Now that your rotary encoder hardware is up and running it’s time to tell your Arduino what to do with the encoder signals. There are the two basic ways to read a microcontroller’s digital input. With ...

In this article you will learn how to make a digital clock using Arduino and the DS1307 RTC IC. What is DS1307 IC actually? Well, it is a Real Time Clock (RTC) IC that is simple to use, low cost and ...

A rotary encoder tells the processor the position of the arm so the Arduino sketch can determine which LEDs should be lit to show the time and clock face. What’s even more amazing is [Dylan ...

If you dig DIY clocks or you just think lasers are cool, this is the kind of project that you might want to try, especially if you're getting started with Arduino projects. You'll need an Arduino ...

I needed a rotary encoder — I pulled a cheap one out of one of those “49 boards for Arduino” kits you see ... I used the Kernel::Clock::now feature from Mbed. It isn’t clear if you are ...

Alarm clocks are cheap and abundant, but they’re pretty boring. If you want to make your own, Instructables user Paranoid Legend shows you how to build one with an Arduino. The alarm clock is ...

I have to thank one author of a rotary encoder decoder (Ben Buxton). While his code seemed overly complex to my untutored eye, for example creating a new data type, it did show Arduino-novice me two ...

Arduino enthusiasts or those looking to build a DIY binary clock may be interested in a new shield created by developer Marcin Saj. The Arduino binary clock shield has been made available via the ...
