Kerala's First 3D Printed Building

Created as a showcase project, AMAZE-28, the single-room summer house, was successfully constructed within 28 days on the grounds of the Kerala State Nirmithi Kendra. The 3D-printed building at the Kerala State Nirmithi Kendra in Thiruvananthapuram. (Photo: Shekunj)  The inauguration of Kerala's inaugural 3D-printed structure, a 380-square-foot single-room summer house, is scheduled to take place on October 10 at the Kerala State Nirmithi Kendra (Kesnik) campus located in PTP Nagar, Thiruvananthapuram.  Conceived as a showcase initiative, the summer house named AMAZE-28 was successfully finished within a mere 28 days. This impressive project was executed by Tvasta, a construction technology startup based in Chennai, founded by alumni of IIT-Madras, who have entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Kesnik.  AMAZE-28 is perched upon a concrete foundation atop a gentle elevation within the Kesnik campus.

How to blink LED using Arduino Tutorial

 The on-board LED is blinking in this example, which demonstrates the simplest thing you can do with an Arduino to observe physical output. 

Components Required 

  1.  Arduino board
  2. LED (optional)
  3. 220 ohm resistor
  4.  Breadboard
  5. Computer: PC/Laptop
  6. Arduino IDE installed on computer

Circuit

This illustration makes use of the built-in LED found on most Arduino boards. The number of the digital pin that this LED is attached to can change from one type of circuit board to another. We have a constant that is mentioned in each board descriptor file to make your life simpler. The built-in LED may be readily controlled thanks to the constant LED. The constant's relationship to the digital pin is seen here. 

  • D13 - 101
  • D13 - Due
  • D1 - Gemma
  • D13 - Intel Edison
  • D13 - Intel Galileo Gen2
  • D13 - Leonardo and Micro
  • D13 - LilyPad
  • D13 - LilyPad USB
  • D13 - MEGA2560
  • D13 - Mini
  • D6 - MKR1000
  • D13 - Nano
  • D13 - Pro
  • D13 - Pro Mini
  • D13 - UNO
  • D13 - Yún
  • D13 - Zero

You must assemble this circuit and link one end of the resistor to the digital pin that corresponds to the LED BUILTIN constant if you want to light an external LED with this code. Connect the resistor's other end to the LED's long positive leg (also known as the anode). Connect the cathode, or short negative leg, of the LED to the ground (GND). The LED BUILTIN value on the UNO board that is depicted in the diagram below is D13. 

Blinking LED - Arduino Circuit

The resistor value connected in series with the LED may be different from 220 ohm; the LED will still light up with values as high as 1K ohm. 

Arduino Code

Once the circuit is complete, connect your Arduino board to your computer, launch the Arduino Software (IDE), and enter the following code. 

/*
 For detail information visit: www.techknowlab.com
*/

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);    // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
}

Controlling LEDs over WiFi using NodeMCU and Blynk App.

This article is the base on the Internet of things ( IoT ) . IoT describes the network of physical objects—“things” or objects—that are embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies for the purpose of connecting and exchanging data with other devices and systems over the Internet. In this article 3 LEDs will be controlled by an android application (made using Blynk) over a wifi connection. How to use NodeMCU with Blynk  If you want to start learn the Internet of Things (IoT) concept, then controlling a LED over the  internet is the " Hello World!" of the IoT journey. Performing the " Hello World" task will be easy using NodeMCU micro-controller as the first client and Blynk as the 'broker' or server and Blynk android application as the second client. Now communication between two clients will happen through broker over the internet. Now lets, make this happen.  Components Required For this activity we will need following components: Nod...

How to Know the NodeMCU IP Address for Your Next IoT Project

  NodeMCU IP Address: The NodeMCU is a popular development board for IoT projects. It’s small, affordable, and comes with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, making it the perfect choice for creating connected devices. But before you can start building your NodeMCU projects, you need to know the IP address of your device. This IP address is essential for communicating with the NodeMCU from another device, such as a computer or smartphone. In this article, we’ll show you how to find the NodeMCU IP address, so you can get started with your next IoT project. Method 1: To Know the NodeMCU IP Address One of the easiest ways to find the NodeMCU IP address is by using the serial monitor in the Arduino IDE. First, connect your NodeMCU board to your computer using a micro-USB cable. Then, upload the following code to the NodeMCU: #include <ESP8266WiFi.h> void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); Serial.println(); Serial.print("Connecting to "); Serial.println(...

Blinking of LED Using Arduino UNO

Hi !!!! Here we are going to learn very very simple use of Arduino, that is blinking of a LED. Here we will do simplest project using Arduino. So, here we go.... COMPONENTS REQUIRED - Bread Board Arduino UNO Jumper Wires Power Source (5V) / Battery Resistor (1K) CIRCUIT PREPA RATION - Take bread board and Arduino. Connect the +5V from Arduino to the +Ve line on Bread Board and GROUND from Arduino to -Ve line on bread board. Red Wire     : +5 V Black Wire  : GROUND     Now put a LED on bread board. Connect the Anode (+ / Longer terminal) of led to the pin 13 of Arduino. Connect Cathode (- / Shorter terminal)  to 1K ohm resistor and connect another terminal of resistor to the GND on breadboard.   Now our circuit is ready to work.  Our next aim is to build the code. Let's make our code. CODE -     To download the complete code -  CLICK HERE -----------------------------...
