Let's continue digging deeper into Arduino to see what's really going on with registers.
In order to use more advanced features or optimize our code for space and speed, we need to understand how to work with registers directly in microcontrollers.
With all the information needed to construct a combat bot, let's actually build one!
We bring back Jamie to give us some design tips when creating a 3D-printed plastic ant bot.
We get a combat bot veteran to talk about the different weapon types for fighting robots.
We can use digital magnetic field detectors as a compass to give our robot an absolute heading.
Let's gaze upward and look at how some of those nifty satellites can give us position data.
It's Monday, and that means it's time for Adventures in Science! This week, we dive into the mysterious world of rotary encoders.
Time for the ever-popular loops discussion! We look at the three basic loops you can use in Arduino.
Building on our last Arduino programming episode, we look at creating compound conditional statements using logic operators.
We present another set of concepts in the computer science series as they relate to Arduino.
This week, we look at what constitutes syntax in a programming language and how to employ it when writing code in Arduino.
We examine the computer science concept of how a single-threaded, sequential program flows in Arduino.

Wow I hadn’t heard about this competition before! It sounds very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
The photo of an SMA connector shows 4 each 1k resistors, i.e. a 250 Ohm load. Yet the referenced web page for making Vector Network Analyzer…
There is absolutely no reason you have to go to college to learn hobby-level electrical engineering. He’s not building actual submarines,…
I would go one step further and put the address(es) right on the board silkscreen. In this case, where there is an address jumper, put it…
Good article but I might suggest that electrical engineering is something you to go to college for.. You don’t play around and suddenly…
I’ve never priced a flying probe tester, we typically pay for that type of testing with some of the proto designs, at the board house or…
Enlarging the image, I finally noticed that it appears that both the TX and RX lines on the “SERIAL COM” connector are wired to the source…
Yeah, we might should try “replace the USB cable” right after “check that the power is plugged in”! ;-) (Amazing how many “problems” are…
Hey John, Good catch, but sorry, not the one. I totally didn’t even think of heat sinks while designing this, or after using it so many…
