My last post was about the usage of a digital compass. The topic of that post was on the usage of the compass together with an Arduino to obtain the values of the components of the magnetic field vector measured by the sensor. The values obtaine...
Hello, my name is Brandon Gilligan. I work for the website RFInspireD, which is a data collection database. Commonly used for RFID or barcodes, It can be used for lot's of different data collection including the weather. I did this project to show of...
During the Enchanted Objects design challenge I learnt quite a few things about the Arduino Yún, I thought I'd summarise and share them here. My posts in this challenge were all themed with a running story hence the strange titles. Introduct...
Hey there,I know that this section is dedicated to the Arduino board, but since there's no blog section for the ESP8266 I've decided to post it here.A few weeks ago I've posted on my blog a tutorial where I built a web server with an ESP8266.There's ...
This time I'm going to introduce the usage of a kind of magnetic sensors called digital magnetoresistive sensors. Magnetoresistive sensors are based on a property of several materials called magnetoresistance, consisting in the variation of their ele...
Hello mates. Here I come again...I really continue figuring out how to reach a very mall and continous speed of rotation, with a very high precission.What I want to make is a mount to put on a camera and shoot photos of the night skies. My origi...
The Arduino Yun is a 2 part device, half a conventional Arduino micro controller and half an embedded Linux using OpenWRT/Linino with Ethernet and Wifi connectivity. Because there is an operating system as well as application code on the Linux s...
AbstractAs most of you know, I am doing a quadcopter from scratch project where I make almost everything from scratch. In doing so, I had to understand the dynamics behind the software/firmware and in order to explain the quadcopter, I can start by e...
And the winner was...Craig Terris. Here is is receiving his Arduino starter kit from Zac Colley, very kindly supplied by Element14! We drew the name from a hat, an actual hat; a room full of computer nerds and we fell back on good old tradition! Than...
I just got this come through to my email, so I thought I would share it with you all it is short notice, Im going so if your in Ontario and go, ill see you there Regards Peter Atmel Tech on Tour is coming to Ontario in Aprilhttp:/...
It's a great success so far with plenty of people turning up and with a nice mix of knowledge. We have some interesting projects on the go, will write these up soon.here's some pictures!
I've been playing with the GSM shield and the sms functions. As some of you may remember a while ago I was having problems with my mega and the shield. paulellison helped me out considerably with identifying problems with the mega and the shield usin...
I was working on a project for my UNO that would randomly fade in and out the RGB and make different colors.. After troubleshooting.. I find that the green portion of the RGB LED is not working.. I tested it with a pretty well used 3.3 v watch batter...
