Arduino – Basic Cookbook

Description: This project uses a photoresistor to detect the ambient light level, and then as the light level goes up or down it changes the brightness of the LED. For this project the LED becomes […]

Description: PWM, or Pulse Width Modulation, allows you to use a digital pin like a dimmer switch. Instead of being only on or off, you can set the amount of power going to the pin. […]

Description: This project creates a distance sensor alarm like the backup distance buzzers in cars. The closer an object gets to the sensor the faster the buzzer beeps. This project can be connected to a […]

Description: This recipe shows you how to use an Ultrasonic Distance Sensor to determine the distance of objects away from your Arduino Project. You will be able to view the distance measurements in both centimeters […]

Description: With this project we create an LED display to show users if a temperature reading is within certain limits. We use a Blue LED to signify that the temperature is Cold, Green LED to […]

Description: This recipe will teach you how to use an IR Sensor with the Arduino and you will learn to turn on either an LED or a Buzzer based on whether the sensor is triggered. […]

Description: This project shows you how to connect an Analog Temperature Sensor to the Arduino. You are able to view the readings from the sensor though the Serial Monitor Tool built into the Arduino IDE. […]

Description: This project loops through and turns an LED, then a buzzer, then a Fan Motor on and off. This shows students that turning most types of outputs on or off is the same. Parts: […]

Description: This recipe teaches you how to make an LED blink using an Arduino. LED’s are used in Arduino projects as a way to communicate system status to users. Make sure to use the 220 […]
