Hello! In this Instructable i will teach you how to control a servo using a Photocell. This is very simple and good for beginners. Step 1: Materials 1 x Photocell 1 x 10k Resistor 1 x Arduino 1x Breadboard 1x Servo and some jumpers Step 2: Wiring it up Wire everything following the schematic below. …
I’m going to show you how to use your Arduino to control up to 12 servos at once with minimal jitter. Using a simple serial interface you can control the position of up to 12 servo channels. Up to 10 snapshot positions can be saved and played back at any time. Start up values for …
Hi, in this instructable i am showing you how to build a very nice and very sturdy pan & tilt turret for your rc / arduino projects. (Please don`t judge my english grammer etc. i`m from holland) The things that you need for this project are not expansive or hard to find so it should be easy …
The Problem: You want to restrict the time when your pet is allowed to go outside. This could be because the neighborhood is not safe for your cat or small dog at night (marauding coyotes comes to mind). But you would like your pet to be able to come in at any time. The Solution: Pet …
This instructable will show you show to build an Arduino shield which can be used to control 3 servos and 1 stepper motor using 4 potentiometers. You will need: access to a laser printer/cnc router/etching chemicals 7 x 3 pin 3.5mm terminal blocks 2 x 2 pin 3.5mm terminal blocks 2 x 8 pin stackable …
In this instructible I will show you how I make my servo stand. This stand is useful if you want to test a new way to control a servo but dont want to use a servo on your robot or something. make Step 1: Cut the wood cut 2 5inch pieces of 2×4 then measure …
Everything’s getting smarter right? So why not your Trash Bin? This trash bin Opens and Closes its lid if it sees any Rubbish in front of it. You just need to bring the rubbish to it and it’ll open automatically and will wait for you to feed it more then after a certain delay it’ll …
Record and Play 3D Printed Robotic Arm using Arduino Robotic Arms have proved themselves useful and more productive in many applications where speed, accuracy and safety is required. But to me, what’s more than that is these things are cool to look at when they work. I have always wished for a robotic arm that could help …

Arduino NRF24L01 Tutorial to Control Servo Motor While Internet of things (IoT), Industry 4.0, Machine to Machine communication etc are getting increasingly popular the need for wireless communication has become incumbent, with more machines/devices to speak with one another on the cloud. Designers use many wireless communication systems like Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 4.0), Zigbee, …

Use an Arduino and a servo to shoot food to your cat! (Also works with other animals). Check out the video below to see how this Arduino Servo Catapult works. While maybe not the most practical application, this project will teach you the basics of servo motors and analog inputs, which can be implemented into more practical …

This is something I’ve already worked on but was never really happy with the result, mainly because the potentiometre that I used was of poor quality and hence non linear and “jumpy”… The problem is simple: I need to have a reliable and easy to use servo tester, that I can use to test/play with a …
In this tutorial we will develop a circuit using Force sensor, Arduino Uno and a servo motor. It will be a servo control system where the servo shaft position is determined by the weight present on the force sensor. Before going any further let’s talk about about the servo and other components. Servo Motors are used …
