Scott Harden built his own opto-isolated laser controller and wrote a post on his blog detailing its assembly: My goal was to utilize a free hardware output line to signal to a device that I build to modulate the laser in a special way. This way there would be no modification to any...

FarmBot is an open-source CNC farming machine designed for small-scale precision food production. Similar to any CNC milling machine, FarmBot hardware employs linear guides in the X, Y and Z directions for tooling. FarmBot tools include: seeder, watering nozzle, camera, weeder and...

Ahmad Al-Shalabi and Bassma Karbouj show us how to control a DC fan using easy to find components. The fan works when temperature reach into pre-specified threshold. The purpose of this project is creating a cooling system by controlling in a DC fan in a simple way without using...

One Channel Infra-Red Remote and receiver with onboard Relay provides normally open and normally closed output. The project based on PIC12F683 Microcontroller from Microchip , TSOP1738 used as Infra-Red receiver. Micro-controller decodes the RC5 serial data coming from TSOP1738 and...
