We’ve previously covered how cool automatic blinds are. And we know the Amazon Echo is pretty awesome. This hack puts them together to use an Alexa voice command to open and close your blinds. DIY ...

Arduino enthusiasts looking for a new project to keep them busy this weekend might be interested in how to use the Arduino IoT Cloud and Amazon Alexa to interact with your sensors. A new project ...

Brushless motors are ubiquitous in RC applications and robotics, but are usually driven with low-cost motor controllers that have to be controlled with RC-style PWM signals and don’t allow for much ...

Maker, developers and hobbyists that enjoy building Arduino platform based projects might be interested in a new Arduino Motor Shield called the Arc controller which has been created by Arc Robotics.

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are standard fare in low-precision, speedy RC applications. The control schemes needed to run them slowly or precisely go deep into motor theory and might put these motors ...

This is the first part exploring the motor control shield that I designed for the project where I was doing 3D Printer Filament Measuring with Arduino. The DC motor portion of the project is based on ...
