This circuit is not the very latest in robotics, but it may be of interest to those of you involved in making little robots using popular and inexpensive components. The proposed idea is a ...

You can read the state of a button using Arduino and a few lines of code. The actual state is shown in the Serial Monitor window as 0 or 1, 0 meaning the button is not pressed and 1 that the button is ...

Simply step on the giant lighted arcade button, and the equally giant NEMA-23 stepper motor moves a 3D-printed turntable inside the bucket with the help of an Arduino Nano.

While you hopefully don't need one-button access to 911, a desk-mounted panic button is undoubtedly cool, and it makes for a great DIY Arduino project. You'll need a prepaid SIM card, an Arduino, a ...

This means that the servos stops and start very suddenly, moving as fast as they can between positions. In this video I'm going to show you two lines of very simple code to make things smoother.

My daughter likes buttons. She's learning letters. I was bored over winter break and had these parts laying around... so I built her a "Button Box" based around an Arduino. Open source, hackable ...

There is no question that steering wheel mounted controls are super convenient. Reaching all the way over to the dashboard to change a radio station is so 1990’s. An ever-increasing percentage of new ...

Premier space exploration disaster simulator, Kerbal Space Program, is fun to play with regular controls, but it can be improved with this DIY build that lets you launch ships with a giant red button.

Pretty much every project I've done just lately has required me to test out some servos and experiment with their positions before they go into the assembly. I usually make a quick servo tester on a ...

Makers, hobbyists and electronics enthusiasts looking for a project to keep them busy this weekend may be interested in a new DIY Arduino arcade game project which uses LEGO bricks and Arduino ...
