ARDUINO AND BMP280 BASED WEATHER STATION

ARDUINO AND BMP280 BASED WEATHER STATION

Weather stations are interesting projects for beginners and very useful for expert makers. They are usually quite simple to build but also provide fairly accurate and useful weather data. We have built a couple of them in different tutorials on this website, with the difference usually being, the combinations and sometimes the accuracy of the sensors used.

Light Sensor Photoresistor With Arduino in Tinkercad

Light Sensor (Photoresistor) With Arduino in Tinkercad

Let’s learn how to read a photoresistor, a light-sensitive type of variable resistor, using Arduino’s Analog Input. It’s also called an LDR (light-dependent resistor). So far you’ve already learned to control LEDs with Arduino’s analog output, and to read a potentiometer, which is another type of variable resistor, so we’ll build on those skills in this lesson.

ARDUINO IOT CLOUD PUBLIC BETA VERSION BRINGS NEW OPPORTUNITIES

ARDUINO IOT CLOUD PUBLIC BETA VERSION BRINGS NEW OPPORTUNITIES

Arduino has never ceased to impress everyone, and recently have launched the Beta version of their IoT cloud that brings in more awesomeness. The beta version brings autonomy to the Arduino and Makers ecosystem. Now, the connection between an Arduino board and cloud is no more dependent upon services like “ThingSpeak”, “Thinger.io” and several others. The Arduino IoT Cloud is a  simple and

IMPROVED Smart LED Candle Reactive to Sound and Aesthetically Pleasing

*IMPROVED* Smart LED Candle: Reactive to Sound and Aesthetically Pleasing

Remember the “smart” LED candle from a few months ago? Well, the idea was nice, but the overall execution lacked some oomph. Technologically and aesthetically speaking there was a lot to improve. First off, as an artist, I wanted the container for the candle to look amazing. Or at least better than the old cardboard box I
