FMCW radar reports distances to multiple objects over a wide field of view.
Choosing options with one touch on our smartphones has become intuitive for us. Touch screens are very common nowadays - coffee machines, audio devices, car settings, etc. If they are such a vital part of our everyday life, wouldn't it be nice to know more about them? :)
We are happy to introduce the newest generation of the popular EVE displays – the EVE3 modules.
A simple motion detection solution with object filtering is available using short range radar sensors.

Learn how to build your own IoT temperature logger with data uploaded to the cloud. This project uses itbrainpower.net dual SIM full-size GSM shield [a-gsmII] for data transmission (or itbrainpower.net dual SIM full-size GSM GNSS shield [b-gsmgnss]) and Dallas/Maxim 18B20 1wire temperature sensor.
This tutorial enables you to power your Raspberry PI II / B+ / ZERO/ 3 from any power sources that supplies voltage between 6.5V up to 20V and current >1A.
An easy tutorial to show you how to log and plot weight measurements from a Load Cell using the PhidgetBridge and the corresponding FlowBotics App.
About two years ago, we had an unfortunate surprise. Our little five-year-old boy was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Not only was the hit very hard on our family, but ten days later, our youngest son had developed the same disease (two out of three of our children). This post will explain how we i…
Everyone has been eager to know when the LIDAR-Lite would return to market, so we are very happy to announce it is now available for pre-order: LIDAR-Lite v3. The second thing everyone was insistent on asking was: "Will this work with my previous setup/project/custom mounting/etc.?". I…
Build yourself your own Arduino temperature SMS alarm - thermal monitoring system having MAXIMUM and MINIMUM temperature thresholds, keep alive messages and (oldies but goldies as) SMS paging and remote ARM/DISARM system. You can supervise one or more 1WIRE temperature sensor(s) and page via SMS th…
This project will show you how fast you can build your own alarm system capable of supervising one or more magnetic contacts and inform you via SMS of the "burglar event". You even have the possibility to control (ENABLE/DISABLE) the alarm system remotely, via SMS commands. For SMS communicati
Arduino has grown almost exponentially in popularity since it was first released and is well known in the world of robotics as an inexpensive, highly versatile and easy to learn software and hardware platform for electronic and robotic experimentation. However, the introduction of the Raspberry …
We would like to introduce you to the LIDAR-Lite Laser Rangefinder [RB-Pli-01] from PulsedLight. This affordable and compact laser range finder is all the robotics enthusiast with ranging needs could want! It features laser range finding for distances of up to 40m
Déterminer la distance d'un objet face à votre robot est une tâche assez simple et s'effectue de manière fiable depuis bien longtemps à l'aide d'un sonar et de capteurs de distance IR. Dans la plupart des cas, ces deux types de capteurs répondent aux besoins de base du robot lorsqu'il s'agit d'une …
If you plan on using multiple Phidget devices in your project, then you'll need to use the unique serial number of the board to distinguish between each one. This is easy to do in Flowbotics, but first, you'll need to get the serial number. The serial number is listed on each device, or you can
