Who does not want to have stunning lamp which can display animations and sync with other lamps in the house? Right, nobody. That’s why I made a custom RGB lamp. The lamp consists of 256 individually addressable LED’s and all of the LED’s can be controlled via a smartphone app. Additionally, you can build multiple […]
Create your own rc controlled led-strip for individual room illumination! Most rgb-led-strips are controlled by an infrared remote control. To turn it off or on or change the color, you have to stay in front of the receiver. This is boring and not really smart. To control the light in a cooler way, i developed
This instructable will guide you to glow an LED using a touch sensor which means that the LED will glow when you touch on the probe of the sensor. The project uses the Mediatek linkit one connected to a touch sensor and an LED. As soon a touch is detected, the output goes high which
How to make a shark puppet with blinking LED lights for its eyes! The two LED lights are going to turn on when the shark’s mouth is closed the first time, after the first time the lights come on, the LEDs are going to blink when the mouth is closed. Step 1: Preparation Things you
First, you need to know that a lightstrip is a bunch of LEDs daisychained together. The three contacts are +5v, GND and DI (data in, AKA DIN). If you are using the same lightstrip, you can solder just 3 wires… Now on to building Step 1: Tinning Your Contacts Before soldering anything, you need to
The ESP8266-01 only has a limited number of I/O pins (only 4). Fortunately these pins can be used for I2C communication, allowing us to add a hoist of other chips.I wanted to add an RTC to the ESP8266-01 and for testing purposes I did not want to always have to go to an ESP8266 generated
What is Intel® Quark™ microcontroller D2000? The Intel® Quark™ microcontroller D2000, is a low power, battery-operated, 32-bit microcontroller with a more robust instruction set than other entry-level microcontrollers. The first x86-based Intel® Quark™ microcontroller, Intel® Quark™ microcontroller D2000 also increases input/output options over other entry-level microcontrollers. Within its small footprint, the Intel® Quark™ microcontroller D2000

Many of you have been wondered by seeing the LCD Display at various places and would have given a little thought about how the things work behind such a real time display. Let’s clear such confusions and create a 6*8 LED display approximately similar to LCD display. There might be some variations in LCD display
SmartLights is a simple way to automate your home lighting. Unlike Phillips Hue and other commercial devices, SmartLights is economical and easily customisable . The project requires some technical skill, but they are fairly simple and can be easily followed. Some of the Features of SmartLights — Alarms – you can set alarms and the lights
Another basic Arduino project is waiting for you to build! This exciting project will allow you to create an awesome L.E.D Music Visualizer using few components such as a Microphone module, resistors, L.E.Ds, and Arduino. This project is perfect for those who really loves music. Everybody loves music (including me) so that’s why I made one for my own entertainment
