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...
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*/...
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...
Step 10 - Figure out breakout schema for IO pins and the various IO ports from the FPGA (i.e. the connections that will enable the FPGA to interact with the world...ex: 'perfboard'-style area, headers, etc.
As you can see in the picture, the screen is glued onto the PCB with a thick piece of aluminium between them. Now we have to remove the LCD screen and plate from the motherboard. This is tricky. You must be extremely careful, because the LCD is made...
Laser Cut Acrylic (2.6 mm thick I believe, but you can double check the slot measurements in the DXFs to be sure) Accordign to the following DXFs.https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_2xkbzRozdxbHZLQ...Solder the ends of each ring of WS2811's together,...
1) Come up with a simple good idea.2) Add good ideas to it.3) Try to implement it.4) When it fails, start to strip down the design to try to get it to work.5) Strip it down more6) More...7) Rejoyce when something simple works8) Add a few simple things...
Drill two holes, almost all the way through, two blocks of something the same size as the outer diameter of your roller blade bearings. It's a common size like 3/4 or 7/8in. Make them identical. For the hole you are after, you need a nut on the threaded...
The project is just a typical bread board project. use what ever techniques your comfortable with. I use a mix of soldering for the voltage and current collectors and use wire wrap to tie those collectors back to the Arduino. One mistake I made that...
Step 10 - You will likely want to mount some kind of USB extension connector through the back of the frame. Again, the type and style will depend on your control adapter, and if you've made it this far, you should be able to figure that out on...
Analog 4 is the Temperature sensor input.The TMP36 outputs an analog voltage that represents the temperature.A simple formula gives the temperature based on voltage:float celsius = ((voltage * 1000) - 500) / 10;
Connect driver boards with ribbon cables. 7-segment display boards and led board uses 10 wire cable, 14-segment displays use 12 wire cables.Note that there is no 12 wire IDC plug, so I used 14 wire plug and left the last two wires unconnected on the...
Greetings fellow Enthusiasts Let me introduce myself. I'm Bones MacGyver. I like to make sparks.I'm going to do my best to help out the community with their battery woes.By no means am I a battery expert. But I have used and abused MANY Ni-Cd cells (and...
