Need to control a pneumatic cylinder? We use low voltage compressed air cylinders at work, and that gave me the idea for some cool steampunk style pneumatic controls. The Arduino can use a relay to activate the solenoid on the

One of my goals for the weather station and energy monitor is to be able to access it remotely. The best way I figure is the universal front end, a web browser. this requires me to interface a ethernet interface,

Although this project is for a firewood processor, it would work similarly for a diesel generator. A Arduino processor controls a servo connected to the throttle linkage. Run the VW (or Mercedes, Kubota, etc.) Diesel engine on used filtered vegetable

One of our planned projects is a home weather station. We have looked at various temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure sensors. I have been considering how to make a self emptying rain sensor, and wind speed and direction sensor (important

If your interests lie in the robotics arena, the Arduino is a good choice for you. The folks at the Robot Shop have a good selection of resources to introduce the newcomer, or further educate the experienced robotics nut, especially

Arduino Bricks are the Lego’s of the Arduino world. Plug and play modules of various sensors with a special shield (piggy back module) that sits on top of the Arduino. These consist of switches, sensors, relays, and many more modules
