Introduction For our final project, we have designed and built a ‘proof of concept’ prototype for Project Green Stations, an externally funded student group with the following mission statement: Project Green Stations is all about changing the way people see the environment. Imagine the go-green movement as a brand. Solar panels, Toyota Priuses, and waste […]

USB power testers provide users with the opportunity of examining how much power a device plugged into a USB port is drawing from the port. While this is mostly used by designers who are building USB-powered devices and are trying to evaluate how much power it consumes, it is sometimes also used to appraise the

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

This project is a companion to my other Home Automation projects Smart Data- Logging Geyser Controller and Multi-purpose-Room-Lighting and Appliance Controller . It is a pool side mounted monitor that measures the pool water temperature, ambient air temperature and barometric pressure. It then displays the pool water temperature on a local LED bargraph and transmits via WiFi/MQTT to a

Keep an eye on your beloved bbies and play music or tell ’em to be quiet while you are away! This tutorial will show how to use a Raspberry Pi computer to monitor the volume of sound in your home (via the Cloud) to see if and when your pet is upset. Drum roll… the
A project for someone who lights up my life… As a Christmas present (albeit an extremely late one now) for a long-distance friend, I wanted to build lamps that could “talk” to one another, as in “reflect each other’s color animations when simulated.” This involved a lot of frustrated screaming into pillows, late night confusion on why
