I have added a new tutorial on Arduino: how to control a nixie tube with Arduino. This will get you up to speed if you would like to run a project that uses the lovely orange glow of nixie tubes. Everything is covered: from hardware to software, with useful information […]
If you want to transmit data wirelessly with two Arduinos and cheap RF breakout boards, look no further! A complete tutorial on the SYN115 transmitter and SYN480R receiver radio frequency chips have just been brought up online and is available by clicking here. If you missed it, you can also […]
Wireless communication a few years back was the exclusive playground of RF (radio frequencies). Then it exploded: Nordic, Wifi, Bluetooth, Zigbees… Today there are lots of options available. Simple RF modules though, are still popular and Synoxo has managed to incredibly shrink them to a few millimeters; while still retaining their […]
Asus unveiling their own version of a single board computer got a lot of press coverage. A competitor to the Raspberry Pi backed by a big corporation? Sounds exciting right? The benchmarks are not out yet because it simply is very difficult to get your hands on a board as […]
The Arduino Pro Mini is one of the lesser known board as it isn’t designed by the official Arduino team. Instead, it is designed by hobbyist shop Sparkfun and is available on their website for $9.95. On this review, we will take a look at the Pro Mini clone from […]
Asus recently unveiled the Tinker Board, a single board computer with a Raspberry Pi form factor packed with really good hardware: Rockchip RK3288 ARM Cortex-A17 quad-core processor Mali-T764 graphics chip HDMI 2.0 port to support 4K resolution 2GB of RAM 802.11b/g/n WiFi Bluetooth 4.0 Gigabit Ethernet 3.5mm Audio jack connection […]
The previous version of the LED sine wave has been completely revamped to get rid of all floating point operations. I’ve also taken the time to pack it inside a class so that it can be easily reused by anyone. This is the effect you will obtain: Please go ahead […]
You might have seen a new section “Arduino” has popped up in the menu. This menu will host various resources and tutorial for Arduino and Arduino compatible hardware (such as the ATtiny series); but for now I would like to share with you a simple trick that will light up […]
I want to dive in the great world of wireless chips, and I’ll be doing reviews and post code samples about common chips, but for now we play the waiting game as everything comes from China. It shouldn’t be too long though, as it’s already been shipped and it’s gone […]
