Arduino Projects by R

 Hey everyone Today I am back with an interesting and easy project. In this post, you will learn about making your own customizable Arduino digital screensaver picture frame. Read on further to learn how to do this project. Hardware components needed for this project Arduino Uno 2.8" TFT Touch Shield for Arduino w/Capacitive Touch MicroSD card Software apps Arduino IDE Setup Schematic The connection is pretty simple if you are using an Arduino Uno: simply plug in the shield and you are ready to go. To use this board with the Arduino Leonardo, you have to solder three jumpers. Refer to this guide to learn how to connect your Adafruit TFT display with your favorite microcontroller: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-2-8-tft-touch-shield-v2/connecting Code Before you start coding, you will have to download and install two libraries to use this TFT: Adafruit ILI9341 Library : contains the low-level code specific to this device Adafruit GFX Library : handles graphics operations co...

Hey everyone Today I will be explaining about my new project. In this post, you will be learning to utilize your Dual Axis Joystick module as a pointing device with the help of Arduino and Python.  Hardware Components used in this project Arduino Uno - You could use any other development board Dual Axis XY Joystick Module (KY-023) Male - to - Female Jumper wires (x5) Software apps Arduino IDE Python IDLE Setup Schematic GND - Ground VCC - 5V VRx - A0 VRy - A1 SW - D3 Code Before moving on to coding, you will need to understand how the Joystick module works. To learn about the module, please visit this page: How 2-Axis Joystick Works & Interface with Arduino + Processing . You will need to use both Arduino IDE and Python IDLE for this project. Before moving on to the coding of this project, let me guide you to install the Python software along with some important python modules. Download the software from  here . I would recommend you to download the latest compatible versi...
