Not satisfied with the handheld remote control for his outdoor patio lights, [timabram] decided to build an automatic timer using an ESP8266. He’s using a set of string lights from Costco, bu… ...

MIT’s Media Lab is working on a system of information-sharing that can use light-based communication to remind you of an appointment or program an Arduino. The coin-sized Droplet is an ambient ...

Now we can stepped into the light with our favorite microcontroller Arduino! Since a vast number of analog/digital ambient light sensors/light sensor modules are now available at reasonable price, ...

He ended up creating this killer Arduino-controlled photography rig that does a whole lot more. This hack was built for [Hlesliebole]’s Nikon D3100, but he says it should work with any DSLR and ...

“Arduino Self-Timer” project presented here is a low-component count 60 seconds countdown timer. It can be powered from a 9V compact battery or suitable Arduino AC mains adaptor. Working of the ...

This module shows how the Arduino can be used to time physical events. In this case, we measure the duration of a passing object when it breaks a light beam. If the object has a known length, such as ...

Runner and Arduino enthusiast Nikodem Bartnik has created a DIY 100m sprint timer which is placed at the finish line and signals the start of timing via an audible bleep from its integrated speaker.

At the same time, it's a little advanced for a first Arduino-based project, so tread carefully if you want to try this out on your own. Still, all of the details are there and the results speak ...

You have a timer and clock in just about every single device out there these days, but if you want to build you own, Instructables user GeraldF6 shows you how to do so with a Arduino.

The Arduino IDE has to use one of its timers in fast PWM mode (timer 0) and fudges the 0% setting with a trick: by detecting the ‘0’ command, which the hardware would convert to its 1/256 setting, in ...
