Car Reverse Parking Sensor Circuit with Alarm
In this post I will show how to construct a car reverse parking sensor alarm circuit using arduino, ultrasonic sensor and 2.4 GHz transceiver module. This project can be add-on feature for your car if it doesn’t sport a build-in parking sensors. Introduction The proposed project has similar functionality as traditional car parking sensor has, […]
Ultrasonic Fuel Level Indicator Circuit
An electronic device or circuit which detects and indicates the various fuel levels in a fuel tank without a physical contact, through ultrasonic waves, is called an ultrasonic fuel level sensor In this post I have explained how to build a simple fuel tank level indicator circuit using Arduino and ultrasonic sensors. In every vehicle […]
Sequential Bar Graph Turn Light Indicator Circuit for Car
The article illustrates a simple yet innovative, fancy car turn signal light circuit which produces a rising bar graph sequence effect when switched ON. The circuit idea was requested by Mr. +Bruce Lowry. I have explained more. Technical Specifications I am after a circuit design similar to the LED Bar Graph circuit that is found […]
