Some recent news
2010-03-17 17:47:00 I didn't have much time to fill the pages in this blog lately, but that's life when you're a student, right? A few weeks ago I attended a garagegeeks Arduino workshop that Noni Katz hosted. I met... Read more

How to use the DS18S20 and DS18B20 temperature sensors with Arduino
2009-08-23 16:08:00 I bought from FunGizmos few DS18S20 temperature sensors to test for my small robot project and last week they finally got into my hands but only today I had the time to try them out. To connect the sensors to the Arduino board I choose the parasite mode which derive power directly from the data line ...
Free Arduino language file for GeSHi
2009-08-18 07:50:00 As you may know, from now on all the code from this blog will be on tutorialpedia. I started writing some Arduino tutorials so I needed a syntax highlighter for the code I wrote, the best choice was GeSHI but it didn’t had a language file for Arduino code so I wrote it. An example of it ...
Arduino : how to use the Serial port
2009-08-17 09:57:00 Sometimes you really need to use the Serial port (UART or USART) of Arduino to communicate with your computer (or other devices) for debugging or readings. Arduino uses digital pins 0 (RX, receive) and 1 (TX, transmission) for Serial communication with all devices and the USB cable for communication with the computer (and the built-in Serial ...
Arduino?s ?Hello World!? : blinking a LED
2009-08-09 08:58:00 As in all programming languages .. you start with a Hello World! code so you can see the basic structure for that language. Because Arduino can’t just print ‘Hello World!’ (in fact it can but using an external device, like an LCD display, which I will describe in another tutorial) the easiest way is to blink ...
Back on Arduino!
2009-08-08 16:33:00 Ok, I got more free time so I dedicated it to few Arduino tutorials starting from the simplest one : Hello World! – blinking a LED and culminating with the build of my own Arduino-based robot. The plan is to learn you (and myself) the basics of connecting Arduino to LEDs, temperature sensors, distance sensors, DC ...
How to do a mood lamp using Arduino
2008-12-27 23:39:00 This was my first Arduino project so I decided to use only LEDs Being Christmas I wanted to do something nice to look at night so I looked on my electronic parts box and found 3 different color LEDs : red, green and blue. I soldered their cathodes and then took 10 inches of ...
Laser Modem with an Arduino Microcontroller
2008-08-12 04:03:00 Serial data transition from a Arduino controller using a standard red laser, photo transistor and an instrumentation amplifier. This started when I ordered an IR led and phototransistor pair from Spark Fun along with some spare ATMega168 microcontrollers. I first experimented using the IR led to transmit 2400 baud serial to the phototransistor. I programmed my Arduino Diecimila with the sample serial program altering the baud rate and allowing it to run in a continuous loop. read more

Arduino: Open source hardware
2008-05-19 17:41:00 Pito’s Technology Blog – Check out Arduino, a totally cool tiny embedded computer suitable for creating smart things – art, robotics, sensors and controllers. You program it on your laptop, and download the program to the device. It appears to be a vibrant community with lots of people building compatible boards as well as add-ons which they seem to call ... read more
The Arduino is here !!!
2008-03-24 07:44:00 Finally it is here and I can start doing some small projects with it. The first one will be a RGB Mood Lamp.
Gmail Light Cube - New Email Notifier
2008-03-02 16:22:00 This is a project you don’t see every day. Could it be more practical and more cooler than it is ? probably not. I mean I want it, i know you will too. I think they should mass produce these things. Now for those of you who don’t get the ideea, this is a cube ...

Arduino compatible breadboard with an ATMEL8 AVR microcontroller
2008-03-02 13:19:00 Here is a simple tutorial on building your own Arduino compatible breadboard. The board is controlled with an ATMEL8 AVR Microcontroller and a Spark Fun Breakout Board for FT232RL USB to Serial .Its a good project to start into programming microcontrollers, but if you dont like building it you could buy one already built from ...

Waiting for my board
2008-02-12 10:00:00 Hey, I was busy with the semester exams but now I’m almost over with them (the last one is tomorrow but it is pretty easy) I wasn’t into the electronics projects for quite a time but now I’m determined to make new projects using … Arrrduino :P, I just ordered an Arduino Diecimila board and ...
HOW TO - Arduino charliplexed heart
2008-02-10 07:47:00 Jay writes - Here is an Arduino controlled Charliplexed LED heart just in time for Valentine's Day. It uses a total of 6 wires to control the 27 LEDs. A PIC or AVR could easily be used for this, but I have Arduinos lying around and they are easy to

The ultimate Wearable Electronic DIY Kit: LilyPad Arduino
2007-10-10 17:38:00 Leah Buechley created in cooperation with Sparkfun the next generation of e-textile modules for the Wearable Electronic DIY enthusiasts: the LilyPad-Arduino set. To introduce Leah Buechely might not be needed for our regular readers and everyone interested into Wearable Electronics just so much, Leah is a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of ...

Arduino: Hardware libre
2007-10-08 00:00:00 Mucho se habla del software libre. Quizás sea porque suele ser gratis, o mucho mas barato que el software privativo.Sin embargo, existen otros movimientos con la misma finalidad como "Arduino", de los que no se habla tanto. Arduino es la aplicación al hardware de la filosofía del software libre. Arduino es un microcontrolador, es decir, circuito integrado que nos ofrece las posibilidades de un pequeño computador. Existen muchas alternativas de microcontroladores, pero lo que diferencia a Arduino del resto, es su carácter libre.Es decir, comprando las piezas adecuadas, y siguiendo las instrucciones que puedes descargar de su pagina, puedes montarte tu propio microcontrolador Arduino a muy bajo coste, un coste muy inferior a otros microcontroladores similares comerciales.Además, al igual que el software libre, lo mejor de este proyecto está en su comunidad de desarrollo, que libera cada proyecto que se realiza. De forma que una vez montado (o comprad...

Arduino: Barcode Scanner (Work In Progress)
2007-03-06 18:38:02 Ok, here I have a Symbol LT-1780 handheld barcode scanner. It has an RJ-45 cable with a 9-pin end (Not RS-232). I took an old RS-232 plug and put that on the end of the cable, and used that to wire it up to the Arduino. Pics Soon. read more |
