The project shows you how to build ballistic chronograph based on PIC18F13K50 Microcontroller. The project only been tested with a paintball gun and it is relatively simple to make. It also can record the rate of fire at which a device is firing. The operation of this projectile velocity meter is rather simple, there are […]

This speed detector uses two photo resistors paired with laser as a form of trip wire. The Arduino Duemilanove with an ATMEga328 captures the tripping action and calculates the amount of time between when each sensor was tripped. By dividing the distance between two trip wires with difference time value, you will get the SPEED.

This project is an experiment of capacitive touch sensor. The detector electrode (touch area) is a 10mm square copper plate put on the PCB and covered with an insulation overlay (Kapton tape). An ATtiny2313 with 1M ohms pull-up resister is used for the detector circuit.

This battery-powered water level monitoring uses PIC12F683 as main processor. The project works in the sleep mode to reduce power consumption. Each 2 second, the watchdog timer will wake-up the MCU and then check the sensor probes condition. If the sensor probes submersed in the water it will generate sound Beep and then go to […]
