This is a simple arduino project for a soil moisture sensor that will light up a LED at a certain moisture level. It uses Arduino Duemilanove microcontroller board. Two wires placed in the soil pot ...

In this experiment we are going to work with a sensor which is a resistor that depends on light. In a dark environment, the resistor will have a very high resistance. As photons (light) land on the ...

Despite their similar sizes and affordable prices, microcontrollers and single-board computers have vastly different specifications and use cases. After all, MCUs are designed for circuitry, ...

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

When it comes to performance, there's a world of difference between the Raspberry Pi and Arduino. The former, after all, is technically a fully functional computer that can run games, word processors, ...

As a biomedical equipment technician [Adam Outler] equipment needs to be in top working condition. The emergency room staff were complaining about erroneous noise on the electrocardiogram and it’s his ...

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 ...

Most of us are familiar with the Arduino Uno, a starting place for electronics projects since 2010. But what if the Arduino Uno was released in 1980? You’d probably get something like [ElectroBoy]’s ...

Arduino enthusiasts interested in learning more about how they can use the Arduino Cloud to monitor their projects directly from their phone might be interested in a new article published to the ...
