Community Hack: Zheremino

Zheremino es un Theremin óptico MIDI. En este proyecto construido con un Arduino Diecimilla o superior, el autor quiere controlar sintetizadores desde un sensor al estilo del método de funcionamiento del Theremin. Es decir, tocar el instrumento sin tocarlo físicamente.

Ganador - Arduino Contest 2011: Fraile del Tiempo

Este Fraile del tiempo de estética retro, construido con un Arduino Duemilanove, es una actualización de los antiguos higrómetros de crin de caballo que algunos conocimos de pequeños.

Finalista - Arduino Contest 2011: Insoladora Lunch Box

En este Hack, el autor nos muestra cómo construir una insoladora con temporizador a partir de un Arduino Nano y una caja de plástico estanca tipo "Lunch Box".

Finalist - Arduino Contest 2011: SMSalert

This project made with Arduino Uno has been developed for our volunteer fire department. As not everyone in the department has an official (but expensive) pager, alerting enough people is sometimes difficult. But luckily everyone has a mobile phone nowadays, so why not alerting all the people via SMS?

Finalista - Arduino Contest 2011: Robot de Sumo

Con este robot controlado con un Arduino Mega, podrás competir en la modalidad de Sumo de 3kg. Esta competición se disputa encima de un tatami circular de 175cm y básicamente se trata de no salirse del terreno de juego e intentar expulsar al robot del contrincante.

Finalist - Arduino Contest 2011: Ad hoc WSN Nodes

With this hack we create nodes for an ad hoc Wireless Sensor Network for urban traffic evaluation by means of a Arduino Mega, a GPS Module, and a XBee shield with XBee Pro 868.

Some of the applications are: traffic lights optimization, public services fleet management communications, environmental geo-monitoring, etc.

This hack has been submitted by Aris Katsikaridis & Dr. Fotis Liotopoulos (Greece).

Community Hack: GPS Car Alarm

With this project, the author wants to share with all of us his car alarm system.

It's very simple: a GPS module to get position data and a GPRS module that sends an SMS to a mobile with the position of the car.

Community Hack: Sensor Cromático de Temperatura

En este hack, se nos muestra cómo construir un sensor cromático de temperatura mediante un Arduino, el cuál controla el cambio de color de un LED RGB dentro de una pelota de ping-pong; indicándonos así la temperatura dentro de la habitación en la que nos encontremos.

Community Hack: Security Access Control

This project shows how to configure Arduino and the RFID module to build an access control for security in our door.

The system reads the RFID card and checks if that card is allowed or not.

This hack has been submitted by Verena Berg (Germany).

Community Hack: Open Door Detector

With this detector we'll avoid to forget our door open. This system is also useful for warning us if “somebody” is opening our door. A hall effect sensor and a magnet will detect if the door is open. Arduino is reading the state of the sensor and if it is activated (door open), it will play a sound to warn us about the open door and will activate a lost call to my mobile, through a GPRS shield.

This hack has been submitted by Quique Fernandez (Spain).

Example Hack: Ultrasound Parking Sensor

Parking my car is quite more easy now with my Arduino parking sensor.

An ultrasound sensor with Arduino and XBee shield in the back part of the car for measuring the distance from the car to the obstacles. Inside the car another Arduino with XBee shield will get data from the other and displays the distance to the obstacle using an LEDs bar.
