Time for something a little more advanced. Direct Port Manipulation. Normally when using Arduino software, the actual logic behind changing the values in pins is abstracted away with digitalRead and digitalWrite. Now, for most people that’s just fine. But it has some limitations. For one, it is a little slower than might be practical for …

This circuit will take a light reading then display a number between zero and 99. Step 1: Parts you will need Major Components in Project To make the 0-99 LED display you will need… ~ photo resister ~ Arduino ~ 9 different wires ~ 2 seven segment led displays ~ bread board ~ staples ~ …
We’re going to show how to wire up and control an Ikea DIODER LED strip with an arduino, using a 16X PWM LED Fader board as an intermediary. The 16X PWM board is basically a bunch of mosfets under PWM control (switches that turn on and off really fast) that can be used to mix different levels of the …

This instrcutable will show you how to hook up LEDs to show a face of a dice when a pushbutton is pressed. Step 1: Supplies For this project you will need to following: 11 long jumper wires 7 short jumper wires 7 LEDs 1 breadboard …
We are a generation that love sound and light – can’t do without them really. Our most preferred time of day is night, or what we would call evening. We are particularly well acquainted with technology; doesn’t hurt these days. Our prerequisite for everything is that it be ‘cool’. Put it all together and in …
The Phenakistoscope is an early optical illusion device that uses static images to create the illusion of motion through the principle of persistence of vision. It is regarded as one of the first forms of moving media entertainment that paved the way for the motion picture industry. We are not sure how big is the …
