Arduino – Redefining the TV Remote
Posted on June 13, 2010 | 17 CommentsWe use them every day, but has no one got bored of pressing buttons on a stick, it’s far too much effort pressing buttons! Surely there are better ways to... -
Arduino + Processing: Make a Radar Screen to Visualise Sensor Data from SRF-05 – Part 2: Visualising the Data
Posted on November 15, 2009 | 27 CommentsThis is where all the work is done to read an interpret the values from the servo and the sensor. If the readings are to erratic then you won’t have... -
Arduino + Processing – Make a Radar Screen to Visualise Sensor Data from SRF-05 – Part 1: Setting up the Circuit and Outputting Values
Posted on November 15, 2009 | 24 CommentsFirst things first, we need to build our circuit. This is the easy bit! We’ll be using the Arduino to control a servo that will rotate our sensor around 180... -
Arduino – Basic Theremin meets Processing!
Posted on November 7, 2009 | 26 CommentsMy last theremin involved a small speaker. Now I’ve replaced the speaker with my PC, using processing to pick up the values from the SRF05 ultrasound sonar distance sensor and... -
Arduino – A Basic Theremin
Posted on November 7, 2009 | 10 CommentsTheremins are cool. Fact. You may also have heard of them as either aetherphone/ etherophone or termenvox/ thereminvox. Essentially its an electronic music instrument that plays a certain note depending... -
Obstacle avoidance Arduino robot – build your own larryBot
Posted on August 16, 2009 | 91 CommentsSo after 5 previous versions that had various flaws, I now have an Arduino robot that actually works and although basic is very cheap – although there a probably a... -
larryBot – Arduino robot versions 0.1 to 0.5 lessons learned
Posted on August 7, 2009 | 3 CommentsSo I’ve decided to build a robot using Arduino to control the sensors. Here’s my progress so far – I am hoping that my mistakes here and over the coming... -
Arduino & Processing – Getting values from SRF05 ultrasound sensor & serial port
Posted on August 5, 2009 | 2 CommentsI’ve started to delve into Processing and passing values between Processing and Arduino. If you’re wondering what Processing is, basically its an open source programming language for vizualising data that... -
Arduino – Sonic range finder with SRF05
Posted on July 12, 2009 | 24 CommentsA guide to using the SRF05 Distance Sensor with Arduino in order to calculate distances from objects. In this case I’m also altering the output of an LED with PWM...
