On market, there is an infrared thermometer to use measuring human temperature. In this project, we will show how to make the same one with Arduino

DIY Raspberry pi caseToroid coil winding Machine by Arduino
Today i found great project on Youtube, that's called Toroid coil winding machine from youtuber Mr. Innovative
Toroid coil is a kind of transformer that has ferrite core in circle shape. So, winding copper wire for it is always a challenged for human. Today, most of toroid coil is done by machine which not cheap. Surprisingly, a youtuber can make this kind machine in easy way

In this instruction, i will show how to make Nixie clock with Arduino by circuit which is as much simply as possible. All of them is put in MDF wood case. After completion, the clock is looked like a product: good looking and compact firmly.

Neon Lamp Player at 150VDC
This is my first experiment with neon lamp. The lamp also have same principle with Nixie tube, which also need about 150VDC to light on

How to make art clock (in 4 steps)
It takes me about 1 week to make this clock. In order to gain meaning for the project, i want to share the works to you, hope it can help you if you intend to make same one

Arduino SD card data logger to Excel
This tutorial shows how to make data logger by Arduino & SD card module
It will read data from real time module DS3231 (real time, temperature), then save data into text file which is latter imported into Excel file
Important thing of data logger is to know real time of recorded data, so real time DS3231 is used to read real time (link here to know how to use DS3231)
In this example, Arduino will read temperature (also from DS3231) and record in text file. Microsoft Excel will help us to import data from text file, from here we can draw a graph.
Hardware need to purchase
1. Arduino Pro Mini
2. Real time moduel DS3231
3. SD card module SPI
4. Micro SD card 8GB (with adapter)
| 1. Arduino Pro Mini |
| 2. Real time module DS3231 |
| 3. SD card module SPI |
| 4. Micro SD card 8GB |
Step 1. Arduino SD card schematic
Step 2. Arduino SD card data logger code
#include <SPI.h> #include <SD.h> #include <Wire.h> #include "DS3231.h" RTClib RTC; DS3231 Clock; int Year; int Month; int Date; int Hour; int Minute; int Second; int tempC; int interval; int Minute_last; File myFile; void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); Wire.begin(); //for DS3231 while (!Serial) { ; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only } delay(2000); //afer reset Arduino, 2s to take out SD Serial.print("Initializing SD card..."); if (!SD.begin(10)) { Serial.println("initialization failed!"); } else { Serial.println("initialization done."); } } void loop() { interval = 1; //interval to write data DateTime now = RTC.now(); Year = now.year(); Month = now.month(); Date = now.day(); Hour = now.hour(); Minute = now.minute(); Second = now.second(); tempC = Clock.getTemperature(); if ((Minute % interval == 0)&(Minute_last!=Minute)) { write_data(tempC); //write data Minute_last = Minute; } } void write_data(int temperature_input) { myFile = SD.open("test.txt", FILE_WRITE); // if the file opened okay, write to it: if (myFile) { myFile.print(Year); myFile.print("/"); myFile.print(Month); myFile.print("/"); myFile.print(Date); myFile.print(" "); myFile.print(Hour); myFile.print(":"); myFile.print(Minute); myFile.print("_temperature_"); myFile.println(temperature_input); myFile.close(); Serial.println("Write file successful!"); //print out COM Port } else { Serial.println("error opening test.txt"); } }
What the code do is: Initialize the card, if any failure from here, it will show "initialization failed!". I got experience with it when the card 16GB can't be recognized by Arduino, but it works when replace new card 8GB.
Then the code read temperature from DS3231 and write data to file test.txt. It will inform out to COM screen the result of data writing activity.
In this code, Arduino will write data every 1 minutes (it is controlled by variable "interval", if change it into 5, then it will record data every 5 minutes)
The text file test.txt then will import to Excel by import data function

Arduino - radar project
Radar project uses ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04 (to measure distance objects) which is attached in servo motor SG90 that will rotate 0 to 120 degree. Result data is sent to computer by COM port and show in HMI by Visual Studio C++/CLI
