This project is about an open-source, USB based, 10 digit seven segment display unit. This unit is specifically designed to work with POS systems and banking applications. Initially, this system is developed to work with PC based POS systems, and later it was modified to work with...

This Li-Po/Li-ion Arduino charger shield is mainly designed to power up the Arduino from single 3.6V Li-Po battery. Li-Ion and Li-Pol Charger/ DC-DC Boost converter Arduino shield provides 6.5V/400mA from single Lithium Polymer battery. The Arduino shield is equipped with BQ21040...

We have built quite a number of weather stations in several past tutorials, with each one differing from the other by the use of a different sensor, different display, etc. Today, we are going to build another weather monitoring station using the BME280 Temp and humidity sensor from...

This project generates 8 different LED-lighting patterns (Visual Effects) and is based on PIC16F886. The project demonstrates different chasing effects being generated using 20 SMD LEDs and  speed of LED-lighting moving is adjustable with the help of the on board trimmer...

Latching Toggle switches are one of the most popular kinds of switches, from their use by kids in basic electricity classes to their use in prototypes and more advanced products, they provide a familiar and reliable way to close or open a circuit. This makes them the go to switch for...

IoT is now mainstream. It has gone beyond the buzzword it used to be and several tools are being made available to makers to facilitate the development of solutions based on it. One of the newest IoT platforms is the Arduino IoT Cloud developed by our good friends at Arduino.cc. Today we...

The ESP32 has about 4MB of internal flash memory and since the data stored within the flash memory is retained even when power is recycled, it becomes super useful for applications where you need to keep certain amount of data even after power off. For today's tutorial, we will learn how...

  This 16x2 LCD shield for Arduino Nano includes various addons, like 5 Tactile Switches, 3 Trimmer Potentiometers, LM35 Temperature sensor and the 16x2 LCD itself. It's a compact shield designed to fit in small enclosures and it is intended to develop measuring devices like...
