ARDUINO TUTORIAL 68: Make a Remote Controlled RGB LED with Brightness and Color Control

June 30, 2020 admin

RGB LED Remote Control — This is our Remote Controlled RGB LED

In this lesson we take you through step-by-step instructions on creating a remotely controlled RGB LED. This is the solution to the Homework Assignment given in Tutorial 68. It is important for you to try and complete this on your own before looking at my solutions.

We are building this with parts from our Elegoo Kit , and our actual build is using an Arduino Nano, which allows the project to be built on a single breadboard. You can get the neat jumper wires HERE.

This video steps you through our build.

Below is the code we developed in this video.

ARDUINO TUTORIAL 67: Create a Remote Controlled RGB LED with Brightness and Color Control

June 23, 2020 admin

In this video we give you a homework assignment to create a dimmable RGB LED. You must set color and brightness using the IR remote. In Tutorial 68 we will take you through the build, and show you the solution. I hope you will really try your best to do it on your own before you check out my solution.

Arduino Tutorial 66: Controlling DC Motor, Speed and Direction with a Remote

June 16, 2020 admin

IR Control DC Motor — Circuit for IR Remote Control of DC Motor

In this lesson we develop a project that allow Remote Control of the speed and direction of a DC Motor. We use an Arduino Nano, and components from the Elegoo Kit. Also, to facilitate a clean build, we use Straight Jumper Wires.

The motor is connected according to this schematic:

Connection Diagram for a DC Motor Controller using the L293 Control Chip

Also, the remote control receiver is connected as follows: R on Remote to 5V, G on Remote to Ground, and Y on the Remote to Arduino Digital Pin 9. Go back and check out Tutorial 65 if you need more details on the Remote Module Connections.

In this video we will take you step by step through the build and coding for the project.

The code below is the software we developed in the video.
