In this instructable I'll show you how to make a simple tilt switch, this tilt switch works best with microcontrollers that can debounce the signal and overcome interferences produced by vibrations. There are many ways to make a tilt switch, this one is a cheap and easy way to do one. Pros: -Tiny. -Easy to make. -Extremely cheap. -Perfect for small projects with microcontrollers. Cons: -Vulnerable to vibrat ...

Out of curiosity, I ordered the tiny ESP8266 relay switch from aliexpress.com but never knew it could be so embarrassing to find the right way to operate. The vendor said that the switching program is inbuilt and I only have to use some android phone to operate it. But despite several attempts with several Chinese and English android apps, nothing happened The device gets connected with the WiFi of my PC or ...

In this tutorial we will show how to build WiFi internet connected switch connected to EasyIoT Cloud. We will use ESP8266, solid state relay and Arduino IDE. Switch can be controlled by WEB application, native Android application or button. Improved version of this switch can be found here: https://www.instructables.com/id/ESP8266-5-Internet-Connected-Switch-Improved/ This internet switch is "plug and play" ...

I started playing with electronics back when I was 10 years old in Argentina, where I grew up. Then I got my ham radio operator license when I was 16 years old and I was very active in the ham club and on the air. It was then when I built my first vacuum tube transmitter and refurbished and old receiver (also vacuum tubes) that somebody from the club was throwing away. My interest for science and electronic ...

This is a very low cost and basic from of home automation allowing you to turn on and off lights and other devices using your computer or mobile phone. It has been built and tested use using UK power plugs, but the same protocol is used on many budget remote power switchers from around the world. You will need...

This foot pedal plugs into the Arduino case which plugs into your PC via microUSB cable. Arduino microcontrollers can easily be used to power fun projects like robots and even sending tweets to Twitter but they’re versatile enough to turn up in the strangest of places – like under your feet. We had a question from a reader about whether it was possible to create a foot-operated mouse switch to help reduce h ...

Arduino Project – Touch Me Not I modified the Arduino project from the Arduino Starter Kit (Touch Sensor Lamp). Now it lights up an LED when your hand is close on the aluminium foil (without even touching it). This can be used as a ‘Touch-less Switch’. I just did it because it seemed pretty cool to me! How is this arduino project useful? Let me know how you think this can be useful, in the comments below. H ...

Connecting the Switch To connect the switch to the Arduino, you will need the switch, two jumper wires, and a 10kΩ (brown-black-orange) resistor. Once you have all the required parts, you will need to wire the switch to the Arduino using the breadboard. NOTE: The virtual board may be slightly different from the physical one. This is because of some limitations of the program used to create the virtual layou ...
