In this guide we will be exploring the SunFounder Ultimate Sensor kit with Arduino Uno R4 Minima. This is a great starter kit for beginners. This kit comes with an Arduino and numerous sensors to use withit. Read More...

This tutorial takes you through all the steps to connecting the APA102 RGB LED strip to the Arduino. We also guide you through the process of writing some code to be able to control the LED strip. It's an excellent project if you love playing with lights. Read More...

Learn how to set up the ADXL345 accelerometer with the Arduino. It's a cool sensor that will be handy in quite a few tutorials, especially ones where movement is involved. We make use of an Adafruit library, which makes this tutorial significantly easier. Read More...

In this tutorial, we take you through how to set up the Adafruit VEML6075 UV Sensor with the Arduino. This sensor is super affordable and perfect for checking the UV index. You can build on this tutorial to have other sensors to work alongside it. Read More...

Learn how to connect the DHT22 sensor to the Arduino Uno. This sensor is perfect if you need to collect both the temperature and humidity. We also go through all the code that you will need to gather the correct data. It's a relatively simple tutorial. Read More...

In this tutorial, we make use of an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor to measure distances. It's effective at measuring distances up to roughly 400 centimetres or 157 inches. It's the perfect sensor to implement in your next Arduino project. Read More...

In this tutorial, I will be taking a look a connecting a force sensing resistor (FSR) to the Arduino Uno. Using an FSR is a great way to detect pressure on a surface. At the end of the tutorial, I have some suggestions on how this can be implemented in a full project. Read More...

This tutorial goes through the steps to making your own Arduino web server. It's a straightforward process that covers the process of getting it up and running. I will also cover some core concepts such as using Ajax to update rather than refreshing the page over and over. Read More...

In this Arduino LCD tutorial, I will take you through the steps to connecting a simple 16×2 LCD to the Arduino. This small screen is fantastic for displaying data from the Arduino itself. For example, the temperature or debug information. Read More...

In this tutorial, we will look at how to set up the Arduino DS18b20 temperature sensor and anything else you need to know about it. We will take you through which libraries you need, how to code, and how to build the circuit. Read More...

In this Arduino light sensor tutorial, I will go through the basics of setting up a photoresistor, so you can easily detect changes in light. You will only need a few pieces of equipment to complete this project, such as an LDR, resistors, and LEDs. Read More...

In this tutorial, I will go through the steps to set up the Arduino serial monitor so you can debug and interact with a program running on the Arduino. To demonstrate the serial monitor, we will setup a simple circuit as well. Read More...

In this tutorial, I build a simple Arduino battery tester. This project is perfect for anyone looking to check the capacity of almost any sort of battery. The battery is barebones but can easily be extended with some knowledge of Arduino and circuitry. Read More...

In this tutorial, we will be building a simple Arduino motion sensor that uses a PIR sensor to detect motion. You can extend this project to activate lights, send notifications, or use a speaker. It is an excellent tutorial for familiarising yourself with sensors and Arduino. Read More...

In this tutorial, we will make our very own Arduino dice circuit. This circuit is a simple project and is great for introducing yourself to more of the basics of Arduino. You will need some LEDs, resistors, and a button for this project. Read More...

This tutorial will look at building an Arduino traffic light circuit. This project will use some code and a straightforward circuit involving three LEDs. It is the perfect project if you want to introduce yourself to the basics of Arduino. Read More...
