L20G20IS Gyroscope: The secret behind the perfect picture

STMelectronics introduces a super tiny two-axis gyroscope (L20G20IS), a Micro-Electro-Mechanical system (MEMS) designed for the optical image stabilization for Smartphones with less energy consumption compared to its predecessor (L2G2IS). A gyroscope, or gyro for short, adds an additional dimension to the information supplied from the accelerometer by tracking rotation or twist. An accelerometer measures linear acceleration of movement, while […]

Accelerometer Based Hand Action Recognition using Atmega644

Introduction We created a wearable game controller that uses accelerometers to acquire action of the hand and then maps an action to an arbitrary keystroke. The types of actions we are trying to recognize should be suitable as input control for video games. We placed 3 z-axis accelerometers on tips of the thumb, the index

Dual Control RC Car Using Atmega32

Dual Control R/C Car Using Atmega32

The purpose of this project was to take a traditional remote controlled car and create our own control mechanisms. To control the car, we used a dual-axis accelerometer and LEDs (light emitting diodes) configured as photo-detectors. The control mechanism was selected using a single pole dual throw (spdt) switch was wired in a single pole

Enter the Esplora, Arduino game controller

Welcome the new Arduino – the Esplora ! It’s shaped like a game controller, and it’s designed to be used out of the box as it comes with many sensors and actuators already on it (you can add a couple of extra ones). In more detail, the Esplora combines a light sensor, a temperature sensor, a 3-axis accelerometer, a joystick, a set of pushbuttons, a slider, an RGB LED, and a buzzer, together with a Arduino-compatible processor (ATmega32u4).
