DIY Rain Detector using Arduino and Rain Sensor Rain Detection System using Arduino and Rain Sensor

A simple Rain Detection System can be easily built by interfacing an Arduino with Rain Sensor. The sensor will detect any rainfall falling on it and the Arduino board will sense it and can perform required actions. A system like this can be used in many different fields, such as agriculture and automobile fields. Rainfall detection can be used to automatically regulate…

BMP280 Pressure Sensor Module Interfacing with Arduino How to Interface BMP280 Pressure Sensor Module with Arduino

If you want to build your own temperature monitoring system or to measure the altitude of your drone or simply want to measure the atmospheric pressure in your area, then one of the best module for you to use in your project is the BMP280 Pressure sensor module. BMP280 is absolute pressure and temperature monitoring sensor which is the upgraded version of BMP085, BMP180…

LED Display Board using P10 LED Matrix Display and Arduino LED Display Board using P10 LED Matrix Display and Arduino

Display advertising plays a very important role in marketing, and there are several advertising methods like newspapers, posters, glow signboards, etc.. Still, digital LED display boards are getting popular nowadays because of their reliability and advantages. Although they are a little expensive, they are durable and customizable. P10 LED display boards have…

Arduino Currency Counter using IR and Color Sensor Arduino Currency Counter using IR and Color Sensor

In this project we are going to work on an innovative arduino project idea, where we can count the paper currency notes and calculate their amount, by sensing the paper currency using Color Sensor and Arduino. TCS230 color sensor will be used for detecting the currency notes and, Arduino UNO for processing the data and showing the remaining balance on 16x2 LCD.…

Login to Windows Computers using RFID tag and Arduino Login to Windows Computers using RFID tag and Arduino

As many of us know computers were invented around 1871, but it was not until 1961 we had them password protected. Early in the 19’s we used pins and alphanumeric characters as passwords for our computers, today we have many types of verification methods like Password, Pin, Pattern, Gesture, Fingerprint recognition, Face recognition and much more.  But still, it is a…

Alexa controlled Home Automation using Arduino and ESP-01 Wi-Fi Module Alexa Controlled Home Automation using Arduino and ESP-01 Wi-Fi Module

Smart speakers like Amazon Echo or Google home are getting popular now days and both have capability to integrate custom skill or action to control any appliance using those Smart speaker. We previously built our own Smart speaker using Raspberry Pi and Alexa, and also controlled home appliances using this Raspberry Pi smart speaker.

AC Light Dimmer using Arduino and TRIAC AC Light Dimmer using Arduino and TRIAC

In our household, most of the appliances are powered from the AC supply such as Lights, TVs, and Fans, etc. We can turn ON/OFF them digitally if needed, using Arduino and Relays by building a Home automation setup. But what if we need to control the power of those devices for example to dim the AC Lamp or to Control the speed of the Fan. In that case, we have to use phase…

DIY Arduino Wireless Programming Shield using Bluetooth Module DIY Arduino Wireless Programming Shield using Bluetooth Module

While doing projects using Arduino, we always need to connect Arduino to PC in order to upload the program in it. But sometimes it is very uncomfortable to always connect the board with PC as if it is a robotics project then you always have to move the robot near to labtop to re-program it. This problem can be solved by programming the Arduino wirelessly. So here we are…

Sending Sensor Data to Android Phone using Arduino and NRF24L01 over Bluetooth (BLE) Sending Sensor Data to Android Phone using Arduino and NRF24L01 over Bluetooth (BLE)

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is a version of Bluetooth and it is present as a smaller, highly optimized version of the classic Bluetooth. It is also known as Smart Bluetooth. The BLE was designed keeping in mind the lowest possible power consumption specifically for low cost, low bandwidth, low power and low complexity. ESP32 has inbuilt BLE capabilities but for other…

Arduino Sleep Modes and How to use them to Save the Power Arduino Sleep Modes and How to use them to Save the Power

Power consumption is a critical issue for a device running continuously for a long time without being turned off. So to overcome this problem, almost every controller comes with an Arduino sleep mode, which helps developers to design electronic gadgets for optimal power consumption. Sleep mode puts the device in power-saving mode by turning off the unused module. Whether you…

Controlling NEMA 17 Stepper Motor with Arduino and Potentiometer Controlling NEMA 17 Stepper Motor with Arduino and A4988 Stepper Driver Module

A stepper motor is a type of DC motor that works in discrete steps and is used everywhere from a surveillance camera to sophisticated robots and machines. NEMA 17 stepper motor provide accurate control and can be differentiated based on torque, steps per revolution, and input voltage. In our previous project, we controlled a 28-BYJ48 stepper motor using Arduino. 28-…

Hardware setup to control a Solenoid Valve with Arduino How to control a Solenoid Valve with Arduino

Solenoids are very commonly used actuators in many process automation systems. There are many types of solenoid, for instance, there are solenoid valves which can be used to open or close water or gas pipelines and there are solenoid plungers which are used to produce linear motion. One very common application of solenoid that most of us would have come across is the…
