RAIN DROP SENSOR
A raindrop sensor, also known as a rain sensor or a rain detector, is a device used to detect the presence of rain or water droplets on its surface. These sensors are commonly used in various applications such as weather monitoring, smart irrigation systems, automotive rain-sensing wipers, and more. Here’s a detailed documentation of raindrop… Continue reading RAIN DROP SENSOR
LDR Sensor
An LDR (Light Dependent Resistor), also known as a photoresistor, is a type of passive electronic component that changes its resistance in response to changes in light intensity. LDRs are commonly used in various applications where light sensing is required, such as automatic lighting control, photography, security systems, and more. Here’s some detailed documentation about… Continue reading LDR Sensor
Arduino programming using Visual Studio Code.
The Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is a popular platform for programming Arduino microcontrollers. While it has numerous advantages, it also comes with some disadvantages. Here are some of the disadvantages of the Arduino IDE: Lack of Modern UI/UX: The user interface and user experience (UI/UX) of the Arduino IDE are often criticized for being… Continue reading Arduino programming using Visual Studio Code.
Arduino – Not detecting Arduino board.
If your board does not appear on a port in Arduino IDE………………… Ensure you’ve connected your board with a working data USB cable. Check that your device is powered. One or more LEDs should be lit. In earlier versions of Arduino IDE 2, the Tools > Port menu option would only be displayed if at… Continue reading Arduino – Not detecting Arduino board.
FLEX SENSOR-A Brief Overview
A flex sensor is a type of electronic component that changes its resistance when it’s bent or flexed. It’s typically made of a flexible substrate with conductive material applied on it. When the sensor bends, the distance between the conductive elements changes, altering the resistance of the sensor. This change in resistance can be measured… Continue reading FLEX SENSOR-A Brief Overview
ARDUINO
Arduino is an open-source hardware and software platform that enables you to create interactive electronic projects. Arduino boards use a variety of microprocessors and controllers. The boards are equipped with sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that may be interfaced to various expansion boards (‘shields’) or breadboards (for prototyping) and other circuits. The… Continue reading ARDUINO
Arduino: The Open-Source Hardware Platform That Changed the World
The Arduino project began in 2005 as a tool for students at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea (IDII) in Ivrea, Italy. The goal of the project was to create a low-cost and easy-to-use programmable platform for interactive art design projects. The project was started by Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, David Mellis, Gianluca Martino, and Tom… Continue reading Arduino: The Open-Source Hardware Platform That Changed the World
