The experiment is for switching an acoustic sounder as a rain alarm after a predetermine time. It may, however, be tinkered for a number of other applications. Needless to say, this is a simple ...

[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

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 ...
