I made this Arduino project that allows to turn ON and OFF LEDs using a cheap IR remote control as a preparation for the next big step: disassemble my girlfriend’s chinese LED lamp and replace its ...

One of the first projects that most people do on an Arduino is to light up or flash an LED. It seems ultra-simple because it ...

This is an easy tutorial showing how you can control the brightness of an LED or adjust the speed of a DC fan using Arduino Board, a small BC547 transistor and a potentiometer. In my example the whole ...

In a previous article, I discussed LEDs in general and their properties. In this write-up, I want to give some examples of driving LEDs and comparing a few of the most commonly used methods. There is ...

Regular candles can be awfully boring at times. They can only produce one color and the flicker is so… predictable. They can’t even be controlled by an infrared remote control, not to mention the ...

Arduino Micro has some extra leds that it is tricky to programme. Like almost all Arduinos, has a built-in led – the green one on the left in the photo. And it has a pair of yellow leds – called TX ...

This 8x8x8 LED cube with 512 LEDs takes the old 3x3x3 light cube made up of 27 LEDs to the nth degree. This, certainly more time consuming project, actually involves a simpler design. By using a ...

[Credit: Djandco on Instructables] The Look of Disapproval (made using the unicode character for the letter “tha” in the Indian language of Kannada and an underscore) is possibly my favorite ...

As mentioned in LED Lightlane increases bicycle safety at night we like combinations of LEDs and bicycling on Gadget Master... Here is another example, drawn to our attention by Electronics Weekly's ...

Arduino announced it has collaborated with M5Stack to develop the new compact and powerful Nesso N1 IoT development kit. This system extends the Arduino ecosystem's flexibility into connected devices ...
