In this project we see how to make a lamp that can change its colour according to the environment, using the Arduino Nano microcontroller. We must therefore create an electronic circuit that takes a color as input and outputs the relative light. The most important material in this project is the TCS34725 RGB sensor (another…
Fishmograph allows to precisely monitor earthquakes involving our house using the D7S sensor, sending us an email notification for every event detected, allowing us to take people and things to safety. Italy is one of the Mediterranean countries with the highest seismic risk and this very unfavourable record is due to its geographic…
Let’s discover how to load the bootloader on our IoT board, so to prepare it for the usage. You learned about Antennino when reading the first part of this article, in which we presented the project and described the hardware, in detail. Let’s resume the discussion from where we stopped, that is to…
