“This project measures the background radiation outside the house, and transmits it to a display station inside the house. The outside sensing unit is solar powered (but it doesn’t have to be), and should have a range of at least 50m.”

“In this article, i will use the PIC 16F1937, a powerful microcontroller with a 16-channel capacitance module. I will only use the 4 of them, but the idea to expand it to all 16 channels is the same.”

“If you ever wanted to integrate touch sensitivity into your project, this board could just do the trick. It’s a capacitive touch sensor. These sensors are used in our everyday consumer electronics like notebook trackpads, video game consoles, touchscreens…just to name a few.”

“This is a skin-detection based game of pong on a VGA monitor in which two players compete with one another to slip the ball past the other’s paddle towards the boundary. Each paddle follows the motion of a player’s hand in the vertical direction through an HTC 231x CCD camera.”

“The aim of this project was to get a decent pair of wireless headphones, without breaking the piggy bank. I’m talking decent, as in comfortable, good bass, good treble, good listening distance, battery lasts all day, etc.”

“Flying RC helicopter is really very exhilarating. Their versatility gives a RC pilot a complete access to the three-dimensional space in such a way that no other machines can! I have played RC helicopter for more than one year but still find that I have just learnt a few tricks that it can perform.”

“Speak into the transmitter and others hear you on any FM radio. The transmitter can be built in an afternoon with simple, affordable and widely available parts. Construction is fun and much can be learned although performance is modest; for example, your voice gets difficult to hear at distances greater than 25 feet.”

“This is a simple sequencer machine which uses Capacitative Sensing Code for input to the Arduino. It is is a combination drumpad and sequencer. It has just two modes, record, and playback, and needs very few components; an Arduino (of course), and just 3 resistors and a piezo speaker. If you’re feeling decadent, you can add an LED (with a resistor) for more “ooomph”.”

“GSM Home Security is a project to monitor the home when you are out of the house through the GSM network. The project uses four magnetic switches installed on any door in the house to trigger notification of doors being open or closed.”
