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 ...

This project implements a joystick controlled robot using an Arduino Mega 2560. The robot has two DC motors with encoders, and a joystick to control its speed and direction. The speed of the motors is ...

In order for the project to work, make sure to calibrate both ESC before running the main code. You gotta make sure you have installed the Servo and Wire Arduino ...

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 ...

At Maker Faire Milwaukee this past weekend, [basement tech] was showing off his latest build, a PID controlled charcoal grill. While it hasn’t QUITE been tested yet with real food, it does work in ...

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 ...

ABSTRACT: This paper describes the development and implementation of a control system for a direct current (DC) motor using the Arduino Uno microcontroller, based on the speed and direction control of ...

Abstract: The most widely used control strategy in industry is proportional integral derivative (PID) controller. The popularity of PID controllers can be attributed partly to their robust performance ...
