This instructable will show you how to create a multifunction platform with a thermometer, chronograph (count up timer), count down timer, and light display. It is also intended to be a platform for other analog sensors or any other functions you can think of.

This a guide for an Arduino version, but I am working on a mini ATtiny84 version. Once I get that working, I will post another Instructable on how to make it. I’m sure you could make this same thermometer with an LM35 also, if that’s what you have, and you probably won’t have to modify …
I was looking at all those swoopy-zoomy internet connected and controllable thermostats. “Self,” I told myself, “we should make one of those.” He didn’t seem all that excited about that – I mean, what do we know about hardware, firmware, electronics or HVAC? Well, now’s as good as any to figure it out. So without …
This sketch shows you how to read the Esplora’s temperature sensor. You can read the temperature sensor in Farhenheit or Celsius. Circuit Only your Arduino Esplora is needed for this example. Connect the Esplora to your computer with a USB cable and open the Arduino’s Serial Monitor. Temperature to send data to your computer from …
Data analysis coming soon! My school is kind of strange. We don’t have a cafeteria, but we do have a four week course on “The Simpsons.” We don’t have a jungle-gym on the elementary playground, but we do have a half-buried firetruck. We don’t have a football team, but we do have a bee-keeping club. …
Lab Experiments involving the Heat Equation are usually one-dimensional exercises involving a copper pipe and a half-dozen thermocouples. But with DS18B20 “One-Wire” thermometer chips and an Arduino, it’s possible to measure hundreds of temperature values simultaneously. Here’s what my students Daniel Lund and Lawrence Lechuga and I came up with for 2-D temperature measurements. We began by …

I have been researching a project which will help me with my understanding of electronics, networking, and programming. I decided to build an online thermometer which could be used in applications that need temperature monitoring. I currently work in a lab environment where I test, troubleshoot, and calibrate equipment which is installed in nuclear power plants …
I have loved making projects with Arduinos, but at $30 a piece your projects can get expensive. So I want to show you how you can make your own Arduino from scratch and save money doing it. Make your own Arduino for around $8. For this instructable I show you how to make one on …
As per an assignment in my digital multi-media class, I’ve combined two Arduino-related tutorials into a functional object! The result is a pair of infinity mirrors that flash red and blue depending on minute fluctuations in ambient temperature. This is my first experience with Arduino, and my first attempt at building an electronic device from …

Another project I’m working on required a good timer, but the more I read about Arduino, I realized that I couldn’t make an accurate timer using an Arduino that was already devoted to other tasks. The Arduino will always lose time if you perform other tasks. The solution was a Real Time Clock module that keeps perfect …
