An Arduino is a much better choice than a Raspberry Pi for tasks that require real-time input and responses. While a Pi can ...

Basically, the controller is a glove with an embedded Arduino microcontroller and accelerometer. The accelerometer uses sensors to detect the motion and speed of your hand, while the connected ...

While PIR sensors can be used with Arduino and other microcontroller boards, those best-suited for hobby use are smart enough to perform simple tasks without any programming.

We don’t have much personal experience with DOF hardware, but this Arduino library which reads and compensates for three-axis magnetometer and accelerometer data looks very impressive. It sho… ...

If you've always wanted to try to build an Arduino project, this may be a great way to start. Matt Williamson built a tiny, Arduino-based motion sensor that will SMS you when something moves by ...

The controller consists of a battery-powered Arduino MKR1000 with WiFi and an MPU6050 accelerometer. Held in the hand, the controller streams accelerometer data to an external PC, capturing the ...

When everything’s plugged in, this is how your Arduino, motion sensor, and power relay should look. Jeremy S. Cook. Plug the male-to-female jumper wires into the motion sensor pins.

A tiny motion sensor is the latest go-go accessory in Gadget Land. — -- Entrepreneur James Park's new gizmo can monitor sleep habits and daily exercise, automatically. The $99 Fitbit Tracker ...

Accelerometers are increasingly ubiquitous in consumer devices and industrial applications, largely as a result of the advances in MEMS manufacturing techniques that have allowed the sensors to become ...
