Do you want to control your TV and several other gadgets that are IR controlled? Ya but my phone doesn’t support it because it doesn’t have an IR blaster.Don’t worry here a gadget that gives IR control to any phone and the thing it needs is bluetooth!! YES!! bluetooth!! The gadget also increases the range

This instructable will teach you to build a simple Arduino based Voting machine using simple components such as push buttons and LCD. The highlighting feature of this system is that Serial Monitor in Arduino IDE is used to perform the polling operation no other external applications needed. Key Features: Every step of polling operation will

The purpose of the Home Energy Monitor Final Project is to give people a better idea how much electrical power they consume in a residential system. The method used for this application will utilize a clip on noninvasive current sensor on each 120V line coming in to the residential breaker panel box. The power data
