The project conducted as part of the Computational Design and Digital Fabrication seminar in the ITECH masters program and was brought to you by Vanessa Costalonga, James Hayward and Christo van der Hoven. Have you ever doubted the choices that you make? Have you ever looked elsewhere for wisdom and clarity only to find disappointment

This project shows how to make an interactive picture of a dandelion. It starts as a yellow flower with LED’s for petals then changes into a white dandelion clock, which can be blown on to make the seeds disperse. It is based on a beautiful artwork by Qi Jie, whose picture was inspired by a

This gaming box is made from Arduino Uno R3, LoLShield, MPU6050 and Microphone module. With LoLShield, we can show a message/scrolling message or animation picture like: plasma effect, sinewave effect… With MPU6050, we can read value from accelerometer and gyroscope to control movement for simple games like: Pong, Tetris, Invader…And we also make a scrolling

This project is a small, battery-powered LED ring that fits perfectly inside of your Rav Vast drum. It uses color-changing RGB LEDs and a microphone that allows you to change the color or pattern with changes in volume. You don’t need any special skills for the construction (though you may pick some up along the way) Step

Noise pollution has really started to gain importance due to high population density. A normal human ear could hear sound levels from 0dB to 140dB in which sound levels from 120dB to 140dB are considered to be noise. Loudness or sound levels are commonly measured in decibel(dB), we have some instruments which could measure the

This sketch shows you how to read the microphone sensor. The microphone will range from 0 (total silence) to 1023 (really loud). It uses the sound level to set a brightness level for the green LED. When you’re using the sensor’s reading (for example, to set the brightness of the LED), you map the sensor’s

I built this a short while ago as an idea to use in a primary classroom setting. Poster displays are often used by primary teachers wanting to control the noise levels in their classrooms but I wanted to add technology to make it dynamic and responsive. The motivation for this came after seeing the Adafruit

Hi guys, during the last few weeks, I’ve been working on reconnecting with my love for the guitar. Playing the box guitar was how I relax few years back before the saxophone took over. Going back to the guitar, after 3 years of rarely strumming a chord, I discovered amongst other things that I

Story Wiscore: Integrating Arduino with Alexa As part of the series of tutorials for the Wiscore Alexa AVS EVK, we will see how to integrate Arduino boards (Uno, Leonardo, Due etc) directly with Alexa Voice Service. The Wiscore board provides the means to communicate with other devices via the UARTs. We will in depth on
Integrating Wiscore Alexa EVK and Arduino via Serial Port Continue Reading
In this project, we will go over how to connect a microphone to an arduino so that the arduino can detect whether there is sound in the environment or not. This circuit is only capable of detecting whether there is sound in the environment or not. It won’t be able to record the words that
