Sometimes, projects start in somewhat unlikely places. This one began when [Istvan Raduly] scored a fake raven at a neighbor’s garage sale and decided to turn it into a thunder-and-lightning ...

Let me introduce another simple microcontroller-based do-it-yourself circuit that detects motion and excites a light source in a flash. The “snooper” here is an ordinary passive infrared (PIR) motion ...

It’s really hard to overstate how awesome ESP8266 development boards like the Wemos D1 Mini really are. For literally a couple of dollars you can get a decently powerful Wi-Fi enabled microcontroller ...

Working with multiple sensors on an Arduino can unlock richer, more interactive projects. By integrating motion, light, distance, and environmental readings, you can create systems that respond ...

Arduino’s open-source platform makes it easy for makers, students, and hobbyists to build powerful multi-sensor projects for ...
