Attendance Logger
Virtual Color Mixer
This example demonstrates how to send multiple values from the Arduino board to the computer. The readings from three potentiometers are used to set the red, green, and blue components of the background color of a Processing sketch.
Hardware Required
- Arduino or Genuino Board
- 3 Analog Sensors ...
Switch Case 2: A second switch-case example, showing how to take different actions based on the characters received in the serial port
An if statement allows you to choose between two discrete options, TRUE or FALSE. When there are more than two options, you can use multiple if statements, or you can use the switch statement. Switch allows you to choose between several discrete options.
This tutorial shows you how to use ...
While Statement Conditional: How to use a while loop to calibrate a sensor while a button is being read.
Sometimes you want everything in the program to stop while a given condition is true. You can do this using a [while loop](http://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/While). This example shows how to use a while loop to [calibrate](http://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial ...

A data type in a programming language is a set of data with values having predefined characteristics. Examples of data types are: integer, floating point unit number, character, string, and pointer. Usually, a limited number of such data types come built into a language. The language usually specifies the range ...

NeoPixels are fun and amazing. In my project I connected 4 of the AdaFruit NeoPixel - 16 RGBW Leds together. What caught my attention and curiosity was that you can control each of these RGBW Leds using just one wire.This feat is accomplished with a very timing-specific protocol. Since the ...

Received this Learning Lab Kit on a Shield for Arduino from Programming Electronics Academy today and am very pleased.
The Learning Lab Kit on a Shield for Arduino is meant to help you save time – it basically pre-populates common circuits for you.
Circuits that you might already have learned quite ...

I built the Arduino GPS Clock by Tony DiCola over at Adafruit. The clock was very cool, setting it's time from the satellites, however, I soon started feeling like I was wasting my GPS shield by only using it to get time. So I decided to use the RGB ...

This is a really cool project that was originally on Make as a GPS Cat Tracker. Michael James, at the Programming Electronics Academy, put together an excellent 10 minute video showing you how easy it is to do this project.
Pretty cool huh? If you enjoyed that you may also ...
