In this tutorial we will learn how to setup an IR remote for an Arduino. IR remotes can be used in your projects for all kinds of things. You can use an IR remote to turn on and off a device, LED, relay, or even use it to steer an Arduino robot or automated vehicle. […]
In this basic tutorial we will learn how to setup a keypad on an Arduino. Keypads can be used to control access to things, such as unlocking a door or a safe. Keypads can be added to a myriad of Arduino projects, for learning, or for real world projects. In addition to controlling access to […]
As I continue on with my journey to build an Astromech, we’ll go down several paths. We have to paint the dome panels (the top ones are called pie panels), build the frame, mount the dome, and start on the electronics which includes some custom programming. I am going to go through things in order […]
Building R2-D2 has been a lifelong dream of mine. It’s been on the playbook and my backlog of projects for many years. Quite frankly, there are a few simple reasons that I haven’t gotten to this project until now. It’s not a short project. It’s expensive. It’s complicated. Let’s break those down! Building R2-D2 is […]
In this project tutorial we’re going to build a super easy Arduino dice circuit. It’s a great learning project and one of the first project a lot of people new to the Arduinos or micro-controllers in general like to do because it is simple to understand. We’ve added a neat twist to our dice circuit […]
When I got my first Arduino the first thing I thought was “Wow! I’d love to be able to control this thing from a web page!”, but of our course I didn’t have an Ethernet shield. So recently I decided to grab a shield from Amazon and see what I could do. First things first […]
Having your Arduino aware of temperature and humidity adds some really neat real world use cases for your Arduino projects, so in this tutorial we will focus on using Arduino temperature sensors in our projects! Specifically we will focus on the Adafruit DHT11 and DHT22 temerature and humidity sensors. Since we will be building off […]
One of the first projects many people like to do with an Arduino is wiring up an LCD display and programming it. This is because LCD screens have so many applications in the real world. You can display information to the user, error and diagnostic codes, and even fun little animations. Creating a game on […]
In this project we’re going to put together a simple Arduino train crossing! While practically this project is simply to help you learn how to use buttons, LEDs, and servos in your Arduino project, this train crossing (also called a level crossing) project could be adapted to model train sets with very little work. In […]
One of the very first projects almost all people do when they get an Arduino is to make the traffic light project. It’s an incredibly simple project but it teaches you some of the most relevant fundamentals of the Arduino. We’re going to make the Arduino traffic light project in this tutorial, step by step […]
