We know that microcontroller can be programmed like we do with Arduino, also some micro controllers can run special versions of operating systems including Linux. or Run OS. What is Difference Between Linux-Based Embedded System Vs Microcontroller-Based Embedded System? It obvious that Linux system will be much more power hungry and not friend to battery, also may require cooling, and total thing … [Read more...]

Arduino IR Remote Control Module & Receiver Buying Guide
As like most of the Made in China stuffs, Arduino remote control is dirt cheap. Although they cost cheap, it is sane to know details before buying. Here is Arduino IR Remote Control Module & Receiver Buying Guide. We performed some marketing research and found there are lot of guides for doing basic to advanced things. Investing $2-$3 behind this set is not at all bad idea. Arduino … [Read more...]
Cheapest Way to Setup Raspberry Pi (Headless, Like Server)
Raspberry Pi with all needed things for GUI is no way cheap, indeed it is quite costly including all actually needed hardwares for general purpose use and increasing longevity of it. Case of Arduino is different as it is just a developmental board based on microcontroller. Raspberry Pi is a single board computer. Here is cheapest way to setup Raspberry Pi as headless like server to SSH & work. … [Read more...]
Arduino Fingerprint Scanner Module GT-511C3, GT-511C1R
Fingerprint scanners are definitely interesting but not many things are known these stuffs as Open Source hardware in this niche still quite less and the module is quite complex. Here is a guide on buying Arduino fingerprint scanner module GT-511C3, GT-511C1R buying guide and basic details to not get ripped off. GT-511C3 or GT-511C1R is the part number of the stuff - if you are lucky then it will … [Read more...]
Arduino LDR/Photoresistor and LED Based Light Meter
These projects are good for the beginners to learn basic things. We are showing a basic light meter, you'll try to add a push button to start and another push button to stop. In previous articles we have shown how to create basic sound meter with microphone and Arduino. That circuit was slightly difficult. LDR aka Photoresistors are more easy electronic component. Indeed, you can directly use a … [Read more...]
Arduino and LED Bar Display : Circuit Diagram, Code
LED bar display is actually like multiple LED, it is not like Arduino modules like TM 1637. Here is a guide explaining the basics, circuit diagram, code on Arduino and LED Bar Display. We need no extra library for the LED bar display but we need correct circuit and logically correct code to use this electronic component. Big advantage of LED Bar Display is it is quite cheap, we can use with IC … [Read more...]
List of Electronics Prototyping & Project Materials
After Twelfth grade, in standard countries degrees really matters least for the intelligent and hard working persons in the field of applied science. Several times it has been proved that traditional education mostly good for nothing and humans with no traditional education became the best possible on the niche - Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs are two good examples. And in this era of information … [Read more...]
