Traffic Light Controller Circuit [Signal Red, Green, Amber]
A traffic light controller circuit can be used for controlling the sequential illumination of the RED, ORANGE and GREEN traffic signal lamps, by maintaining appropriate delays between the illumination sequence. In real traffic signal light system we all have seen how the red, orange and green lamps switch ON/OFF in sequence with specific amount of […]
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 […]
How to Make Powerful Car Headlights Using LEDs
In this post we see how to build an enhanced and efficient car headlight lamp using Pirhana LEDs. A car LED headlight is a powerful lamp built using high efficiency LED arrays, which creates extremely powerful headlight lamp for the car, along with a very high efficiency in terms power consumption. Using 4-pin Pirhana LEDs […]
Automatic Vehicle Headlight Dipper/Dimmer Circuit
The circuit described here can be built and used in your vehicle for an automatic dipping and dimming operation of the vehicle headlamps, in response to the intense lights coming from an opposite vehicle headlamps. What’s a Dimmer/Dipper in Automobiles An automobile headlight dimmer/dipper is a circuit which automatically switches the headlight intensities of vehicles arriving from […]
