For this Instructable, I have made a primitive musical soundboard using an ultra sensor as a keyboard. Here I will show you the basic steps on how to create such a device yourself. Later on, in December, I will demonstrate to you how to make a more complex or soldered version of this soundboard with

Arduino is not restricted to receiving data from sensors only; you have the ability to also link a full-size PS/2 keyboard and type as you would on a traditional computer. Attaching a keyboard to an Arduino may seem strange (since it’s a small microcontroller), however, it should be noted that an Arduino has greater processing

The Arduino is perhaps the coolest thing on earth. There are many types, the Uno, the Mega, the Pro, the Pro Mini, etc. etc. But one thing that often can be a problem is that you only have a limited number of inputs and outputs. There are many solutions for that, ranging from multiplexers to

This instructable will show you how to control your computer’s keyboard and mouse with an Android app via bluetooth to an Arduino BACKGROUND Ever wanted to control your computer’s mouse/keyboard functionality without having to actually sit in front of it? I do all the time. For instance, I often hook my laptop up to the

This example illustrates the use of the Mouse and keyboard libraries together. Five momentary switches act as directional buttons for your cursor. When a button is pressed, the cursor on your screen will move, and a keypress will be sent to the computer. Once you have the Leonardo programmed and wired up, open up your

Communicating with a host computer can allow a simple Arduino-based system to gain access to a wide variety of devices and information. Most people link an Arduino to a host using serial communications across a USB connection with custom code running on the host to send information to the Arduino or receive it in return,

Hi, all! Today I’ m trying to explain you my last project: “The morse code generator by a PS\2 keyboard” I’ ve used an PS/2 keyboard to send input to my Arduino board (like described in here) and transform it in morse code that activate a speaker and a relay. Components: – PS\2 keyboard –

When the button is pressed in this example, a text string is sent to the computer as keyboard input. The string reports the number of times the button has been pressed. Once you have the Leonardo programmed and wired up, open up your favourite text editor to see the results. NB: When you use the

This example shows how to use the tone() command to generate different pitches depending on which sensor is pressed. Circuit Connect one terminal of your speaker to digital pin 8 through a 100 ohm resistor, and its other terminal to ground. Power your three FSRs (or any other analog sensor) with 5V in parallel. Connect each

The Origin My dad is a musician. He can play a multitude of instruments. However, he only has two arms, BUT he also has legs! That’s when we decided that we would reuse the foot pedals from an old organ and convert them into an arduino powered MIDI keyboard. Now he can easily play electric
