This Arduino-based project simulates a two-floor elevator control system. The elevator uses IR sensors to detect the current floor and a single button to switch between floors. A seven-segment display ...

We’ve featured loads of IR Arduino projects and they are all exciting and unique. The projects spring from a specific need or problem where a custom infrared remote control is the solution. [Rick’s] ...

This project involves the design and development of a miniature remote-controlled car powered by an Arduino microcontroller, enhanced with advanced smart features like emergency braking and infrared ...

If you’ve ever needed a short-range remote control for a project, [firestorm] is here to help you out. He put up a great tutorial on using an IR remote to do just about anything with everyone’s ...

Have you ever wondered how speed guns measure the speed of moving vehicles or how an athlete's sprint speed is recorded? Normally these speed sensors work with radar or laser technology to bounce back ...

I made this Arduino project that allows to turn ON and OFF LEDs using a cheap IR remote control as a preparation for the next big step: disassemble my girlfriend’s chinese LED lamp and replace its ...

Photoelectric sensors detect objects and surface changes using variations in optical properties. Each sensor includes a light emitter and a receiver, with most relying on infrared light. In optical ...

"Below are a couple of sketches for Arduino Ethernet: the first can be used to share sensor data with Pachube and grab remote sensor data, so you can effectively have both "local" and "remote" sensors ...

[Photo: Randy Sarafan] If you ever bought yourself or your kids a remote-control car, you’ll know how quickly people get bored of them, leaving the toy tossed to one side. However, if you were looking ...
