AVR based remote controlled fan regulator

This project is from Extreme Electronics that describes an AVR-based (Atmega8) remotely controlled fan regulator. The control commands are received through a DVD player remote control. With three buttons on the remote control, you can turn the fan On and Off and also conotrol the speed. You can also purchase the PCB for this project […]

$1.50 Arduino TV Annoyer!! (Turns TVs on when you want them off) using microcontroller

Hey Arduino fans! Here is an ‘ible for making a device that turns TVs on when you want them off, and off then you want them on! If you hide it in something inconspicuous, it would make a great April Fools joke or gag gift. And the best part is that the total parts cost

Laser Tripwire 1

Laser Tripwire takes a Photo, Uploads it to Twitter

This instructable will show you how to construct a laser tripwire that can twitter and grab an image from a webcam, as well as execute any command you can put in a bash script. This instructable is actually quite simple and is even suitable as a beginner arduino project. It requires a GNU/linux (or possibly Mac) operating

Build your own cheap multi function wireless camera controller using Microcontroller AVR ATMega8

Build your own (cheap!) multi-function wireless camera controller using Microcontroller AVR ATMega8

Introduction Ever fancied building your own camera controller? IMPORTANT NOTE: Capacitors for the MAX619 are 470n or 0.47u.  The schematic is correct, but the component list was wrong – updated. This is an entry into the Digital Days competition so if you find it useful, please rate/vote/comment favourably!  If you reallly like it and are a stumbler,

An attempt to show grayscale images on an LED dot matrix display with software PWM using PIC16F877A

Introduction: This is just a time pass hobby project, I am trying to display some pictures (JPEG/PNG/BMP etc) on my 8×8 led dotmatrix display.  You can see photos of my 8×8 led dotmatrix display showing some grayscale pictures. The main thing which you may notice is that the brightness of each led depends on the

AVR based monochrome signal generation for a PAL TV using atmega16 micrcontroller

AVR based monochrome signal generation for a PAL TV using atmega16 micrcontroller

Introduction: I have learned some thing about TV in one of my B.tech semester but I forgot most of them. Now I refreshed a few basics and tried to implement a monochrome PAL TV signal generator using an AVR micrcontroller. I was using PIC earlier but later I jumped to AVR because I loves the
