Top 5 Featured Seeeduino/Arduino Grove Projects of the Week – June 11
Welcome back to our Top 5 featured projects section. Here are the Top 5 featured Seeeduino/Arduino Grove Projects of this week. Hope you will find something interesting.
1. Pushup Counter
by Team MixPose
While we can track cycling with Pelaton, running/walking with Fitbit, some of the basic exercises such as push-ups are still relatively hard to track. This project built a prototype of a push-up counter using an IR sensor and Arduino.
Hardware Components You May Need
- Arduino UNO & Genuino UNO × 1
- Arduino WiFi shield × 1
- Grove Base Shield V2.0 for Arduino × 1
- Grove – Infrared Reflective Sensor × 1
- Grove – Chainable RGB Led V2.0 × 1
- Grove – Speaker plus × 1
2. Grove – Thermal Imaging Camera IR Array (MLX90641)
by Seeed
Think about seeing yourself through a thermal imaging camera? Just be careful not to fart in front of the camera, or you will be shown on the screen since the temperature differs from your body and the fart came out of it. Let’s follow the project and check with the powerful Grove – Thermal Imaging Camera IR Array and Wio Terminal.
Hardware Components You May Need
- Wio Terminal: ATSAMD51 Core with Realtek RTL8720DN BLE 5.0 & Wi-Fi 2.4G/5G Dev Board × 1
- Grove – Thermal Imaging Camera – MLX90641 16×12 IR Array with 110° FOV × 1
3. Pulse Oximeter Using Wio Terminal
Who are familiar with Wio Terminal may know that it is a multifunctional microcontroller in which everything else is packaged, such as LCD, Bluetooth, WiFi, infrared and illuminance sensor, etc. This project is impressive for making a pulse oximeter with the powerful Wio Terminal.
Hardware Components You May Need
- Wio Terminal: ATSAMD51 Core with Realtek RTL8720DN BLE 5.0 & Wi-Fi 2.4G/5G Dev Board × 1
- Grove – Finger-clip Heart Rate Sensor × 1
4. Posture Control Night Light with Change Color and Count Down
by Seeed
The switch-mode of this posture control night light is interesting. With the changer of its position, the light color will change automatically, and it could count down to turn itself off.
Hardware Components You May Need
- Seeeduino Nano × 1 (could be replaced with Seeeduino XIAO and Grove Shield now)
- Grove – 3-Axis Digital Accelerometer × 1
- Li-po Rider Pro × 1
- Grove – RGB LED Ring (20 – WS2813 Mini) × 1
5. A Blooming Time
A mechanical flower that will open when touched, it can tell you the day, date, time, temperature and humidity. A beautiful art installation, yet with a practical function, it is a blend of art and technology.
Hardware Components You May Need
- Grove Beginner Kit × 1
- Grove – I2C Touch Sensor(MPR121) × 1
- Grove – High Precision RTC (Real Time Clock) × 1
- Grove – OLED Display 0.96″ (SSD1315) × 1
- Grove – Temperature, Humidity, Pressure and Gas Sensor for Arduino – BME680 × 1
- Grove- Servo × 1
