Introduction: Remote Bluetooth Firework Igniter

About: Awesome Electronics Tutorials, Projects and How To´s

Wouldn't it be nice to ignite more than one firework at the same time? Or even have a safe distance to more dangerous explosives. In this project I will show you how to build a circuit which can do just that with the help of the Bluetooth functionality of your smartphone. Let's get started !

Step 1: Watch the Video!

The video gives you an overview of what you need to do to build something similar. In the following steps I will present you more in depth information about it.

Step 2: Order Your Parts!

Here you can find all the parts that I used during this project (affiliate links):

Step 3: The Wiring!

Here you can find the schematic and pictures of how my final circuit and wiring inside my project box looks like.

Step 4: Program You ΜC!

Use the Arduino IDE and my sketch to program your ATmega.

Step 5: Download the App!

Here you can download the .apk file for your Android phone or the .aia file to import the project in your account of the MIT App Inventor.
