In the arduino code set your WiFi credentials char wifissid[] = "ENTER YOUR WiFi SSID HERE"; char wifipass[] = "ENTER YOUR WiFi PASSWORD HERE"; Normally, the signal strength is displayed in dBm. But for a non techie person, the signal strength in terms...
The sun tracking system consists of: 1. Two roller shutter/awning motors: These motors are industrial, easy to purchase, cheap, and with a high torque (10Nm being the lowest). Average price of each motor around 30€...
I wanted to use a BMP280 I had in my parts bin for altitude measurements. I have used it in the past for a simple weather station and it works great! Turns out, it is even the go to sensor for Stratux, so I went ahead and plugged it in, activated it...
Flash the Arduino with the following sketch. This is also included as a file attached to the project. int last_level = 0; bool last_state = false; bool stable = false; int count = 0; const int cutoffs[198] = {/* 1*/ 833, 831, /* 2*/ 825, 823, /* 3*/...
Attaching a SensorIn order to attach a sensor, motor, camera or other component to the Redtree Hydra, the FPGA inside must be programmed. We know that this is normally a tricky task, so we created a tool to simplify it. The Redtree Hydra has four I/O...
Next we will prepare the water flow. I decided to use this combination of pump and tubing, because they fit without an adapter. Other combinations work also. Clear tubbing isnt the best solution, because algae will grow inside the tubes. you can prevent...
Schematics / AssemblySolder the elements on the printed circuit board according to the circuit diagram, instructions and markings placed on the printed circuit board.Connect the WeMos MiniID1 ESP-32, 16 pin male header using soldering or connectors.Insert...
Pedalino is designed to work with the majority of expression pedals on the market, but there are a few popular pedal types which are incompatible and need to use adapters in order to work with Pedalino. There is no recognized standard for footswitch...
Plug in the freshly minted EDID Inserter and a repeated invocation of the following should yield only 256 FFs typical of an EEPROM fresh from the factory:sudo i2cdump 3 0x50Dire admonitions are issued even when merely trying to read:No size specified...
Make you the PCB and get the components and any standard 60mm 4-wire fan will probably do the job. I used a JMC "6015-12HB APW" that I had lying around. The exact the same fan is readily available on eBay.I used eagle to design my PCB, and the files...
If you don't want to use EDAPlayground you can download Icarus Verilog or install it from a software repository. If you want to use it, you'll first want to save the files in the file section (design.v and testbench.v) to your working...
In order to decode the 23 bytes of payload that the sensor is sending we need to implement a decoder, in this case we need to create one custom. Once you select to create a custom decoder you just simply copy and paste the next code which is written...
UV-C bulbs use a dab of mercury plus a glowing hot filliment in a low pressure tube of glass to generate ultraviolet light that peaks around 253.7 nano meters, the optimal germicidal wavelength in the UV-C part of the spectrum. Not to be...
The printer can be controlled by sending values via i2c. Each set bit represents a printer command like: 0 - everything off 1 - single drop printhead 1 2 - single drop printhead 2 4 - single drop printhead 3 8 - single drop printhead 4 16 - drops at...
Installing Firmware via an SD CardFor this first part of the tutorial we are going to be using a firmware that demonstrates a couple of buttons, a progress bar and a text field.In the firmware folder in the library you will find the .tft files:2.4" Nextion...
