Hello friends!! I am here to show you a DC wattmeter which can be made easily by using Arduino nano. One of the main problems I was facing as an electronics hobbyist is to know the amount of current and voltage applied across the charging circuits I made. I thought of buying one meter…
Feeling fidgety or on edge while working from home? Don’t have a pet to torment play with? Pet, poke, and smoosh this office companion instead! See what makes it purr or lash out 😼. CIRCUIT Loomia Mini Pressure Matrix Loomia Serpentine Bus Arduino Nano Every with header pins and micro USB cable Vibration…
During this pandemic, it has become extremely important to make sure that we take all the necessary steps to keep this coronavirus away from us. Since the vaccines are still under development, the only way to stop the virus is to kill it. The only proven method to kill most of the viruses and…
This project is an Arduino-based alarm to monitor if the computer is working. In case the computer freezes, it will emit a warning sound signal. The project is composed from two parts: a program which runs on the computer, and an Arduino connected in an USB port. The computer programs sends a predefined character…
This is a mini project I made for fun. It was done at the beginning of this year and I thought I should share the story behind the making of this. It’s a cactus that tweet when it needs water :P. The idea started as an inspired project. I was watching a ted talk…
I wanted to make a quirky project using some 8×8 matrix LEDs and some ultrasonic sensors… something different from what other people usually make with ultrasonics – and I wanted it to be fun and playful. So I created what I call UltrasonicEyes – a fun project that you sit somewhere near where people move around…
While we are challenged to continue our work remotely as protection layer in the current situation we should avoid get in contact with others until the situation will be under control. The main idea is to build a thermal camera detector that can be easily deployed outside your house /lab /office /shuttle… so you…
If the weather is anything but clear and sunny, the appropriate sun-obscuring weather actor, be it clouds, more clouds, rain, or lightning will swing into place, blocking out the blue sky in layers, just like real life. There’s a total of five weather-serving servos, and they’re all controlled by an Arduino Nano through a…
Small wood lathes don’t typically come with an RPM readout, so after obtaining such a machine several months ago, engineer Zach — also known as ‘byte sized’ — decided to build his own custom display. The device uses a Nano for control, along with a Hall effect sensor to pick up on four magnets attached to the…
You’ve got your design ready to go, you know you have the right components… but where exactly did you place that particular resistor? With the Resys drawer system by Lynlimer, you no longer have to wonder — just type in the needed value and the proper drawer lights up automatically. The device is based on…
Tetris was as a perfect complement to Nintendo’s original Game Boy when it came out in 1989, and now “Copper Dragon” has been able to fit an entire system for it — sans monitor or speakers — inside of a faux NES controller. Impressively, this feat was accomplished with an Arduino Nano and a few passive components,…
When you get a notification on your smartphone, more often than not, you’re doing something more pressing. You then silence the alarm, and perhaps forget about it. Nick Bild, however, has created a pair of smart glasses that take a new “look” at things by instead giving you a notification when you’re staring at an…
