The advent of microcontroller modules like the Arduino opened up ability to build and program interactive objects to a whole generation of makers. Today these modules make it simple to control ...

AC loads are everywhere around us because at least home appliances are supplied with the mains power. Therefore, we always face the situations that we want to have full control (dimming) over an AC ...

Tired of building the same old Arduino projects like blinking LEDs, temperature monitors, and line-following robots? Now it’s ...

The Arduino is a great way for hobbyists and pros alike to experiment with programmable objects, but it can be confusing for ...

As a result, remote control technologies are being widely adopted across various sectors. Among the many components used in ...

This article will help you build a simple Arduino-based DCC system. Growing up in the 1980s I was living the dream. I had an HO layout on a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood in my parents' basement in Reading, ...

Since you probably don't use most of the buttons on your remote control, why not make them work for other things? This project shows you how to use an Arduino to decode the signal from a remote and ...

Electrical power systems engineers need practical methods for predicting solar output power under varying environmental conditions of a single panel. By integrating an Arduino-based real-time data ...

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you’ve probably seen us refer to the Arduino microcontroller on a number of occasions. This little circuit board is at the heart of many DIY projects, ...
