The Z80 is one of those old CPUs that is both obtainable and easy to work with — at least in some versions. [Doctor Volt] put together what may be the simplest possible setups to get a working Z80 ...

A manual providing up-to-date hardware information for the Arduino Mega 2560. The Arduino Mega 2560 is an upgrade to the popular Arduino Uno board, providing more pins, serial ports and memory.

If you plan on building your own motorized camera mount, a 3D printer can definitely be of help. But in this case, [dslrdiy] didn’t use it for printing out parts — finding himself with little use for ...

Some examples written in C++, that use DC motors (L298N), IR and ultrasonic sensors for solving some tasks with Arduino Mega 2560.

Arduino enables the fast development of embedded projects. Playing around with Arduino boards is fun, but not the most efficient way to expand your knowledge. Elektor has therefore bundled two of the ...

A six degreees of freedom (6DOF) robot arm able to locate objects and pick them up. Uses an Arduino Mega with a Ramps 1.4 shield to control 5 stepper motors, 2 servos and some switces. A Raspberry ...

Stepper motors are mostly used for precise motion control of structures or axes for a distance. But what happens if we want to control time? We can answer this question with the bare motor rotation, ...

Arduino is so much about what is made with Arduino boards that we hardly spare a thought for the boards themselves. Well, Arduino cares, and they've just gone about redesigning their base model, now ...

Abstract: Robot arm is designed to facilitate human work in industrial fields such as moving and grouping objects to a predetermined place. In this study, a prototype robotic arm for moving goods was ...
