Introduction to LoRa – Send data between two Arduino using LoRa
Selecting the right communication protocol is an important part of any IoT project as not being able to communicate with the server/device cloud quickly takes away the “I” in IoT and could lead to the ultimate failure of the project. Several communication protocols exist, from WiFi...

Arduino library to draw text and graphics on BLE Thermal Printers
BitBank Software, Inc., written by Larry Bank, [email protected] This Arduino library allows you to easily generate text and graphics and send them to a BLE thermal printer. Since there are many different BLE APIs depending on the board manufacturer, I decided to support the more...

Piksey Atto: An incredibly tiny, Arduino compatible board with USB!
This cost-effective, yet tiny USB dev. board is designed for makers. It can be soldered onto PCBs, used with a breadboard or by itself. The author recently started creating DIY projects on their YouTube channel and they ran into a similar issue, time and again. Most of the sensors and...

Serpentine – Tiny CircuitPython-Based Development Board
CircuitPython's user base is growing even though a lot of people believe Micropython is a better route. It enjoys the rigorous backing 0f one of the major drivers of the Maker community (Aka Adafruit) and recently has been the "embedded Python" stack of choice for several open-source...

Network Clock using ESP8266 and OLED display
There are several situations where using an RTC could adversely affect your project by increasing cost, size, time accuracy or IO requirements. To prevent this, especially in ESP/WiFi-based or other clock-reliant projects, makers usually turn to obtain time information from NTP servers....

Arduino RFID Reader using the ArduiTouch MKR Enclosure
RFID based projects are one of the most popular Arduino projects out there and we have also built a couple of them here too, but I recently came across an RFID access control project by hwhardsoft that was built using the ArduiTouch MKR enclosures. The ready-made nature of the...
