This project shows how to connect an LCD screen to an Arduino Mega 2560 and use potentiometers (knobs) to adjust the screen’s contrast and control an extra function, like brightness. Explaining the ...

This project uses an Arduino, a joystick module, and an LCD display to simulate simple directional control of a point (or cursor) on the screen. How it works: A single character or dot is displayed on ...

The most popular display system widely used in Arduino projects is the liquid crystal display (LCD). LCD displays consists primarily of two sheets of polarized glass plates with a thin layer of liquid ...

As promised in the first part of this article, now it is time to see in detail how we can use the Alphanumeric LCD Display in our Arduino sketches. The idea beside this project is to give a simple ...

This module will investigate creating an interactive side-scrolling game using an Arduino. It will also provide experience with advanced usage of the 16x2 LCD screen and its scrolling capabilities.

The LCD itself is fairly responsive — but you can judge for yourself in the video below. The signature fading that so commonly accompanies screen refreshes on LCDs such as this one really adds ...

As we work on projects we’re frequently upgrading our tools. That basic soldering iron gives way to one with temperature control. The introductory 3D printer yields to one faster and more capable. One ...

If you're into robotics or electronics, you've likely come across Arduino—a small microcontroller that can control sensors and motors for nifty DIY projects. Like the Raspberry Pi, the Arduino is ...
