The Leap Motion SDK does all the complex stuff, and in the end, just sends a serial command of how many fingers it sees to the Arduino in order to control the hand. For more info about the project ...

Application control is “via real-time dashboards combined with the Arduino Cloud or third-party services”. Software development is typically Arduino, via Arduino sketches, tutorials and libraries, and ...

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are complete and durable, but they’re expensive and hard to program. It’s time our friend Arduino got tougher and smarter than a PLC! Eliminate the wires.

The Arduino team has announced a PLC Starter Kit aimed at those looking to learn about industrial automation apps. We’re talking real-time control, and monitoring and maintenance applications… The ...

An enterprising hacker got their hands on one of the da Vinci’s delicate mechanical tools, and has managed to connect the hardware up to a Leap Motion controller — making its tiny surgical ...

The Arduino Nano is programmed to control the frame’s components, which include LEDs and a vibrating motor. These components work together to create the slow-motion effect. The LEDs are ...

As found in the schematic of the generic PIR motion detector module, one pin of the LDR goes to ground rail (0 V) and the other pin goes to Pin 9 of the PIR controller IC (BISS0009 ... on-board ...

More and more end users are asking for robots, motion controllers, and PLC’s to be programmed in familiar PLC languages. These languages are easier for machine builder programmers to understand ...

The Precision Motion Drive System from Amacoil/Uhing ... customized linear movement of the drive nut. The core PLC/software package can control several Model RG drive stations, making it ...
