    Bit of sensor advice please

    Hi iv just finished making a light sensor about an inch square that picks up a laser beam from however far away you can see it (with my eyes that's about 10 meters). What I want to do now is be able to detect an object instantly at a distance of upto 50 meters away. So What are my options for...

    robo lounge

    Nothing to do with picaxe but being a fan of robotics I had to share this with all those that are interested. Sorry to the moderators if this is wrong but I just though it was very clever and just goes to show you what is out there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4OsZROZGy0

    Multiplexing 7 seg displays

    Hi been a while but finally got round to doing something. Taken a few days and a lot of head banging but finally got the picaxe to multiplex a 4511 and two 7 seg displays. I used two npn transistors to switch displays and 4 pins to send data to 4511 that in turn outs data to the displays. Each...

    clap clap switch

    Hi this is my third picaxe project that has worked. Quick vid on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIpnQxuN0gY two transisters amplify the mic send a signal to the picaxe 08m2 which then reads the first clap goes to a for loop and then checks every cycle for another clap before the loop...

    linear hall sensor problem

    Hi all, OK I got a gear indicator working fine , but am using a cmos 4011 to block out the constant voltage coming from the hall sensor. What I want to do now is remove the 4011 and go straight from the hall sensor to the 08m2. The program works by reading whether pin c.1 or pin c.2 are high...

    Motorcycle gear changer using hall sensors

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvcJKPHmFQQ This is my second project using the 08m2 to output a clock signal to a cmos 4026 counter. Took a bit of brain bashing to work this one out. The sneaky hall sensor just keeps sending out a positive voltage so the picaxe goes mentl and the counter is...

    3x3x3 led cube

    I decided as a first project to tackle the 3x3x3 led cube. I had a look on youtube but I think there was only one done with a picaxe all the others were pic chips. The code is fairly basic with around 13 routines. Each loop of the main program calls a random routine and displays it. I have only...
