[Fearless Night]’s slick dual hourglass doesn’t just simulate sand with LEDs, it also emulates the effects of gravity on those simulated particles and offers a few different mode options. The unit ...

While addressable LED strips are all the rage, [Mike] from [mikeselectricstuff] has been working on an installation using the more basic two-wire strips that are simply controlled via PWM dimming.

I designed an accelerometer-based inclinometer for a piece of medical diagnostic equipment (non-portable) a couple of jobs ago. The output of the accelerometer was an analog signal that was passed to ...

Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) accelerometers detect mechanical acceleration through alterations in electrical capacitance (capacitive), resistance (piezoresistive), or charge (piezoelectric) as ...
