Harsh new rules at work getting you down? Overtime sucking the life out of you? Or maybe things are great, either way now you can show your co-workers and management exactly how you feel about your job without a single meeting, memo, or team bonding exercise. This is the Quality of Life Meter. Boss take …
I found a pressure sensor matrix that we could adapt to a pressure sensor patch on the stomach of the women in labor on this webpage (see below). It gives instructions how to build a pressure sensor by using two pieces of cloth and conductive thread! If I understand it right, you just have to …
Waking up to a buzzing alarm clock sucks. I’m one of those people who doesn’t like to wake up before the sun is out (or has been out for many hours). So what better way to make waking up fun than having a bubble party in bed! Using an arduino and a commonly available bubble …

DESIGN OF A SMALL SCALE SMART HOME SYSTEM Gabriel Johnson and Chance Kelsoe INTRODUCTION Design of a smart home system with a LabView/Arduino interface In this project we made use of an Arduino Duemilanove and LabView to design an easy to use graphical interface to represent a control environment that every home owner could use. HIGH …

I wanted to have an easily programmable RGB light to toss into a Jack ‘O Lantern for Halloween. Who really wants a dull pumpkin in these days of pumpkin pimping madness. So I set to work building a pocket tin sized RGB lamp that could be reused after Halloween for some other RGBing need. The …

Using this method, I’ll show you how you can access 5 (or even more) inputs through 1 Arduino pin. These buttons will only be read correctly if only one is pushed at any time though. As we go through it I’ll explain whatever background info you need to know, so as long as you can …
This sketch shows you how to read and calibrate the Esplora’s light sensor. Because light levels vary from one location to another, you need to calibrate the sensor for each location. To do this, you read the sensor for a few seconds, and save the highest and lowest readings as maximum and minimum. You’ll use …
After buying a Nanode (an Arduino-compatible board with ethernet built-in) last weekend, we’ve been trying to work it out by making a couple of simple examples, the ‘Binary Dice’ is the first one with input and outputs. A note, this code example is based on the one from the book Arduino: A Quick-Start Guide by Maik …
Persistence of vision is an optical illusion, it works on a simple phenomenon how our day to day television works. MY first pov was six months before with arduino uno and with motor. However it is best to have a small and portable device that can be carried anywhere and image can be seen without …
Chachka is born! Chachka is an Adafruit Trinket CLONE built from the ATtiny85 microcontroller. Because it is a current Adafruit product, it has a training guide and its own support forum and lots of sample code. All of this means that like an Uno clone, the Chachka will be well supported with firmware and libraries and …
