Arduino 6 : Read Schematic Diagrams
Posted by on Sep 13, 2018
After the last video many people asked me how to read schematic diagrams so this time I’ll walk you through the process of taking a schematic diagram to a finished circuit. This time we will be creating a NAND Gate. NAND Gates are awesome because they can be used...

Arduino Tutorial 5

Arduino Tutorial 5
Posted by on Sep 10, 2018
My most active subscriber asked me to show how to make a calculator with circuits and so I begin that journey with this video. To make a calculator you need to understand Transistors as well as Transistor Gates. I make 4 circuits, one to demonstrate how transistors...

Arduino Tutorial 4

Arduino Tutorial 4
Posted by on Sep 5, 2018
In this part of my Arduino tutorial we’ll create 2 separate projects. First we’ll learn how 7 segment displays work and then create a dice simulation rolling circuit. We’ll then learn how to create a theremin, which is a weird instrument you can play...

recent from Communication How I Make YouTube Videos
How I Make YouTube Videos The most common question that I get is How I Make YouTube Videos. I have held off on making this video because I’m definitely not an expert at making videos. I didn’t want anyone to think I thought I was either. However, the past few videos have been about answering common questions so I decided...
recent from Diet Nutritional Shrimp Gumbo
Shrimp Gumbo I haven’t made a recipe video in a while, so today I thought I’d present the recipe my wife and children love the best Shrimp Gumbo. The feature is definitely the shrimp, but the sweet and yet hot sauce is pretty amazing on its own. I cam up with this after my family watched The Princess and the...
recent from Marketing Tutorial Vote
Tutorial Vote I’ve decided that my next tutorial series will be really big and will answer many of the questions I receive. The only problem is that most people either want to see an Android / Games Tutorial, or a J2EE / Application Development Framework Tutorial? I can’t do both because they will each take at...
