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 ...

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 ...

PID control has been in use for a long time in industry, but only for the past few years has it been introduced into environments such as Arduino, with rather concise libraries and no graphical aids.

A programmable temperature and process controller for use by the maker community has been designed to be Arduino-compatible. Called the SmartPID it can be programmed on a PC via the USB port using the ...

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 ...

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 ...

This repository contains the code, experimental setup details, and results of a project focused on PID controller tuning for a temperature regulation system. For an in-depth understanding of the ...

[Jason] learned a lot by successfully automating this meat smoker. This is just the first step in [Jason’s] smoker project. He decided to begin by hacking a cheaper charcoal-fed unit first, before ...

Traditional greenhouse systems often rely on manual adjustments or rudimentary automated controls that may not respond adequately to dynamic environmental changes. Advanced greenhouse control systems, ...
