An Arduino is a much better choice than a Raspberry Pi for tasks that require real-time input and responses. While a Pi can ...

[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ...

Finally, your Arduino toolkit will be incomplete if you don't purchase some sensor and circuit modules. After all, you can’t build a precise weather station without a BME280, DHT22, DS18B20, or ...

The usual solution is to use some sort of statistical averaging to reduce noise in sensor readings. This is often called “filtering”. The goal of this quick project is to experiment with two types of ...

Seeking students for projects prototyping a set of self-powered embedded sensor systems for pervasive computing. These projects will sharpen your hardware and software skills.

In this project, students will design and prototype a novel wearable sensor for continuous physiological monitoring (e.g., heart rate, blood pressure, glucose, etc.). Besides the conventional ...

Over the last decade, the open-source movement has not only transformed the world of software, but also catalyzed a sweeping revolution in hardware tinkering. At the heart of this shift lies a ...

This is an Arduino-based Proximity Sensor circuit wired using the popular HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging module,used here for non-contact object detection purpose. The HC-SR04 module includes ultrasonic ...
