Here are some of the many different things I've found on the net. For a complete list of cool Arduino projects I've found just follow this link. Some of the projects listed below don't use the Arduino, but they all could. Soccer Bot Originally written in Spanish and translated by Google. This one uses the Arduino as the brains for a robot. It looks very doable. Perpetual Motion MachineUse the Arduino and electromagnets to create a pendulum that never stops. Keyless Entry systemIf you don't know the correct way to knok, you can't get in. POV with ArduinoPersistence of vision machine.(Here's his refined code) Make SoundCool synthesizer type project. Use the accelerometer and such with your Arduino. Could be used for a CPR trainer or maybe a running/walking pace setter (if you slow down or speed up it could let you know) Control Arduino with a TV Remote ControlThis will take some tweaking, depending on the remote you have Use the Arduino as a TV Remote ControlPretty easy, but will take some tweaking. Read data from a ServoNot just a motor, it can function as a sensor. Music/SoundCollection of sound/music projects Cool little robot that drives around and drums on stuff. Control the ComputerUse sensors on the Arduino to interface with programs running on the computer Better Temperature SensorA much better way to measure temperature. Trigger a different deviceThis one triggers a camera to take a picture, but the same sort of thing could work for other devices as well. Here's a similar one used for high speed photography. Use an old MouseI'm not talking about Mickey. Here's a way to use an optical mouse with your Arduino. |
