The advent of microcontroller modules like the Arduino opened up ability to build and program interactive objects to a whole generation of makers. Today these modules make it simple to control ...

AC loads are everywhere around us because at least home appliances are supplied with the mains power. Therefore, we always face the situations that we want to have full control (dimming) over an AC ...

This article will help you build a simple Arduino-based DCC system. Growing up in the 1980s I was living the dream. I had an HO layout on a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood in my parents' basement in Reading, ...

Since you probably don't use most of the buttons on your remote control, why not make them work for other things? This project shows you how to use an Arduino to decode the signal from a remote and ...

Diving into the world of DIY electronics can be quite daunting and overwhelming. There's the matter of picking the right components to use, learning the hand tools, and understanding the software.

Electrical power systems engineers need practical methods for predicting solar output power under varying environmental conditions of a single panel. By integrating an Arduino-based real-time data ...
