Building a WLED matrix may sound daunting, but with the right tools and instructions, it’s actually quite simple. Here’s how you can get started: Step 1: Gather your hardware before you start assembling, you need to make sure you have all the necessary components. …

Diamonds are an engineer’s best friend. As well as their incredible hardness, diamonds have several physical properties that make them excellent for electrical devices — like light-emitting diodes (LEDs). One of the big challenges in electronics is continually trying to miniaturise devices: the smaller they become, the more heat is…

Ambient Light helps to work at night. When it’s dark and only the monitor is shining, it’s hard on the eyes. Personally, I enjoy working without overhead color, and this solution helps me to do that. I got this idea when I moved to a new place with a big…

This week’s project is quite a shocker. It’s the last mandatory project for this term. This will not be my last though. It’s web server’s turn now. This project has quite some programming included, but unfortunately, it’s the part where I don’t really excel. Project Start Date: 02 April 2023 Project…

Something I did a few (8) years ago on the Arduino to display two-digit numbers on a 8x8 LED matrix like one controlled my a max7219, this is an update to do the same in Micropython. Numbers have been defined to 3x5 pixels, so for a two-digit number it fits…

This week’s project is taking quite a turn. As well as the upcoming week’s project. Bluetooth’s on the roll now. No project is easy so I’m definitely not underestimating this one. Project Start Date: 25 March 2023 Project Finish Date: 26 March 2023 STARTING THE TOPIC This week, was, I don’t know, not…

Hi, it’s me again, Syafiq Ziyadul Arifin, also known as Safiq. In this fifth project (get the list here), I am excited to show you how to use another display, which is Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). Just so you know, LCD can be used to display information or messages in…

Do you want dynamic LED turn signals for your bicycle? Do you also want a dynamic brake light? Or maybe you want an emergency signal? And all that WITHOUT a microcontroller? (only logic circuits) Part one. Basic functionality If you drive a car, it’s very likely that you’ve come across an uncomfortable situation…

CupCarbon is a popular open-source simulator that models and simulates wireless sensor networks. One of the features of CupCarbon is the simulation of LEDs in a wireless sensor network. This article will provide an overview of LED simulation in CupCarbon, including how to set up and configure LED. …
