Sound Activated Wood Shop Air Filter - Automated Air Cleaning

Описание: Check out our other wood shop improvement projects:    • Wood Shop and Tool Projects  

Our Fanboy wood shop air filter is an overpowered air cleaner that we run whenever we are cutting or sanding wood projects in the shop, which is often. The AudioBot is an Arduino device that turns the Fanboy on whenever it hears us using a large tool like a table saw or miter saw. That's right, it works by sound! This relieves us of the tedious task of plugging in the Fanboy when we work and remembering to unplug it a couple hours after we finish in the shop.

Could we just have bought a timer to use with the Fanboy? Yes. But it wouldn't be sound activated and wouldn't have all of the cool LEDs we have on the AudioBot. Plus the AudioBot only cost around $30 and it was REALLY fun to build. So in our shop the AudioBot is better than any commercial timer we could have gotten.

This project was highly experimental and we will probably be adjusting the microphone settings and code for some time as we tweak it to work with us in the wood shop. But that process is why we build things. It's fun to try new ideas we haven't seen elsewhere, and with the AudioBot we have a very useful device that helps us out in the wood shop.
