Sensing Networks

Urban Sensing Networks using Arduino

Leave a Comment / Using Arduino / By

Often government data sets available to us online are taken from major nearby metropolitan areas or infrastructural centers. With an easy to follow introduction to new softwares and technologies the “urban sensor kit” allows anyone to obtain location specific information and share that information with a growing community of designers, researchers, and many others. This …

Momentary Switch as Digital Sensor

Momentary Switch as Digital Sensor Using Arduino

Leave a Comment / Using Arduino / By

In many cases switches are just switches. They directly control the flow of electricity to an appliance, flashlight or mains-voltage lamp. An example of this is the switch on the wall in your living room. In many cases nowadays however, switches are digital sensors, meaning that instead of directly controlling a high-powered device, they are …

Personal Identity Augmentation Device

The iDial – Critical Making Personal Identity Augmentation Device Using Arduino

Leave a Comment / Using Arduino / By

In this critical making project, we will be making a personal iDial, which will give you, the wearer, the ability to reflect on your personal identity in a private space, and then spatially and temporally dislocate your ‘private self’ into public conversation! You might be thinking, ‘this device looks ridiculous’. Well, that’s the point. This …
