In this project, I will show you How to Make a Smart Dustbin using Arduino, where the lid of the dustbin will automatically open when you approach with trash. The other important components used to make this Smart Dustbin are an HC-04 Ultrasonic Sensor and an SG90 TowerPro Servo Motor. Introduction Dustbins (or Garbage bins, […]
How to Burn Bootloader on ATmega328 using Arduino UNO?
In this project, I will show you how to burn bootloader on ATmega328 Microcontroller. Using this method, you can use your ATmega328 Microcontroller as a standalone on a custom design or PCB or simply burn bootloader on ATmega328 (as well as you can upload the code). Introduction If you are viewing this project, then you […]
Arduino Wattmeter – Voltage, Current and Power Measurement
In this project, I will show you how to build an Arduino Wattmeter, a device that can be used to measure the power consumed by a load. In addition to the Wattmeter, this circuit can also act as a Voltmeter and Ammeter to measure voltage and current. Introduction Measuring Voltage, Current and subsequently the Power […]
How to make an Arduino based Piano – Piezo Buzzer
In this fun DIY project, I will show you how to make an Arduino based Piano. It is a simple project made using Arduino UNO, few push buttons and a Piezo Buzzer. A special feature of this project is that Arduino will record the last played set of tones and repeat those tones like a […]
Auto Intensity Control of Street Lights using Arduino
In this project, I will show you how to design and build a simple but effective circuit called Auto Intensity Control of Street Lights using Arduino. Since the concept of this project is to consumption of energy, using LEDs as the Street Lights would be the obvious choice. Introduction Street Lights have become an essential […]
