Arduino Projects Book - Project 11: Crystal Ball

In this project, we will simulate how the crystal ball works. People say their wishes and shake the ball, then it will reveal the answer for the wish. Similarly, we will use the tilt switch as a crystal ball. However, we need one more thing to display the mysterious answer. Today, we will meet the liquid crystal display (LCD).

Arduino Projects Book - Project 10: Zoetrope

In the past when people had not yet invented the television, movie theaters used a very long ribbon of static images and rolled it very fast to create an illusion of a video clip. The device that helped them make movies using that method is called **zoetrope**. Today, I'm gonna use the Arduino and a DC motor to simulate how Zoetrope works.

Arduino Projects Book - Project 06: Light Theremin

Today, I become a musician! I'll use light to control the piezo buzzer. It's going to be a fun project since the piezo produces a little funny sound. The instrument which I'm building is called a theremin. It's time for the sixth project of the Arduino Projects Book - Light Theremin.
