USING RFID FOR A DIY KEEPSAKE BOX
– April 11, 2014
Mike Buss used an Arduino Duemilanove, Parallax RFID reader, micro servo, and piezo electric speaker to make a personalized, lockable keepsake box for his girlfriend’s birthday: Read the rest of this entry »
SEE WHAT YOUR ARDUINO IS THINKING WITH MICROVIEW
– April 10, 2014
As some of you have already noticed on our social channels, we are thrilled to announce a new partner in the Arduino at Heart Program: MicroView, the first chip-sized Arduino compatible that lets you see what your Arduino is thinking using an OLED display.
Microview, by Geek Ammo, is versatile as it meets the needs of beginners and experts alike. Read the rest of this entry »
TEACH KIDS HOW COLORS ARE MADE WITH THE COLOR MACHINE
– April 9, 2014
The Color Machine (La macchina dei colori, in Italian language) is a tool to teach children about the use and the operation of RGB color coding, which is used in all digital devices (TVs, smartphones, computers, etc.). It was created withArduino Mega by an italian duo composed by Fabio Ghidini and Stefano Guerrini:
Using 3 knobs you can increase the percentages of red, green and blue separately, and the LED strip at the top of the machine lights up consistently with the color mix choosen. Read the rest of this entry »
HOW TO MONITOR A DOMESTIC PHOTOVOLTAIC PLANT WITH ARDUINO
– April 8, 2014
ArdaSol is the name of a project for a solar energy monitoring system based on Arduino Mega and UNO, made by Heinz Pieren. It’s a system built to monitor energy production and consumption of a domestic photovoltaic plant:
The ArdaSol Energy Monitoring System has 3 devices:- ArdaSol Display based on a Arduino Mega Board
The master of the system, it collects the data from the two other ArdaSol devices, shows the data on the display, stores it on a SD card and sends it to a server in the internet.- ArdaSol Energy Monitor based on a Arduino Uno
Measures the consumption of the energy, shows energy values on local display and delivers it on request to the ArdaSol Display.- ArdaSol Remote PVI Interface based on a Arduino Uno
The photovoltaic inverter (PVI) has a RS485 interface, this is connected to ArdaSol Remote, which interacts as a gateway to ArdaSol Display. It converts the requests, coming with a radio signal to the PVI and vice versa.
SWIMMING MERMAID LED TAIL #ARDUINOMICROMONDAY
– April 7, 2014
Glimmer the Mermaid is an incredible project by Erin St. Blaine: it uses about 180 Adafruit Neopixels, an Arduino Micro to control them and silicone. To change animations and brightness she added a bluetooth module to connect it to an Android tablet:
ARDUINO UNO CONTROLLING A LEGO MINDSTORMS ELEVATOR
– April 3, 2014
NooTrix submitted us a 4-part tutorial to build a Lego Mindstorm Elevator controlled by an Arduino Uno:
The elevator is built using components from an old Lego Mindstorms RCX 1.5. For the control part, we use an Arduino Uno board instead of the obsolete Lego RCX brick. The motor and sensors are from Lego. The connection to motor is done using a set of transistors organized in a H-Bridge.
A ROCKET LAUNCHER RUNNING ON ARDUINO
– April 2, 2014
When chall2009 was a kid, he loved playing with Estes Rockets:
So I decided to get back into the hobby but using all of my maker skizzls. So here’s a really cool Arduino Rocket Launcher launching 3D Printed rockets from my MakerBot Rep2! Enjoy! Fully Open Source for anyone to make!
Full Assembly and Launch Instructions are on Instructables, Arduino code is onGithub and the 3d files for the rockets are downloadable from Thingiverse!
GROWING YOUR VEGGIES WITH A SMART GREENHOUSE CALLED MEG
– April 1, 2014
MEG is the world’s first social and automated greenhouse, part machine and part community, now on Kickstarter. Carlo D’Alesio and Piero Santoro, the designer duo based in Milan presented the prototype at Maker Faire Rome and also at a PopupMakers event last year.
MEG means Micro Experimental Growing system, runs on an Arduino MEGA 2560 which controls an automated “light engine,” water and nutrient tank, fans and sensors monitoring humidity, temperature, and pH. It’s smart because if you are not really good with growing plants, you can crowdsource parameters from other gardeners: your neighbour’s tomatoes won’t be more red than yours!
