Introduction Our Project is a game that generates arrows which player needs to stroke corresponding keyboard button while background music is playing. Computer-based Dancing games such as DDR and Pump-It-Up are very popular nowadays because they are equipped with both interactive user interface of computer games and dynamics of dance and music. Our version of […]

Introduction We created a wireless device to affix to the bottom of a pitcher that alerts the wait staff when the pitcher is empty. We used the a priori knowledge that when a pitcher is empty the pitchers bottom is perpendicular to the ground. By affixing an accelerometer to the bottom of a pitcher we

Introduction This is a digital home security system with voice feature which can monitor room temperature, smoke, motion, and windows & doors. The goal of this project is to utilize the after-market parts and build an integrated home security system. Besides traditional magnetic switch equipped on doors and windows, we have also incorporated temperature sensor,

Introduction Our project is a UPC-A Barcode Scanner complete with a pricing/description database interface. Our original goal for this project was to build a standard barcode scanner from scratch, but as the project evolved so had to our specification of the project. We initially sought to build a charge-coupled device (CCD) scanner, which scans the

I’m planning to build a EEVblog-ish constant dummy load for battery and power supply testing. Dave in his build used a LCD voltmeter for the display. In the senseless pursuit of difference, I tried other display solutions including character LCD, graphics LCD, OLED, TFT, AMOLED, IPS, which resulted in several previous blogs but nothing ends up

The article covers how to interface an accelerometer with the atmega32/atmega16. Before proceeding, the user must know the basics of ADC (Analogy to digital converter) of the AVR.An accelerometer is an electromechanical device that will measure acceleration forces. These forces may be static, like the constant force of gravity pulling at your feet, or they

In this new tutorial, we will be interfacing a LM35 based temperature sensor with ATMEGA32. The 3 main types are thermometers, resistance temperature detectors, and thermocouples. All three of these sensors measure a physical property (i.e. volume of a liquid, current through a wire), which changes as a function of temperature. In addition to the

The DIY Cellphone is a working (albeit basic) cellphone that you can make yourself. It can make and receive phone calls and text messages, store names and phone numbers, and display the time. It builds on the hardware and software in the Arduino GSM Shield but extends it with a full interface, including display, buttons,
