How can you detect the presence of a flame without a fancy commercial device? In this post I will describe how to build cheap flame sensors at home with a couple of methods. Second Method: Secondly, ...

This one tickles me for some reason - a flame simulation using the Arduino MKR RGB Shield. And that's about it really - all you need is the shield and an Arduino board to plug it directly into, such ...

A naked flame is a complex soup of ionised gases, that possesses an unexpected property. As you might expect with that much ionisation there is some level of electrical conductivity, but the unusual ...

The 2011 Burning Man festival starts in just a few short days, and with that we have an excellent mutant vehicle accessory that no insane desert dweller should be without. An Arduino powered fire ...

Arduino, the open-source hardware, software and content platform, has collaborated with Chinese DIY electronics company, Seeed to create the Arduino Sensor Kit. The kit brings Seeed’s Grove sensors to ...

The FS-5000E Flame Sensor from Takex immediately detects ultraviolet rays contained in flames and activates an external output. With faster detection than conventional smoke alarms, they are ideal for ...
