Controlling Alternating Current Devices with Arduino: Using Relays in Your Projects
with Hannah Joshua
Overview
Relays are key to using your Arduino to directly control devices that work on alternating current. This trick enables you to use a far greater variety of components in your projects, and in this case, it's one of my favorites: electroluminescent wires. In this video, you'll use this eye catching and fun device to showcase the powerful relay technique.
What You Will Learn
- Discover the different types of relays available and how they work
- Use relays with Arduino
- Switch on and off a strip of electroluminescent wire (a device not normally compatible with Arduino)
Who This Video Is For
Beginning-intermediate Arduino users – people who have built a few projects and are looking for ways to incorporate a greater variety of components into them.
