[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors.

Arduino boards are able to read inputs – light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message – and turn it into an output – activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing ...

Aside from the Uno and the ultrasonic sensor, you also need a PHPoC Shield to connect the board to the internet and a power supply to power up your Arduino. Throughout your workday, there may be ...

designed for use with existing open platform MCU boards such as Arduino, and mbed. The SensorShield-EVK-003 is the latest sensor evaluation kit offered by ROHM. The updated kit bundles 8 ...

Because of the affordability and seeming ubiquity of the Arduino platform, they have been hard at work this last month trying to get their Geiger counter sensor board for an Arduino out the door.

but getting an Arduino starter kit is more convenient. Most already come complete with the UNO board and a bunch of components like LEDs, a temperature sensor, a DC motor, a servo motor ...

The primary purpose of the Arduino board is to interface with sensors and devices, so it’s great for hardware projects in which you simply want things to respond to various sensor readings and ...

Arduino boards are largely based on Atmel’s MCUs ... goes deeper into the Internet of Things market, with a number of sensor devices already using its microcontrollers. Atmel supports ZigBee ...

The Touch Board is based around an Arduino Leonardo board that also sports ... chip that allows the Touch Board to act as a capacitive sensor. The Bare Conductive booth at Maker Faire had several ...
