When you use a delay() function in an Arduino sketch, the processor stops everything it is doing until this delay is completed. That is called a blocking delay, because it blocks the processor until ...

I have been delving (groping blindfold, more accurately) into the Arduino compiler adaptation code to try to determine how it handles the switch-over between its pwm activities, its set-I/O-to-output ...

“Arduino Self-Timer” project presented here is a low-component count 60 seconds countdown timer. It can be powered from a 9V compact battery or suitable Arduino AC mains adaptor. Working of the ...

I have been trying to work out how to use the the timers within 8bit AVR processors through the Arduino IDE, but in modes not covered by the IDE. Lots of people have put up code, often two or three ...

A convenient timer set with circular progress indicator, supporting 9 presets and custom time. Designed for Arduino UNO with the same hardware as the arduino_flappybird project.

Droplet and StackAR, developed by MIT’s Media Lab, allow users to set timers or program an Arduino using light-based communication. By pressing the tool against a screen, flashes of light can ...

Electronics designer Patrick Thomas Mitchell has returned once again to Kickstarter to launch his new Raspberry Pi and Arduino programmable timer aptly named the Ninja Counter. The programmable timer ...
