The nice thing about building one of these tables from a kit is that the more difficult parts of the project have been completed (Electronic Design, PCBs made, etc.) but more importantly, you can fully customize the table to your liking. The photos that I posted above are of the version that I created, but […]

I happen to be part of the 5% that have the elusive awesome mother-in-law. For Christmas I wanted to make her an “antique radio” that is super simple to operate and that could play some “old time radio” type programming that she listened to when she was a young’n. However, this is neither an antique

I wanted to play around with something IR remote-controlled, so I decided to make a remote-control mood light. There were two parts to the project: making the remote and making the light. For the remote, I tore down a remote control for a floor fan, removing all its insides, and replacing it with mine. I

This is not as much an instructable as a record of how I made a school project. While repeating exactly what I did will probably not help y ou, this project can be modified to make almost any display more eye-catching. Step 1: Come up with an Idea I know this sounds stupid but it

Searching for a reliable wireless solution for your project can be a real pain if you’re not familiar with current wireless standards, data rates and reliability. The Xbee Modules that we will use in this article are widely available, use a very reliable wireless transmission protocol and have sufficient datarates for most hobby projects. This

In this instructable I am going to show you how to build a Star with 64 LEDs. The Star operates by itself but the operation mode can be changed when connecting it to a computer via a serial (RS232) interface. After reconfiguring the Star via the computer, the Star will use the new operating mode

WARNING: Some people try to build this with an optocoupler with zerocrossing coz ‘that is better’ right? Some are even told in electronics shops it is better to use such an optocoupler. WRONG. This will only work with a random fire optocoupler: NOT igniting at zerocrossing is the principle of this dimmer. Switching an AC

Make a very cheap, relatively easy to construct robot which will wake up any time you shine a desk lamp on it. There are no sensors on it, although I suppose the solar panel can be called a sensor. I plan on adding solar panels and another motor, and making it controlled by a PIC
