That’s right, these parking sensors are powered by an Arduino board, and the only extra components that were used in the project are a HC SR04 ultrasonic sensor, an active buzzer, and jumper wires.

The project is called Sensors for Students, and it wants to build a sensor collection kit that includes a plate for an open-source Arduino board and Grove shield combo, along with one of a variety ...

Recently, we have seen more projects utilizing lasers for range-finding, including LIDAR projects. It is very exciting to see such high-end sensors making their way into the maker/hacker realm.

This Arduino lights dimmer project is based on Doug Hitchcock’s comment: “I need to have a lamp dimmer that can “cascade” from one lamp to the next (up to 4 lamps). Basically, when you close a switch, ...

Makers, developers and hobbyists that are interested in making projects involving muscles and reactions from muscles may find these new Arduino MyoWare muscle sensors a great addition to their ...

Seeking students for projects prototyping a set of self-powered embedded sensor systems for pervasive computing. These projects will sharpen your hardware and software skills.

With over 20 unique sensor types, and the ability to be used with several different development platforms, Tarts wireless sensors allow for endless sensing, monitoring and control possibilities.

This means you won't have to go out of your way to buy a separate board. The Uno Rev3 is also the most popular Arduino board, so expect to see tutorials and project guides available online.
