I pull my curtain up and down a couple of times a day. If I watch a movie I pull it down and then, I pull it up to get better lighting. I also pull it down when I go to sleep and I pull it up again when I wake up. I want this […]

This was an Arduino wheelchair project we developed for Principles and Practices of Assistive Technology (PPAT) in Fall 2016 at MIT. We made an Arduino-based motorized wheelchair controller mount for our client, Lisa. She lives at the Boston Home, a center for people with progressive neurological diseases, and has Multiple Sclerosis. With her old controller

The Arduino Motor Shield allows you to easily control motor direction and speed using an Arduino. By allowing you to simply address Arduino pins, it makes it very simple to incorporate a motor into your project. It also allows you to be able to power a motor with a separate power supply of up to

Today, I’m going to show you how to make an Arduino motor shield (driver) at a low cost. It works splendidly, its posses almost all the characteristics of the original Arduino motor shield. It’s almost considered as a clone. The original Arduino motor shield has the same motor driver chip (L298), the only difference with it,

Designing a Spinning/Rotating LED Display In this project, we will demonstrate how to create a basic “Rotating LED Display” (commonly referred to as Spinning LED Display) using Arduino. The idea to start this project sparked in my mind after I noticed a product in the market that featured a clearly visible text message on a

I am presenting a compact design of a stripboard Arduino board (DIYduino) that includes a 2A motor driver and has additionally the functionality of a sensor shield. The 2-channel version cost approximately $29.43 and is more affordable compared to $39.00 for a commercially available system consisting of an Arduino Uno, $21.50, a sensor shield, $8.50,

Adafruit’s new MEMENTO – Bare Board Camera module is powered by the ESP32-S3 and can be programmed with CircuitPython or Arduino. The module includes a camera with an OV5640 sensor which features auto-focus capabilities and the board includes a 1.54″ 240×240 Color TFT to display the images. Previously we have covered many ESP32-based camera modules
We are Master students in the field of Electro-mechanical engineering at The Brussels Faculty of Engineering, commonly known as “Bruface.” This project is a collaboration between two universities situated in the heart of Brussels: the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) and the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB). As part of the program we had to make

Nordic Semiconductor today announces that Tundra Labs, a Green Bay, WI-based technology company, has selected Nordic’s nRF52832 multiprotocol System-on-Chip (SoC) for its ‘TL448K6D-VR module’. The TL448K6D-VR module assists developers to simplify and lower the cost of designing six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) tracked devices for Valve’s SteamVR gaming platform. The highly integrated module employs the 3.0 by 3.2mm
