GPS module (uBlox Neo 6M) Interfacing with AVR Microcontroller Atmega16/32
Posted on: 18 Oct 2021
GPS modules are widely used in electronics applications to track the location based on longitude and latitude coordinates. Vehicle tracking system, GPS Clock, Accident Detection Alert System, traffic navigation, surveillance system etc. are few of the examples where GPS functionality is essential. GPS provides Altitude, Latitude, Longitude, UTC time and many other information about the particular location, which are taken from […]
Understanding Fuse Bits in ATmega328P to Enhance Arduino Programming Efficiency
Posted on: 15 Oct 2021
In this tutorial, we are going to talk about fuses. Back when I was in college and learning about all the cool things in electronics, I heard the term fuse in AVR for the first time, my initial thought on the topic was, oh! there is something inside the AVR that will blow if I did […]
STONE HMI + STM32 + Display module control temperature alarm
Posted on: 06 Oct 2021
Project Introduction Temperature is an important indicator of the environment and is used as a control parameter in many projects. The temperature alarm can be used for smart home appliances or environmental indicators of temperature measurement, can be used for practical electronic temperature alarm, such as the measurement of computer case temperature, but also for […]
Cardboard Dragon Robot
Posted on: 18 Jul 2021
Who doesn’t love dragons? I know I do. I wanted to challenge myself with this project and build it all out of cardboard practicing some techniques I recently learned, and control it using a small thumbstick controller. Supplies: For this build, you will need: -3 Micro Servos. I used this size to keep the whole […]
Battery Powered Simple Waste Auditing Data Logger ♻️
Posted on: 08 Jul 2021
I wanted a way to keep track of how much waste I was generating just to be more environmentally conscious. So I created this project as an automated way to help keep track of waste accumulation through fullness measurements while also taking pictures of the objects thrown away. To achieve this, I use the HC-SR04 […]
Mandelbrot Set on Pi Pico / ILI9341
Posted on: 06 Jul 2021
Mandelbrot Set is IMHO the most famous fractal. Read here for additional info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_set This project was inspired by https://hackaday.io/project/177884-mandelbrot-on-p… I reused most of the original code, but decided to implement it with 2.8″ ILI9341 SPI tft using Pico micropython driver from https://github.com/jeffmer/micropython-ili9341. This is my first project with Pi Pico and micropython. Step 1: Set Up… I assume […]
Connecting to Microcontroller With Pyserial Library – Python
Posted on: 05 Jul 2021
Hi, In this instructable, we’ll see how to use the Pyserial library in Python in order to make a serial connection via a COM Port (in our example COM3) and receive the temperature and humidity values from an MSP430 Microcontroller which is programmed to obtain data from a DHT11 sensor. In addition to this, we’ll […]
Open Source Ventilator Alternative
Posted on: 04 Jul 2021
Access to medical devices is unequal across the globe, and the COVID-19 pandemic has underscored this fact. During the pandemic the global shortage of ventilators has been especially notable. Access to mechanical ventilation in Low and Middle Income Countries is inadequate. South Sudan, for example, possesses four ventilators in total. Across 84 healthcare facilities in […]
Automatic Water Barrel Filler
Posted on: 03 Jul 2021
A relative asked me if I could create something that automates refilling a water barrel used for watering a small garden greenhouse. They didn’t want to plug in a pump every few hours only to have turn it off again ten minutes later when it has filled up again. So I’ve scavenged some stuff that […]
Decoder / Electronic Quiz Game 2.0
Posted on: 02 Jul 2021
Some time ago I presented the Electronic Quiz I made when I was a kid. It can be used to solve quiz sheets. The big drawback is, that each number is hard-wired to one letter so there are 26 fix combinations. Those are fast to memorise, even more so if you are a kid. So I came up […]
