Introduction If you completed any of the buzzer projects, you will know by now that there is much fun to be had in making the Arduino create noises. The only issue you might have had is with the quality of the sound. Since MIDI is a serial protocol and the Arduino can generate messages on …
This example demonstrates string-based communication from the Arduino board to the computer using a call-and-response (handshaking) method. The sketch sends an ASCII string on startup and repeats that until it gets a serial response from the computer. Then it sends three sensor values as ASCII-encoded numbers, separated by commas and terminated by a linefeed and …

An if statement allows you to choose between two discrete options, TRUE or FALSE. When there are more than two options, you can use multiple if statements, or you can use the switch statement. Switch allows you to choose between several discrete options. This tutorial shows you how to use it to switch between four desired states …
UPDATE: Please see Addendum 2 at the end of this article for an Excel automatic logging implementation. There are several good articles on Instructables about building your own Arduino. Depending on your horde of electrical parts, you may be able to build an Arduino clone for as little as $3. I recently built two: one on …
Arduino is a great platform. No question. But what if I told you that you could take your entire board and compact it into tiny package. And I mean really small. The chip in the picture is an ATTiny84, and that is the big version. So if your project only needs a few pins and …

The Just-For-Fun Sun-tracker using the Arduino and two servos. This device, along the lines of the most useless toy, is not so much for function as it is for fun. But as with many things, you can’t spell function without fun! This could easily be modified to rotate solar …
Here’s a small, quick project you can do with an arduino, the EMF Detector! Step 1: Circut All you need for this project is 10- 330 ohm resistors 10- LED’s 1-3.3m resistor 1-Solid core wire (this will serve as the probe) breadboard, wires, battery & connector for arduino to make it portable Step 2: Hooking …
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 …
This is a step-by-step on how to connect Arduino to OpenFrameworks using Spacebrew. More specifically our project focuses on the awesomeness of Capacitive Sensing to alter OF projections to create an awesome tactile experience! What the process will involve: Arduino -> Processing -> SpaceBrew -> OpenFrameworks What you will need: Software: Arduino Processing OpenFrameworks Capsense Library for …
