Arduino-l3dgecomm – Integrating L3DGEWorld and Arduino

L3DGEWorld is a tool for monitoring and interacting with networks and computer systems. Within a 3D world, entities bounce, spin, scale and otherwise change. These entities all represent an entity in another context – be it a server, phone, router or other monitorable device. The visual transformations represent various characteristics of these entities, such as packets …

Momentary Switch as Digital Sensor

Momentary Switch as Digital Sensor Using Arduino

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 …

Tiich System Prototype Final Report

Tiich System – Prototype Final Report Using Arduino

Introduction: Our main goal with the Tiich system is to design a teaching aid/tool which would replace the conventional whiteboard in a classroom environment. We want our system to be used as an electronic based white board, having all the written information easily be saved and submitted to all the students in the classroom. We also …

motion tracking with 2 PIR sensors

Arduino – (Very) Basic motion tracking with 2 PIR sensors

Took me a little while to get started but I’ve managed to wire 2 PIR infrared sensors with an Arduino to sense motion either on the left or on the right side. The result will trigger an LED to represent each PIR sensor then I also added in a servo to be controlled – so it turns left when triggered by the left sensor …

Turn a pencil drawing into a capacitive sensor

Turn a pencil drawing into a capacitive sensor for Arduino

Did you know?  You can make pencil drawings reactive to touch for use with your projects!  It’s really easy, and gives you a lot of flexibility in making interfaces for whatever microcontroller project you’re making.  I put this together as part of my UnoJoy project, where we’re using the Arduino as a platform from which …

Analog Sensors

Analog Sensors using arduino

Analog sensors produce an analog (continuous) voltage that typically varies from 0 to 5 volts. They have three wires – ground, power, and signal (typically red, black, and white, respectively). Examples shown below include: Potentiometers Proximity Accelerometers Ribbon Bend Pressure Light Temperature Sound Multi-touch Touch Other Potentiometers Potentiometers typically measure rotation or linear travel, and …
