5-volt USB Breakout board

I actually made this back in February (you can see the date etched next to my initials on the board), and never got around to posting about it.   It’s a super simple breakout footprint for a USB mini type-B port.  I wanted to make a really simple way to power my breadboard, and since my […]

[Gabor] reports about a simple project with this video to follow. (low down the volume before pressing “play”) initially i have planned to realize the art project i was writing in my previous post about, in C++ Open Frameworks. Since I had some trouble though getting the range finder data into OF i have settled […]

(Really) Cheap RFID door opener

[Ethan Zonca] explain is final project using Arduino, RFID, and an old PC. Well, the school year is over, so I thought I’d post up some information about my (extremely cheap and junky-looking but functional) door opener. The door handle is turned by one 24v globe motor (which have encoders that I’m sadly not using […]

Connection XBee Series 2 (AKA ZB Pro/ZNet) to an arduino

not-a-rocket-surgeon-style step-by-step Xbee Tutorial. Just to save some time if you lost your mind. My goal was to have two xbee series 2 modules communicate to each other in a two way configuration.  I found the the various instructions on the internets to be confusing and hard to follow (but then again, I am no […]

XBees, Arduinos, Serial Data

Some update (and wireless inhancement) of the arduino+php+lcd project of [justin] from [brockenCityLab] I made some huge progress over the last week or so on this ongoing Arduino / LCD project — it’s finally gone wireless! With some more silly mistakes behind me, I’m finally getting a better handle on how to break down the […]

DIY Arduino Helicopter with Obstacle Avoidance

Here’s another neat Arduino helicopter project featuring four infrared sensors and one ultrasonic sensor for obstacle avoidance.  We’ve seen an Arduino powered helicopter with four rotors and even one with six rotors too.  This quadcopter, however, features superb stability and obstacle avoidance.  It’s precise distance sensing makes this four rotor drone ideal for indoor flights.

An excellent Eagle Course

I spent this Saturday at a free CadSoft Eagle course for Arduino users which had been organised by Tinker London and Farnell’s Element14. Over twenty of us crammed into a well-equipped course room at the Cavendish Conference Centre. The main presenter was Tinker’s Peter Knight. Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino (the CEO and co-founder of Tinker) explained that […]
