How can you detect the presence of a flame without a fancy commercial device? In this post I will describe how to build cheap flame sensors at home with a couple of methods. Second Method: Secondly, ...

This one tickles me for some reason – a flame simulation using the Arduino MKR RGB Shield. And that’s about it really – all you need is the shield and an Arduino board to plug it directly into, such ...

An Arduino is a microcontroller — a single board designed to control something and perform a specific task. Unlike a ...

An Arduino can be used to test the life of any battery with less than 5 volts, Boxall says. So, for a quick way to see how much juice your AAA, AA, C, or D batteries have left, build this ...

This project is to prototype a set of self-powered (such as piezoelectric, thermostat, solar, etc) embedded sensor systems for pervasive computing. A tangible exam is a body-temperature powered motion ...
