Experience — or at least education — often makes a big difference to having a successful project. For example, if you didn’t think about it much, you might think it is simple to control the ...

We’ve been hiding away in air-conditioned comfort to wait out the hot weather afflicting most of the US right now. Luckily we’re keeping busy with the great links coming into our tips box. [Brett] ...

Abstract: This paper presents the development of a Arduino based Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) temperature control system using an Arduino UNO, R-type thermocouple, and solid-state relay (SSR ...

ThermaPID is a temperature control system implemented on Arduino using a DHT11 sensor, a brushless pc fan (5V 0.4A), and a PID controller. The fan speed is automatically adjusted via PWM to maintain a ...

This book is about using both the Raspberry Pi 4 and the Arduino Uno in PID-based automatic control applications. The book starts with basic theory of the control systems and feedback control. Working ...

A few weeks ago, I installed an automatic water heater switch to my bathroom, but it was a crude device. What I really want to do is design a universal heater driver. That basic idea can be adapted to ...

What Are PID Controllers? PID control is the most commonly used control algorithm, used extensively in industrial, process, and commercial applications and has been universally accepted as the easiest ...

Stepper motors are a mainstay in precision control systems, valued for their simple open-loop operation and high torque at low speeds. Commonly found in CNC machines, 3D printers, and robotics, they ...

Arduino libraries, like libraries for other programming languages, help easily extend the range of functions available to users in the standard integrated development environment (IDE). They are ...
