The soil moisture sensor module , built around the LM393 comparator, gives an active-low (L) level output when the soil is dry (determined by a pre-setted threshold value). This digital output (wet ...

In this fun project an ultrasonic distance sensor is used to detect a “target” (i.e., a person, a cat, a burglar, etc.). The Arduino illuminates (blasts) the target using an inexpensive laser diode ...

If you’re interested in building your own laser sky effect generator, you’ll need a few key components: an Arduino Uno, a laser module, mirrors, motors to spin the mirrors, a photoresistor, an ...

The Pressure Sensor Module incorporates a material called Velostat with the Arduino. This material adds more resistance when more pressure is applied to the material. This module also uses the RGB LED ...

4. Connect the breadboard rails to Arduino GND and +5V, and then check that your setup matches that of Figure 10-3. Mounting the Laser. For this project, I’ve attached the servos to a pan-and ...

The Arduino Sensor Kit comes as a standalone kit for only €23.00 or $23.00, or can be purchased with the Arduino UNO Rev3 board as a great value bundle for €38.70 or $38.70.

Lasers are some of the coolest devices around. We can use them to cut things, create laser light shows, and also as a rangefinder.[Ignas] wrote in to tell us about [Berryjam’s] AMAZING write-… ...
