Arduino VU Meter

VU meter using arduino

The project ‘Arduino VU Meter’ uses 16×2 alphanumeric LCD to display signal level of audio. Basically, VU Meter is used to represent volume of audio equipment. Previously we had posted a project Sound VU Meter using Arduino which uses LEDs to represent the level of volume where audio is taken from microphone. Unlike sound VU meter using arduino the project Arduino VU meter take input audio from two different channels i.e. left channel and right channel. Circuit Description of Arduino VU Meter The circuit of Arduino VU Meter is shown…

Pachisi Circuit Game using 555 IC

pachisi electronics game circuit

Pachisi game is a game similar to backgammon played mostly in Indian subcontinent, in which cones and cowries shells are used instead of counter and Dice. The game is played on a board between two persons, with the pieces moved in accordance with the throws of the cones or cowrie shells. This is an interesting game to test the ‘frustration quotient’ of the players. The rectangular board includes a number of red and green circles. Opponents start from the same square and move in opposite directions. The player who reaches…
