This Instructable is to build a very smart, talking campsite security system that is disguised in an owl decoy. Now, this isn’t your typical Arduino ultrasonic distance sensing project. Rather, you will learn how to reverse engineer the very inexpensive, but far superior automotive bumper backup sensors for very wide beams of detection. You’ll also learn how

Hello there! I hope you all are fine and in good health. This instructable is about making your own current sensor that is compatible with Arduino and most other widely popular microcontrollers. This project features a compact design and an all SMD component based circuit, making this sensor module very compact for it’s range. This

Note: this sketch is a work-in-progress and only partly tested. This multi-file sketch is provided to serve as a template for projects which combine responsive sensing and actuation with behavioral logic, implemented using a non-blocking event loop. The actual sketch does nothing specifically useful, but just exercises various sensors and actuators. This is in keeping

N.B. this is new and still being tested. This sketch demonstrates an example of ultrasonic range sensor data processing using a combination of signal filters and a classification tree. The classifier code was generated using the Python script classify_gen.py on recorded and labeled training data. The underlying classification tree was automatically generated using the Python scikit-learn library. For more

In the spring every year, we have a group of robins who start making nests around the house. We also have lots of windows in a patio area that when the robins see their reflection they think it’s a rival bird. They attack the windows repeatedly for months. They land on the chairs, railing and

Arduino Pot Plant Soil Moisture Sensor I have been struggling with over watering of my indoor pot plants, especially succulents. To this end I decided to make a simple Soil Moisture sensor that can tell me when the moisture level of my pot is too high (over watered), too low or just right! Supplies Capacitive

Greetings everyone! We hope you are in good health. We live in a world where any form of physical contact between two human beings is starting to pose serious health issues. Keeping this in mind, a while ago, we had worked on an automatic water tap using an Infrared sensor to detect the presence of
