My purpose for this project was to take a knot and “show” its construction by tracing its path. It was only through happenstance that I discovered my chosen medium (2 metres of NeoPixel LED lights) fit so well with Adafruit’s snow globe. You might choose not to knot your lights at all. You could just …
An 8x8x8 LED cube is a visual treat with 3D effects and patterns. It works on the concept of Persistence of Vision, a feature of the human eye which tricks our brain in to thinking that an object is present permanently at a place if it appear about 60 times in a second. Since an …
In this instructable, you will be taught how to make a decorative robot head light by using RGB LED lights to create a visual effect in the robot’s mouth, the lights can shine brightly colored rainbow lights back and forth, almost as if the robot is tryiing to communicate! This design can be used at …
Hi every one, here Chris, and I want to show you how I made my own Arduino AC dimmer that can control AC loads such as motors and lights easily. It has the power to handle 1200+ Watts and It’s a very nice project for domotics and home automation because the microcontroller I used is …

Welcome to an Arduino beginner project. It’s a simplification of my previous instructable; it’s designed to be easier to reproduce. This is a timing minigame where the active light moves back and forth across a row of lights in order. When the button is pressed the light stops. If the light stops on the center light …
The design was inspired by a product that is also presented on Instructable called “Arduino Basics with Night Light” (https://www.instructables.com/Arduino-Basics-With-…). Originally, the device is only allowed to change the LED lights by pushing down a button; after adding the codes and circuits (added: a speaker to notify the user for using recommended relatively peaceful color-blue/a …

Remember Simon? We sure do. Simon — as in “Simon says…” — from the leading edge of electronic games in the 1970s, which used four buttons, colored lights, and simple tones as the basis for a memory game. Players had to remember the specific sequence of lights and replay the pattern in order to advance …

Green Lights is a project that was created to teach students about physical computing. This includes Inputs and Outputs, Electricity, programming with Arduino, and a little bit about traffic control systems. The intersection will be setup at the front of the classroom and students will be split up into teams. Teams will be given note …
This is my instructable on charlieplexing a LED row/string with the arduino. I noticed that there weren’t many instructables on charlieplexing using an arduino, so i made this. I tried to keep the project simple, but that didn’t work very well. The soldering is complex, I wouldn’t recommend this as a first time soldering project. …

Glowables come in all shapes and sizes, and we’re always keen to see the multitude of different ways hackers find to put great masses of LEDs to good use. [cabrera.101] wanted to get in on the action, and whipped up a rather flashy icosahedron. The build uses high-density 144-LED-per-meter strips for the edges, with 60-LED-per-meter strips …
This is a project that I created for my Children and Technology class that I am taking in my Masters of Library Science Program. This was one of my first experiences with coding so this was a trial and error process but this instructable should outline my success throughout the process. My initial inspiration came …
