Fossil fuels have been consumed rapidly over recent decades, and their availability is decreasing. Because of this, there is a growing focus on renewable energy sources. Solar energy is one of the ...

This paper presents a methodology for the measurement of strain by means of strain-gauges, where the data acquisition is done by using an Arduino Uno board, due to the low-cost and the easy ...

This paper describes the development and implementation of a control system for a direct current (DC) motor using the Arduino Uno microcontroller, based on the speed and direction control of the motor ...

Arduino libraries, like libraries for other programming languages, help easily extend the range of functions available to users in the standard integrated development environment (IDE). They are ...

There are many ways to use an Arduino on a model railroad. These tiny, inexpensive, programmable computers can perform functions such as controlling signals, routing turnouts, and running animations.

Arduino is a popular brand of open-source microcontrollers that can be used for a variety of DIY projects, from educational settings to home theater to smart home management. The microcontrollers are ...

The following project is an update of Gary D. Patterson’s “Simplified CTC signals” in the July 1988 issue of MR. Bringing the project up to date was a large endeavour. The block control project now ...

If like me you enjoy using the range of Arduino development boards to create a wide variety of different projects. You will be pleased to know that a new microcontroller board has been launched this ...
