You can fade out and fade in the light of an LED automatically by using Arduino and a simple code that is described below. Even though the Arduino board cannot output variable voltage on its digital ...

Here is a simple Arduino Camping Light project. In this design, only one push button switch is used to control the light output (from a bunch of white ...

The Arduino can just increment the counter up to the appropriate LED. The Arduino then controls the state of the LED using the active high enable line from the column multiplexer chip.

People use ugly sweater parties as opportunities to get creative: Some may find tacky sweaters while rummaging through their parents’ closets and browsing in thrift shops; others may craft their ...

The Arduino-powered display is built from a strip of 35 RGB LEDs. Now, that’s four pins per LED but one of is ground, leaving just 105 pins that need to be addressable.

The difference between incandescent and LED light bulbs Before we get into a cost comparison, let’s take a look at what sets LED bulbs and incandescent bulbs apart.

This week I will outline a project for Halloween that uses the Arduino and a light to create a glowing effect inside a pumpkin. I use artificial pumpkins for projects like this so I can reuse them ...

For prototyping, Infineon has a RGB LED lighting control shield for Arduino, based around its ARM Cortex-M0 XMC1202 microcontroller. On board is something called a ‘brightness colour control unit’ ...

Can't afford a stage lighting designer for your band's next concert? A group of MIT engineers show how to hack together a Wi-Fi-enabled LED light fixture that responds to music in real-time.
