And another Arduino shield with something on it. This could be particularly interesting for beginners. A four-digit 7-segment display, 4 LEDs, a buzzer, a potentiometer, a few buttons – what more do you need? If you have too much money, you can also populate the APC220 port and flash via remote USB. How nice it is to have a new...

As the name suggests, acceleration sensors measure the acceleration of a body, for example a car. Modern sensors measure acceleration in all three dimensions (X, Y, Z, direction). The speed of a body can be calculated from the acceleration and thus, with limitations (prone to errors), a position can be determined. Uses: aircraft construction, drones and similar, navigation, automotive industry, smartphones, satellites. Functionality: The…

An electronic compass determines the direction of north, similar to a magnetic compass. Most electronic compasses do this not only in the X/Y direction but also three-dimensionally in the X/Z and Y/Z directions. Uses: Aircraft construction, drones and similar; Navigation; Automotive industry; Smartphones; Satellites. How it works: An electronic compass is also called a magnetometer. It is based on the Hall effect. When a current-carrying...

I wanted to understand what a gyroscope can do, what it does, and where it helps. Here are my collected findings. A traditional gyroscope measures an object's orientation in space, using a rotating „inertial“ mass. Modern electronic gyroscopes work on a different principle, for example, with two piezo elements. However, they fulfil the same purpose. Applications include aircraft construction, drones...

Over lunch with colleagues, an idea struck me. The two of them play chess during their lunch break and to make things a bit more exciting, I suggested a chess clock. This is how the idea of creating a chess clock consisting of two displays for the respective time, two buttons to start and stop the time, and a…

The Sunfounder remote control is powered using an Arduino Nano and an nRF24101 board. It has screw terminals for power, a power switch, and two slots for the aforementioned modules. For control, it uses a two-axis joystick, similar to those found in PS4 controllers. The joystick is analogue. Two potentiometers (variable resistors) …
