Have your classes, offices and meetings also shifted to online platforms like Zoom and MS Teams ? Well, ours have. And so we had an idea. Let's control MS Teams using Arduino Nano! In this project we will implement Key Mapping using Arduino Nano . The concept is to cause a trigger or action on desktop/laptop when a switch attached to Arduino Nano is pressed. For example, when we press the switch connected to digital pin 2, it receives High input which triggers keyboard control CTRL-Shift-C, which is a shortcut for MS Teams to start a call. Now that we know the concept, let's work on implementation. Software Implementation Download AAC Keys Program The command to be executed on desktop upon button press is transmitted serially through USB connection of Arduino Nano with Laptop. As in the example discussed above, once we press the switch, the corresponding code for CTRL-SHIFT-C will is sent serially from Arduino Nano to the laptop. To make our Desktops USB port act as a Sera...

Introduction Vehicles moving on-road may cause unpredictable accidents leading to colossal loss of mass and life. But what is that causing the orderly movement of Vehicles? Traffic Control System. It is used to avoid accidents and to control the flow of traffic. In this project, we will be using Arduino Uno to control the timings of Led in each direction, and with this, we will guide our vehicles to move towards a particular direction. As we know, in the traffic Control System, the green led refers to move, Red is to stop, and Orange is to get ready or to slow down. We have considered Four Directions, When the Green led of Direction 1 is ON, this indicates that all the vehicles from Direction 2,3, and 4 should move towards Direction 1. Meanwhile, all the other directions i.e. those in which orange or green is not turned ON, have their red led turned ON. Afterward, Orange led of direction 2 turns ON, this indicates that all the vehicles from direction 1, 3, and 4 should get ready to m...
