Have your own project idea?
New to microcontroller projects? Our XC3900 Duinotech Learning Kit has everything you need to get started with Arduino.
Can’t find the remote control? Don’t worry! Clapping lets you switch devices on and off with this simple project. You may have seen it on TV; now you can build it yourself.
This project is all about creating a simple game to test your memory.
Let the power of the sun encourage you to get out of bed each morning with this curtain/blinds opener.
Infrared (IR) remote controls make life easier. However, each controlled device typically needs its own remote control, making it awkward when you have many devices. The IR Helper can simplify things by emulating different remote controls.
Here’s a little project that isn’t hard to build, but really has unlimited uses.
Looking for a new conversation starter in your home? Build our Game of Life wall thermostat using new XC4390 addressable RGB light strip.
There's not a lot to construct in this project - it's just an UNO and LCD Touch Shield, but if you want a simple project that looks slick then it's a good place to start.
Pump up the Jam with this beat bar! Get a visual display that bounces in tune with the music.
Here's a handy little project that uses a little known feature of LEDs, and also has a laser in it, which makes it even cooler.
Arduino® is an open source hardware and software prototyping environment, but what does this mean?
This is a great little tool for the green thumbs.
With this digital compass design, you can add an easy-to-read compass display to your off-road vehicle or build a handheld digital compass powered by a battery bank. It uses two modules and three pushbuttons, so it’s easy and quick to build.
Control your ROS projects with a simple to build controller
In this project we built a current meter using the AC712 current sensor, instead of just displaying or reporting current measurements we made the project a little more interesting by calculating power consumption (which is just POWER = CURRENT x VOLTAGE), and reporting the power consumption via email.
Combine a micro:bit XC4320 and breakout board XC4330 to create an electronic christmas tree using up to 12 LEDs and your own imagination.
Many off-the-shelf modules have header pins that can be difficult to work with, whether they are facing the right way or are the wrong configuration (vertical instead of horizontal, vice versa.)
We saw a version of this project in The Shed Magazine, and thought it would be perfect to build using our duinotech parts.
A handy little tool that can help you out if you work with LED’s a lot, especially if you are always trying to work out the right resistor to make them work.
