[DegrawSt] uses four 50 kg load cells to create a bathroom scale using an Arduino. Load cells typically contain strain gauges that change resistance when deformed.

We’ve seen a few projects based on load cells, like this posture-correcting system, but most of them use the load cell to measure linear forces.

A simple Arduino project to measure the stability of USB power supplies. This project can easily be reconfigured to be a simple digital voltage meter.

For those starting out in Arduino, there are tons of resources to get better acquainted with the community and the types of projects you can tinker with.

10 Simple-But-Fun Projects to Make With Arduino John Boxall, author of the new book Arduino Workshop, shares a few of the projects from his book on how to get started with the microcontroller.

The version 2.0 of the Arduino Load Driver enables you to use 5V to control up to 100V allowing you to supply power to a wide range of different peripherals including motors, solenoids or anything ...
