When you think of Arduino projects, your mind likely goes straight to RFID door locks, weather sensors, or automated plant watering systems. While these are undeniably pretty cool projects, you might ...

The sensor continuously sends out infrared light and measures how much of that light is reflected. When a reflective object is within its set detection range, it returns a low signal. The Arduino ...

This is a library for the Arduino IDE that helps interface with ST's VL53L1X time-of-flight distance sensor. The library makes it simple to configure the sensor and read range data from it via I²C.

This is a library for the Arduino IDE that helps interface with ST's VL53L4CD time-of-flight distance sensor. The library makes it simple to configure the sensor and read range data from it via I²C.

Like Ars Senior Technology Editor Lee Hutchinson, I have a garage. The door on that garage is opened and closed by a device made by a company that, as with Lee’s, offers you a way to open and close it ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

When comparing the Raspberry Pi and Arduino, it's no secret that the Pi is undoubtedly the more powerful board. It is, after all, a single-board computer (SBC) that can run a fully functional ...

The Corona pandemic is officially over but its ill effects are still being seen, especially in crowded places like popular markets and malls. Besides, one needs to guard against new viruses and ...
