The Arduino IDE has to use one of its timers in fast PWM mode (timer 0) and fudges the 0% setting with a trick: by detecting the ‘0’ command, which the hardware would convert to its 1/256 setting, in ...

“Arduino Self-Timer” project presented here is a low-component count 60 seconds countdown timer. It can be powered from a 9V compact battery or suitable Arduino AC mains adaptor. Working of the ...

Arduino enthusiasts and makers looking for a project to keep them busy over the next couple of weekends might be interested in this Arduino flying start lap timer, which has been featured over on ...

An Arduino timer answer, probably I have been trying to work out how to use the the timers within 8bit AVR processors through the Arduino IDE, but in modes not covered by the IDE. Lots of people have ...

You can use a microcontroller to build a clock. After all, a clock is just something that counts the passage of time. The ...

Droplet and StackAR, developed by MIT’s Media Lab, allow users to set timers or program an Arduino using light-based communication. By pressing the tool against a screen, flashes of light can ...

Another project that combines an Arduino with a vintage look.

Runner and Arduino enthusiast Nikodem Bartnik has created a DIY 100m sprint timer which is placed at the finish line and signals the start of timing via an audible bleep from its integrated speaker.

You have a timer and clock in just about every single device out there these days, but if you want to build you own, Instructables user GeraldF6 shows you how to do so with a Arduino.

[Scott-28] recently sent in a particularly well-documented project that turned an antique rotary phone into a digital kitchen timer using an internal Arduino.
