Makers and hobbyists enjoy design environments that can automatically identify and bring up hardware when it is connected to a host computer (for example: Arm mbed & Arduino). For professional engineers, this level of assistance may at first seem unnecessary, but in fact it can significantly improve the evaluation and design process and yield really
[Tom Stanton] has been playing Microsoft Flight Simulator a lot recently, and decided his old desktop joystick needed an upgrade. Instead of just replacing it with a newer commercial model, he built a complete controller system with a long joystick that pivots at floor level, integrated rudder pedals and a throttle box. You can see it in

As my first project with Arduino, I would like to share how we can make a homemade Aquarium Management System. If you want your fish to be fed automatically and if you want to check the aquarium status like temperature, water level etc., this project might help you. Step 1: The Components Here we are
One of the disadvantages of having cheap WiFi-capable boards like those based on the ESP32 is that you have to update them. If you have even a few in every room of your house, it can be a pain to pull them out and connect them to a cable for programming. Over the air programming
For some of us, our workbench is where organization goes to die. Getting ready to tackle a new project means sweeping away a pile of old projects, exposing exactly as much bench space needed to plop down the new parts. On the other end of the spectrum lie those for whom organization isn’t a means

With little more than an Arduino, an OLED display, and some buttons, it’s easy to build your own faux-retro game system. There’s even a growing library of titles out there that target this specific combination of hardware, thanks in no small part to the Arduboy project. But unless you’re content to play Circuit Dude on a breadboard,
If you need to keep your workshop a little tidier and are looking for own easy to build Arduino air filtration system you might be interested in a new project which is activated whenever it hears a machine start-up. Watch the video below to learn more about the automated air filtration system which is based
Introduction In this tutorial, we will go over how to connect an OpenScope MZ to LabVIEW. To do so, I will be walking you through some example VIs that I made. These examples allow you to access the oscilloscope and Wavegen/DC power supply functions of the OpenScope as well as the GPIO pins and the
The DueProLogic makes programmable logic easy with an all inclusive development platform. It includes an Altera Cyclone IV FPGA, on board programming, four megabit configuration flash, and an SD connector for add on memory. You can create your HDL code, program it into the flash and interact with the hardware via a Windows PC. This
