Never in the same shape
Open-source electronic prototyping platform allowing to create interactive electronic objects.
With this article, I will start to post a series of tutorials describing the use of several sensors, both for Arduino and for Raspberry Pi. Let’s start with a commonly used PIR sensor for detecting movement within a room or outdoors.
Moov is a Gael Langevin’s project, a French sculptor and designer. His main idea was to be able to carry out a project, such as a robot, through cooperation and sharing of all those who are able to contribute in this area, working through a community of “builders”.
This component (a small chip) HMC5883L, produced by Honeywell, bases its operation on AMR (Anisotropic Magnetoresistive) technology and allows you to be able to measure both the direction and the magnitude of the earth’s magnetic field. This magnetometer HMC5883L has within 3 magneto-resistive sensors arranged on three perpendicular axes (the Cartesian axes x, y and z).
LilyPad Arduino is one of the many Arduino microcontrollers, but unlike the more well-known Arduino UNO, MEGA and Yun, this little board has very specific characteristics that make it unique. In fact, the LilyPad can be sewn on fabric. In fact, with less than 5€ you can add technology to our garments, but also bags, shoes, diaries, and so on. In this article we will know in detail this board and we’ll see some examples of how it has been applied in some exciting projects.
The Parametric Hybrid Wall is a project protected by intellectual property even if free downloadable and editable.
And the day came at the Maker Faire Rome 2014, for the highly anticipated official presentation of the first 3D printer brand Arduino, with the evocative name of “Materia” 101, as if to stimulate the “demiurgic” abilities of future users.
Ardufonino is a mobile opensource created with Arduino, able to make and receive calls, and send and receive messages. In addition, with the implementation of this project, I wanted to lay the groundwork for the construction of a basic telephone system.
For those who delight in carrying out projects with Arduino, sooner or later they will have to deal with the exchange of values between the Arduino and the PC to which it is connected.
Along with the new and highly anticipated Arduino TRE board, which in the meantime has been released in a limited edition (I have not purchased it given the high price at which it was proposed, that is over 150 EURs …:( ), the release of a new Arduino board was recently announced: the new Arduino ZERO.
With the availability of an Arduino board, most likely after learning how to create your first circuits, you will certainly want to utilize your board to control a motor.
