Arduino Automatic Fish Feeder

“This instructable was created in fulfillment of the project requirement of the Makecourse at the University of South Florida (www.makecourse.com) This instructable is going to explain how to build an Arduino powered Automoatic Fish Feeder.”

Understanding IR protocol of Air Conditoner’s remotes

“I’ve been learning about IR protocols for quite some time now. How to send and receive IR signals. At this point, the only thing remaining is the IR protocol of AC remotes. Unlike traditional remotes of nearly all electronics …

Measurement Of RPM Of DC Motor Using Arduino And IR LED

“What is our requirement? Here we want to measure the rpm of DC motor. So we have to measure how many times a particular point on the rotor undergoes a full rotation within a minute. So we have to use …

Turn any IR remote control to a wireless control ON/OFF switch

“While building a Toastmaster timer, I needed a switch to act as a Start/Stop switch. I first built it with a long flexible coax cable, but as time went on, it turned out to be impracticable: it could be …

Arduino based mood lamp with IR remote control

“This is a simple and cool moodlight project with IR remote controller that I’ve made starting from a salvaged lens out of a scan bed of an old HP scanner. This lens is capable to redirect a puntiform light …

CARDBIRD - The cardboard robotic arm

“Build your own cardboard robotic arm in 2 hours. Let´s Rock´n´Roll!”

Tote Quadruped Robot

“Tote is a small (fits inside your palm), four-legged, walking robot, with three degrees of freedom per leg, Arduino for its brains and controlled either with a TV remote, or by additional electronics added on top of it. It is …

Controlling an Arduino Turret With IR Remote

“In a previous instructable, we covered making an Auto-Turret with a Pixy. That was great for tracking objects of a certain color and firing on them. What if you want to control it manually? There are several options, such as …

DIY IR Remote Tester using TSOP1738

“Home made remote tester using TSOP1738. This circuit helps to test the each button of the remote. When you press a button the led in the circuit blinks.”

Remote Controlled Robot Using Arduino

“L293D is a dual H-bridge motor driver integrated circuit (IC). Motor drivers act as current amplifiers since they take a low-current control signal and provide a higher-current signal. This higher current signal is used to drive the motors. L293D contains …
