I’m a graphic design student and built this project for a beginning electronics class. I’m interested in connecting the signals generated by one’s body to the act of visual generation. This piece takes the galvanic skin response value of the user and uses it to fuel the creation of a visual on screen. Galvanic skin […]

In some of my previous Arduino instructurables I have show to the Arduino beginers on how to control servos in different ways. And in my last instructurable I have show the modification of a Parallax servo for a 360º rotation. So in this one I will show Arduino beginers the use of those 360º rotation servos. With that

So you’re here because you want to start learning some of the Arduino Basics… So let’s start with THE most basics… no this “tutorial” is actually a little more basic than what you have in mind. It only requires that you: Have ANY Arduino Board. Have installed the drivers and required software for the board

Most electronics projects require some common stuff like regulated power supply, input tact switches, and output LEDs during prototyping and testing phase. Wiring these things on a breadboard for every new project could be time consuming and boring. We introduce you the Basic Experimenter Board, a general purpose development tool that will not only reduce

What’s simpler and dumber than a button, you ask… I say: behind a button, unexpected things can hide. And within a program that does various things, handling a button can be tricky. The nice thing is that interesting functions can be built with a simple dumb button. This tutorial will address these aspects: wiring and

Arduino is cool. It’s cool because it’s a tiny device – about three inches by two inches – that comes with a USB port and a programmable chip. It’s cool because you can program it using a very simple programming language known as Wiring. But most of all, it’s cool because the entire reference design

Hello guys! In this instructable I’ll teach you how to make a very simple proximity sensor using infrared LEDs and Arduino. After several times trying to optimize it, I finally came up with something that is quite simple e precise. Just like my first instructable, this project is perfect for beginners in the arduino’s world, with
Simple IR proximity sensor with Arduino Continue Reading
Here’s a simple Arduino-based datalogger I’m currently developing: This test-of-concept model is based on the Arduino Pro Mini (ATMega168). It runs on a 1.5-V battery, using a voltage up-converter from Sparkfun.com. For a sensor, it’s using a 3-axis accelerometer on a breakout board, also from Sparkfun. It has one button for control. When the device
