Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

Concept was taken from Neco777. Please see the website https://github.com/Arduino-IRremote/Arduino-IRremote/issues/20 Code was modified from https://github.com ...

An infrared proximity sensor, or IR Sensor, is an electronic device that emits infrared light to detect objects and motion in Arduino projects. This interfacing of the IR sensor module with Arduino is ...

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) strive to catch computer system intrusion & utilize by any garnering and analyzing data. Wireless IDSs garner all local wireless transmissions and generate alerts ...

IR (Infrared) communication is simple, low-cost, and widely used wireless communication technology. IR light is somewhat similar to the visible light, except that the wavelength is slightly longer.

Old infrared remote controls can be a great way to interface with your projects. One of [AnalysIR’s] latest blog posts goes over the simplest way to create an Arduino based IR receiver, making it ...
