Mod Your Goodknight Gold Flash
I’m sure there’re a lot of electronic gadgets in your house that can be recycled. The good news is most of them can be used again or for another purpose. So, don’t just throw those […]
Arduino Traffic Lights (v2) – Crosswalk Button
I finally got around to testing this concept – adding a crosswalk button to the previously published Arduino Traffic Lights project I must admit, I was surprised to find a compact traffic light controller module […]
Arduino Analog Sensor – Read & Display
Arduino provides a number of analog inputs which enables us to measure parameters such as voltage, current, resistance, light, temperature, and so on in the analog arena. In this post, we’ll look at how to […]
20mm LDR & Raspberry Pi Pico – Quick Guide
In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface a big photoresistor with Raspberry Pi Pico. Since the Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller provides analog ports, we can easily do a number of projects using common […]
