I needed to remove the dials and the switch from the board because I wanted to have them accessible from the rim of the ear muff. However, each of these components had a minimum of 5 pins. My approach was to use a hot air gun to melt all the solder on...

Hardware used. Seeeduino v1.1 Phaktor bought this a few years back, played with it a couple of times but it just sat in his hobby bin ‘til now. Parallax LCD http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/27977/27... bought from RadioShack...
The transmitter in the fourth picture uses a few more parts. I had a 3.3V breakout board and the signal reached only about a yard. So I added a 555 voltage doubler to Albert's hardwarehttp://www.talkingelectronics.com/projects/50%20-%20555%20Circuits/50%20-%20555%20Circuits.htm...
Keep in mind, for windows 7+ I had to change the friendly names of each web cam so that Processing can address each one consistently. Here is a tutorial: http://www.eightforums.com/customization/15321-tu... Also, here is an Instructable to hack the power...
For a while had been wanting to experiment with having touchscreens around the house to add more home control options to a location. Having a smartphone and older iPod touches used as remote controls, I knew they aren't always within reach or easily...
Residency0x03FieldKitFieldKit is an open-source software and hardware platform (environmental sensors, app, and FieldKit.org website) that allows individuals and organizations to collect and share field-based research data, and to tell stories through...
GoalsThe goal of this project is to emulate the Canon 600EX-RT Speedlite (via it's IEEE 802.15.4 protocol) and interpret the commands from Canon transceiver so that the Paul C Buff - Einstein light can be controlled with the Canon gear.CyberSync CSXCV...
Arduino's SoftwareSerial library, based on NewSoftSerial by Mikal Hart, works pretty well for simple projects hwere you only do one thing at a time. But it keeps interrupts disabled during the entire byte plus start and stop bits. For reception,...
Interactive Disk SpinThe Interactive Disk Spin was born one fateful night when Paul took the cover off an old hard drive, started compulsively spinning the shiny platters with his finger, and then wondered "how fast am I really making it go?" Two late-night...
ideally, this sticks to a window, and measures noise levels through a piezo (contact mic). the other piezo is set up to knock. the rgb is for output. on this prototype, you can use the red LED for visual indicator.detail pictures show the traces running...
ED (Electronic Discovery) is specifically designed to engage a family with a friendly faced gadget which is easy to assemble, write code for and encourages them to interact. Ideally this makes electronics a family hobby rather than something Dad does...
The design consists of two servos, mounted in a way in witch one servo pans the other on an x axes, while the other servo tilts a laser on it's y axes. The laser is turned on and off with a transistor, and a camera shutter control is operated by a transistor....
This project has several components, each of which might potentially be its own project:1) The modded monocular head-mounted display/goggles2) The haptic glove interface3) The dehumidification mechanism for the goggles4) The software stack for implicit...
