Arduino color sorter project demonstrate the operations of sorting machines that are commonly used by industries. This project features an Arduino board and a color sensor that able to organize ...

[Joel] dug up this hack that he pulled off over ten years ago. It’s inspired by the Nintendo PowerGlove, and uses flex sensors to react to movements of your fingers. The interesting thing is, he built ...

An Arduino is a microcontroller — a single board designed to control something and perform a specific task. Unlike a ...

A common hacker upgrade to an espresso machine is to improve stability and performance with a better temperature controller, but [Schematix]’s Smart Coffee project doesn’t stop there. It entirely ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. If you're looking to take on a new project with your Arduino, perhaps creating a smart trash can could be in the cards. Yes, it might sound ...

A Raspberry Pi home automation project enables controlling lights, sensors, and smart devices via open-source software, turning any house into a smart home.

An Arduino can be used to test the life of any battery with less than 5 volts, Boxall says. So, for a quick way to see how much juice your AAA, AA, C, or D batteries have left, build this ...

Ever wish your home or office had airplane-style occupancy lights so you know when the toilet is in use? Some crafty hackers in Tokyo made this dream into a reality. Their attractive setup ...

This post is a refresh on the basics of reading values from a flex sensor… A flex sensor, also called a bend sensor, can be used to detect a deflection by measuring the change in resistance that ...

This project is to prototype a set of self-powered (such as piezoelectric, thermostat, solar, etc) embedded sensor systems for pervasive computing. A tangible exam is a body-temperature powered motion ...
