[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

A capacitive sensing evaluation kit from Cypress Semiconductor is being made available free to design engineers by distributor Future Electronics on its ‘My Board Club’ website. The CY3280-MBR3 ...

This project is a simple modification of the LightGauge project. Instead of measuring light, we measure the ambient voltage field on pin A5 and use it to detect if someone is too close to our Arduino.

Designed by Nova Radio Labs in the US, the Novaduino Environmental Sensor Kit is an Arduino-programmable air quality and ...

An Arduino is a microcontroller — a single board designed to control something and perform a specific task. Unlike a Raspberry Pi, you won't find anything resembling an operating system here; instead, ...

Arduino has announced the launch of its Oplà IoT Kit, described as an open programmable IoT platform. It aims to simplify the building of custom IoT devices, with support for cryptographic control ...

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 ...

Makers, developers and hobbyists that are interested in making projects involving muscles and reactions from muscles may find these new Arduino MyoWare muscle sensors a great addition to their project ...

[Dustin Andrews] built this add-on board which works as a proximity sensor. He wanted a standalone sensor for his Arduino projects which would use a single pin as a trigger. This lets him alert the ...
