In the microcontroller era today, Arduino is more than just a tool to accomplish hobby tasks. There is actually a close relationship between microcontroller technology and home security, since you can ...

[IngGaro]’s latest project uses the full range of features available in this versatile microcontroller and has turned an Arduino Mega into a fully-functional home alarm system.

If like me you sometimes find it a little hard to get out of bed in the morning and would like to make it a little more fun, you may be interested in a new Arduino Nerf target alarm clock which has ...

In this experiment we are going to work with a sensor which is a resistor that depends on light. In a dark environment, the resistor will have a very high resistance. As photons (light) land on the ...

Alarm systems are complicated affairs. However, if you’re just looking to catch a sandwich thief at work or a cat spilling over all you water bottles, then Make shows you how to build an alarm system ...

Most ambient lights and sensors are designed to generate light to even out the picture on the front of the panel and reduce any light bleed from the back of an LCD display. This Arduino-powered ...
