This week we attach a shift register to an Arduino to demonstrate how to use a shift register to multiply the number of outputs that you can have on an Arduino.This is our first week on using shift registers and we go over the basics of sending the serial…

This week we take an RFID reader and attach it to an arduino. We first show you how the RFID reader works by sending in the TAGID on the RFID Tag. Then we are going to take our project from episode 11 that takes keypad input and attach the…
This week we pick up where we left off from last week and remote control a servo wirelessly using Zigbee. We use the digi.com xbee module on 2 arduinos. We even do a little on the fly coding to remote control the servo in small steps.You will be amazed…
This week start the introduction to wireless communication using Zigbee with the Xbee radios from digi.com. Downloads HD Apple HD Apple SD Audio MP3 Android…
This week on Let’s Make It we have an Arduino control a servo like you find in model airplanes and cars. In the process of showing you how to control a servo we also introduce the concept of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and Pulse Position Modulation (PPM). Downloads…
This week we attach a keypad to an Arduino and show you how you can easily accept input. Then we build a combination door lock with that same keypad. For both projects we also use the serial LCD that we learned in Episode 5. Downloads…
This week we do step 1 of our on-air light. We make the arduino check the status of the live Ustream channel.To do this we use an ethernet shield to poll the Ustream API to check the status of our strem. We learn how to setup the ethernet shield…
This week on Let’s Make It we build a random dice roller. We learn how to use randomization in our Sketches. This project will randomly roll the die between 15 and 25 rolls before landing on the final number. Downloads HD Apple…
This week we create a working stoplight with an Arduino. And we go so much further than just blinking lights. We have 2 stop lights and sensors to know when a car is waiting.Also, in this episode we introduce state tables and a new structure that we have not…
This week we teach the Arduino Morse Code. We send your messages via Morse Code. Downloads HD Apple HD Apple SD Audio MP3 Android Send SOS using Morse Code /*############### SEND SOS IN…
