One of the limitations of the small 8 bit microcontrollers like the Atmel ATMega family adopted by the Arduino board, is the reduced number of I/O ports. Among the main advantages of these ...

Assume that you are moving towards a complex microcontroller project bundled with blinkers, beepers, and a display panel. To link a standard 16×2 LCD directly with the microcontroller, for instance ...

This Arduino BASIC interpreter will make a really fun one-day project if you’ve already got the parts on hand. [Usmar A. Padow] put together an Arduino Uno, SD card, four line character LCD, and PS/2 ...

This one’s a bit abstract. Remember those LCD games that became quite popular sometime in the 1990’s? You know, the ones that had only one game, usually a character that could be moved back and forth ...

Working with multiple sensors on an Arduino can unlock richer, more interactive projects. By integrating motion, light, distance, and environmental readings, you can create systems that respond ...

The development team at Lite3DP has launched a micro 3D printer kit which is now available from $89 and allows you to build your very own mini resin 3D printer. Preorders are now available and ...

With just an Arduino board, a DHT11 sensor, and an I2C LCD, you can create a simple yet effective weather station at home. This beginner-friendly project displays real-time temperature and humidity ...
