For many people, the biggest change of 2020 has been adjusting to a glut of online teleconferences as a part of daily working life. [p_leriche] has had to adjust the way church services are conducted, and found managing a complicated streaming meeting setup to be complicated at best. To ease the workload on the presenter, he […]

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

Passwords are hard… and remembering a secure one is even harder! On top of that if you have along, convoluted password it will take time to type. But fear not my friends, I have a solution to this! I Created a little auto-typing machine that will output the passwords into the computer. Now there is
Keyboard Injection/Auto Type Your Password With One Click! Continue Reading
It happens to pretty much everyone who gets into keyboards. No commercial keyboard can meet all your needs, so you start building them. Use them a while, find problems, build a new keyboard to address them. Pretty soon you think you have enough user experience to design the perfect keeb — the be-all, end-all magnum opus

In one of my previous Instructable, I showed you how to control a model railway layout using a keyboard. It did great but had a drawback of requiring a computer to operate. In this Instructable, let’s see how to control a model train using a keyboard through Arduino. So, without further ado, let’s get started. Step 1:
Keyboard Controlled Model Train V2.0 | PS/2 Interface Continue Reading
The ANAVI Macro Pad 8 is an open source, mini 8-key programmable keypad. Each key can be reprogrammed to activate a macro or even a dedicated shortcut, all without any coding experience says its creators. Thn aks to the keypad being powered by the advanced, but easy-to-use Quantum Mechanical Keyboard (QMK) open source firmware. “ANAVI
This instructable describes how to turn a Commodore 64 computer into a bluetooth keyboard. It involves programming a micro controller with the Arduino IDE and constructing a circuit board. Supplies you’ll need (some are optional): Commodore 64 with keyboard (remove mother board, it is not used) (2) 74HC595 shift registers (8) 1N4148 diodes (3) 220

All by itself, a calculator based on an Arduino isn’t necessarily very novel. However, [Volos] has a nice board that, of course, looks like a calculator. There are 16 keys and an LED display. But it seems to us the real value would be using this as a base for other projects. As an inexpensive development board,
This is a version 2.0 of one of my first forays into Arduino and DIY MIDI programming. I’ve developed my skills in prototyping and design so I thought it would be a good demonstration of process and progression. With a more informed design process I recycled the buttons from my first attempt and set off
No matter how clicky your keyboard is, nothing compares to the sensory experience of using a typewriter. The sounds that a typewriter makes, from the deep clunk of hitting the spacebar to the staccato of keys striking paper to the ratchety kerchunk of returning the carriage, are a delight compared to the sterile, soulless clicks
