How to control a servo motor using an Arduino. Easy tutorial to learn controls engineering Zen: my coworker and I have prank-battle going which most recently involved sirens tied to timers based on my im in a meeting switch. I need to get him back. I'm dreaming up ideas. If anyone has any, i'm all ears. we're both chemical engineers, he's traveling half the time. His office has a fridge, a fancy computer setup, a Culligan water cooler and other basic office stuff. Unfortunately he shares his office with a cool dude that I like, but I'd be willing to have collateral damage lol. I'm not much of a circuits guy yet ( I dabble) but I have been thinking of something like a circuit connected to servos that push his ceiling tiles down onto him (not trying to hurt him though, or flips his keyboard. Or maybe something that is just annoying like a bell that rings when they open their door like a retail store. I'm not sure yet.

love your videos their one of a kind and super simple to understand. they've helped me understand a lot of important stuff and even thought a lot of these topics are hard to understand you've made it easy enough that a 2nd grader could understand it. I know you most likely won't see this comment but if you do thanks again for helping me learn. and also I would love to a see a video on industrial gearboxes and speed reducers such as dodge txt, footjones, lufkin, Falk, or whatever you choose. thanks again for the help.

Can anyone help me? I want to build a pair of dual pir activated servos.
My problem is power.
The servos are 4. 8 to 7. 2vdc. I was going to use 2 18650 lithium batteries but its too high at 7. 4v.
I have a L7905 regulator but Im not sure if it can supply the amps needed for 2 sevos under load.
Could it? Shouod I use it? Would a 6v regulator be ok?
Or a step down?

Great video. Please make more video with Arduino or ESP32.
Especially Arduino or ESP32 connected to TFT Display.
I'm looking for a tutorial that teach how to draw graphic on TFT.
Most I found on the internet is just code for copy and paste. No teaching or explanation.

Wow! Brilliant video i am electronic engineering student and i have been learning arduino but i habe never understood the concept this deep.
Its my personal and humble request to you sir, please make more arduino videos like this.
Excellent work! Keep it up Sir!

Hello there! I have a question, can I connect the servo motor straight to the arduino and computer to power it? Or do I need a capacitor(i don't really understand how they work yet) or a different power supply to power it? Thanks!

Could you possibly make a video about unidirectional tilt switches I have an idea but I can't find out a lot about these type of switches and I love the way you explain things

This is a great tutorial. I copied your work and managed to built the same servo controlling project. Would be awesome if you do similar videos for example on sensors. Thanks.

This was great! Will we be getting more Arduino videos in the future? I have a kit laying around I've never messed with but this is definitely inspiring me.
reply

I cant seem to use the servo code with a stepper motor code together, both work on their own but when combined, the stepper motor just stalls, any idea why?
reply

Hey, noticed your diagram says to connect both power and gnd to the same positive rail on the breadboard, from the arduino. did you mean that?
reply

Does that arduino only allow 5v or what happens when i input 10v, somehow the hardware needs to know that 5v is the upper limit
reply

Can you make a video on how to send data to the phone instead of only receiving? Id like to see the serial monitor on my phone.
reply

My partner is saying you didn't help us at all, but we were following your vid the whole time. Thanks man!
reply

On the drawing you have ground and the 5 volt on the breadboard in the same rail. Probly not good for the arduino.

I absolutely love these videos. They are so helpful, I hope that there will be more like these in the future.
