In this article I will add some simple Arduino LED projects starting with basic ones like how to turn on an LED, blinking, and more. Every step will have the code, the schematic, photos of the project ...

The Arduino has long been a staple of the maker community. Longer than 3D printing has been as popular as it is, in fact. So, ...

Today, we’re going to explore the uses of addressable LEDs. Addressable LED is an easy way to add complex lighting effects to any project. Each addressable LED has an integrated driver that allows you ...

In the last installment of The GeekDad Arduino Guide, I introduced you to the Arduino hardware and why it is so cool. Now, let’s start actually using an Arduino. How do you get started? Well, first ...

If you've done some Arduino tinkering and wondered how you could incorporate the Kinect-or the other way around-then this book is for you. The authors of Arduino and Kinect Projects will show you how ...

Normally, when a project calls for addressable LEDs, we just throw a strip of WS2812s and an Arduino together, cobble together some code from the examples in the FastLED library, and call it a day. We ...

As if you already weren’t agonizing over whether or not you should build your own arcade cabinet, add this one to the list of compelling reasons why you should dedicate an unreasonable amount of ...

So you've already outgrown Arduino's most beginner-friendly board, the Uno, and are looking to move on to bigger, more exciting projects. In that case, the Nano family might just be what you need.

Most of us have an 8x8 LED matrix from one of our Arduino kits. What can we do with them? This module investigates how to use these interesting devices. Along the way, we describe a fun electronics ...
