Besides the Arduino’s serial monitor, we also used our DSO to measure pulse output from the water flow sensor. In that crude experiement, serial monitor displayed a rate of 56 Litre/hour (in lieu of ...

While PIR sensors can be used with Arduino and other microcontroller boards, those best-suited for hobby use are smart enough to perform simple tasks without any programming.

Ever thought of using touch sensors on your projects but didn’t because it would be too much work? [Paul Stoffregen] proves that it can be pretty easy if you use the CapSense library for Arduino.

Literally, ATtiny85 is a scaled-down version of the Atmega microcontroller on Arduino boards with just a few I/Os (five usable pins) that can listen to or talk to most sensors and transducers.

In the realm of DIY electronics, the Arduino UNO has emerged as a versatile platform for a myriad of projects. One such innovative project is the creation of a low-cost thermal camera, as ...
