Motors & Arduino
We have tried Servo and DC motors already. (Here I’m gonna concentrate a little more on DC motor, since servo is already described in Mika’s course note. ) The difference between the two is: Servo: * You can control the orientation and the angle of movement quite precisely. Normally the angle varies within 0 & […]
Flex Sensor
What is Flex sensor? Flex sensor, resistive sensor also works as the potentiometer. It is a flexible strip that changes its resistance when bent. The bigger curvature creates the bigger resistance.
PIR MOTION SENSOR
PIR stands for Passive Infrared This sensor detects motion by measuring changes of heat in its surroundings. It is easy to connect if you follow carefully this few steps. For this Tutorial you will need: 1 Arduino Board 1 PIR Sensor 1 10kΩ Resistor Cables This is what the sensor looks like. When hooking up the […]
digitalWrite vs. analogWrite
digitalWrite The digital pins have only two modes – ON (1) or OFF (0). We use the constants HIGH (on) and LOW (off) since this makes it easier to read code. Digital pin always gives the output power of 5V when HIGH and 0V when LOW. The pin need to be configured with pinMode( ). […]

I am a student of Textile and fashion design at University of Ljubljana Faculty of Natural Sciences and engineering in Slovenia. In my last semester I used the opportunity to attend Erasmus exchange program at Weissensee Academy of Art in Berlin. Since my first visit to Berlin ten years ago, I keep visiting it at […]
Folded Paper
My idea was simply to create a sheet of paper, that when folded tri-dimentionally, the folds would function as contact points (switches) to close three different circuits. Depending on how you folded the figure a different color LED would turn on. Also the idea was to use your hands, so one hand is holding the […]
LIGHT ME UP! by IRITA OZOLINA
LIGHT ME UP! t h e i d e a was to make a module with one LED light that would light up only when put next to another module. There were two modules made which can be put directly next to each other and could be swapped. v i d e o t h […]

Book lamp
A Lamp that looks like a book and which could be shut and removed to a shelf, that was the idea of this luminous object. If a warm and nice atmosphere is desired, a snatch to the shelf and flip the book to a lamp. Contact the back of the books to each other and […]
