    USB Host Shield Miscommunication with Arduino Mega/UNO

    I am trying to control two independent robots simultaneously using two Arduino Mega with USB host shield and xbox 360 wireless controllers (2.4 Ghz dongle). But I sometimes face the issue where the xbox controller disconnects and connects to the wrong host shield arduino mega. Is there any way...

    Conflicting timers and/or interrupts in Arduino Servo Library and USBHostShield Library

    Hello, I am using the Arduino Servo library to actuate two BLDC motors and ADK USB Host Shield to control them using a USB dongle controller (XBOX). But I am facing issues particularly in calibrating the BLDCs and lose the host shield. The most probable problem I could think of is there are some...

    Arduino pin getting input with just a physical touch

    So I have a switch connected via two wires to a two pin plug which is supposed to go in a two pin socket. One pin of the socket goes to 5V and the other goes to a digital I/O in the Arduino + GND (via 10K). When the switch is pressed and the digital arduino pin goes high, stuff is supposed to...

    Arduino Based Automatic Fan Speed controller using LM35 temperature sensor

    This project is a temperature monitoring and fan control system. It uses an LM35 temperature sensor to measure the ambient temperature, and an Arduino microcontroller to read the sensor data and control three 12V fans. The system has three LEDs that light up in different colors depending on the...

    What is the best way to make load cells & HX711 amplifiers useable for reversible prototyping (no/little soldering)?

    I'm using 4 x 50kg load cells and an Arduino Uno R3 for an interactive music project where a dancer will perform on top of a stage with each sensor under the corners of a board 'stage'. I need to monitor each cell individually as these values will be sent to Max/MSP (an object-based coding...

    Pocket Geiger Type 5 on a Rocket Flight

    Hello, I am building a cubesat that will be launched aboard a rocket, inside a locker in the pressurized crew capsule. One of the onboard experiments calls for radiation level sensing. I see that the Pocket Geiger Type 5 (SEN-14209) needs to remain still, otherwise it will give false readings...

    What H Bridge driver, chip or circuit can be used to switch polarity of a peltier

    Hello all, hope you're doing well. I have a peltier (12 V and 7 Amps) and I want to control its temperature using Arduino. I was using the N channel dual MOSFET module and it worked just fine except that it does not switch polarities. I have read about H bridges but still not sure and it is...

    Ultrasonic sensor - problem with distance measurement

    Hello Here I am again with the car, but now there is no problem with control :). I just added an ultrasonic sensor to the front of the car, with the fact that if the distance is less than 20 cm, it should stop. When the car is running, it works once or twice, but on the third attempt, the car...

    How to send sensor signal to 5-10km?

    Now I detect motion with my Arduino Nano and 3pin motion detector: When detector triggers, I need to send signal (distance at least 5km) to another Arduino Nano and catch it. As far as I understand, 433Mhz is the optimal frequency for this. Please suggest me what should I use? Which circuit...

    Arduino PID for propeller pendulum to balance horizontally

    Dear all, this hobby project I setup is using an encoder to make the stick to be 90 degress which is at 1500 steps (0 degrees=perfectly horizontal using PID control). My encoder counter code is obtained from video here and I have tested it which works perfectly well. Since this encoder is 1200...

    Controlling a light with a switch and an arduino

    I have a project where I need to make a person counter for a room. I have two PIR sensors on either side of the door, depending on which one gets set off first, it means that a person is entering or leaving. The code for this part works well enough that the counter is incremented when someone...
