Arduino boards get a Bluetooth Smart dev kit from Nordic Semiconductor. The SDK is compatible with a range of Arduino, ChipKIT shields that employ the nRF8001 Bluetooth Smart connectivity device.

In this article I will add some simple Arduino LED projects starting with basic ones like how to turn on an LED, blinking, and more. Every step will have the code, the schematic, photos of the project ...

[DastardlyLabs] saw a video about converting a PS/2 keyboard to Bluetooth and realized he didn’t have any PS/2 keyboards anymore. So he pulled the same trick with a USB keyboard. Along the way, he ...

An Arduino can be used to test the life of any battery with less than 5 volts, Boxall says. So, for a quick way to see how much juice your AAA, AA, C, or D batteries have left, build this ...

Arduino is a network for open-source electronics focused on a technology that is easy to use. By giving a list of instructions to the microcontroller on the board, you can tell your board what to do.

Anyone who has ever hacked around in their PC will have been hit with an urge to take their tinkering to the next level and create a custom-built device, but few actually try - believing such things ...

While it’s great to look at professional maker projects that use motion tracking cameras or giant 3D prints that break the bank, it’s also nice to look at simple Arduino builds too. This project takes ...

In order to use the Arduino IDE - or, at the very least, in order to use it to actually achieve something - you're going to need some Arduino hardware, and there's plenty of choice. The most obvious ...
