[B. Aswinth Raj] wanted to control a VLC player with hand gestures. He turned to two common ultrasonic sensors and Python to do the job. There is also, of course, an Arduino. You can see a video ...

[Rootsaid] wanted to do the same and discovered that the PAJ7620 is an easy way to read hand gestures. The little sensor has a serial ... If you have an Arduino that can act as a keyboard for ...

These sensors only have three pins, making them easy to wire up and code. You can follow this Random Nerd Tutorials guide to get started with your Arduino motion sensors, but there are plenty of ...

A new gesture controlled robotic arm has been created using a little Arduino hardware together with a Microsoft Kinect sensor the skills of a team of makers. Details and instructions on how the ...

Thankfully, there's an Arduino project to help you out with that — this gesture-controlled system for VLC. It features two ultrasonic sensors mounted on your computer's display monitor (much ...

Makers and developers looking for a motion sensor Arduino Shield, are sure to be interested in this new ICU-Duino which has been created by Patrick Thomas Mitchell based in Ottawa, Canada.

While PIR sensors can be used with Arduino and other microcontroller boards, those best-suited for hobby use (the kind with a white golf ball-like semi-sphere lens, electrical connectors called ...

It’s a fairly simple project, too: just hook an Arduino Uno up to a motion sensor and an electronic switch called a relay, then plug in your fan, and you’re good to go. If that sounds ...

This voltage can be read by an Arduino digital input and then the Arduino can act upon it. The PIR Motion Sensor on the left is made by Parallax and sold by Radio Shack. The one on the right comes ...

Let me introduce another simple microcontroller-based do-it-yourself circuit that detects motion and excites ... The code is an Arduino project for the Digispark Attiny85 to turn on a light source ...
