at www.ebay.com. But there is a lot of confusion regarding this …
Here we describe interfacing of three 16Ă—2 LCDs with common data lines to an Arduino Uno board. Four data lines of all the three LCDs are connected to digital pins of the Arduino Uno board but data displayed on each LCD is different. Circuit and working The circuit diagram for interfacing of three LCDs with …
In this article we interface Flame Sensor with Arduino and learn all the steps to build Fire Alarm System by using Arduino and flame sensor. Flame sensor module has photodiode to detect the light and op-amp to control the sensitivity. It is used to detect fire and provide HIGH signal upon the detection. Arduino reads the signal and provides alert by …

Interfacing LabVIEW With Arduino In previous article of Getting Started with LabVIEW, we have seen about LabVIEW and how it can be graphically programmed and executed in computer (software level). Now in this article we learn about How to Interface LabVIEW with Arduino Board. Requirements To interface LabVIEW with Arduino, you require the following software’s and hardware’s, …
In this tutorial we are going to design a system to read the ID of RFID cards. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification. Each card has a unique ID embedded in it. These systems have many applications, like in offices, shopping malls and in many other places where only the person with authorization card is allowed …
PIR sensors are widely used in motion detecting devices. This article is about interfacing a PIR sensor to 8051 microcontroller. A practical intruder alarm system using PIR sensor and 8051 microcontroller is also included at the end of this article. Before going in to the core of the article, let’s have a look at the …
