Reading Time: 2 minutesWhen Manivannan moved to the UK from India, he found that the damp winters provide the perfect conditions for mold growth in the shower. The preventative solution is to run the ventilation fan when showering, but that is easy to forget. So, he built the AntiMould Shower Sentinel to ensure discipline. This device’s purpose is […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesA message from Arduino CPO – Marcello Majonchi Dear Builders, Engineers, and Innovators, Arduino is built on one belief: powerful technology should be accessible to everyone who wants to make, learn, or innovate with it. Staying true to that principle in every decision we make sometimes means making tough calls about what we charge for […]

Reading Time: 3 minutesFrom first-time coders to seasoned makers, this year every single Coolest Projects creator brought all their creativity to their tech projects and made something to be proud of. Over 15,000 young people showcased more than 4,500 creations on a global stage. With participants from 40 countries and 47% girls, this year’s online showcase is a […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesThe dream of smart, connected devices controlling your home automatically, is especialy appealing on a lazy day when we’re trying to get work done in a heatwave. Maybe this will be the year we finally integrate temperature sensors with fans and a drinks dispenser to keep us cool, or maybe not, but we do know […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteMake a Smart Home in Raspberry Pi Official Magazine issue 167 The dream of smart, connected devices controlling your home automatically, is especialy appealing on a lazy day when we’re trying to get work done in a heatwave. Maybe this will be the year we finally integrate temperature sensors with fans and a drinks dispenser […]
Reading Time: 5 minutesLearning something new requires effort. Learners take in new information by listening and observing. When a lot of information is presented at once in a lesson, that can create too much cognitive load for learners — a barrier to understanding and engagement. To help you design and deliver great computing lessons, we’ve written two new […]
Reading Time: 4 minutes[embedded content] The UK Government is undertaking the first major review of England’s curriculum and qualifications system since the current national curriculum was introduced in 2014. We believe that this is an excellent opportunity not simply to update the computing curriculum content, but to reconsider what computing education is for, who it serves, and how […]
Reading Time: 4 minutesAn amazing 25,707 participants had their code run on the International Space Station (ISS) this year, marking the European Astro Pi Challenge’s 10th anniversary in style. Yesterday, Astro Pi teams and their mentors received their official certificates and data — the final stage of this year’s challenge. On each certificate, participants can see the exact […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesNobody enjoys doing inspections, but they’re a fact of life across many different industries. If you rent out moving trucks, for example, you need to do inspections before and after each rental, so you know if a customer damages something that needs to be addressed. But the logistics of those inspections are tricky and often […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesTopgolf has a pretty brilliant business model: let golfers do the fun stuff (driving balls at max power), without any of the complications, time commitments, or logistics of running through a full 18-hole course. Batting cages exist to do something similar for baseball, but Pete LeMaster didn’t want to practice batting — he wanted to […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesAn antenna’s physical properties are inextricably linked to its electromagnetic properties and how it radiates and receives radio waves. One of the simplest examples is extension, like with an old cell phone or FM radio antenna. But shape and structure can have more dramatic effects, which is why we have so many different kinds of […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesPost about a 3D printing problem — any 3D printing problem — online and all the top comments will be: “Is your filament dry?” That is a prudent question to ask, because filament that has absorbed moisture will wreak havoc on print quality and can even cause total print failure. If you want to keep […]

Reading Time: 2 minutesIn the world of FashionTech — a field that blends haute couture design and mechatronics engineering — nobody has more experience than Anouk Wipprecht. Her own creations are always intriguing, but she also mentors students to help them realize their own visions. As part of a collaboration between Summa Fashion and Fontys School of Engineering, […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesThe Arduino UNO Q is here and it is a very exciting product that combines a Qualcomm Dragonwing QRB2210 processor and STM32U585 microcontroller, giving users the best of both worlds in a single convenient package. One of its best features is the ability of the SBC to send data seamlessly to the microcontroller for interfacing […]
Reading Time: 4 minutesIf you’ve been turning to ChatGPT to write your Arduino code, you may actually be missing out on a tool designed just for you: the Arduino AI Assistant, built directly into Arduino Cloud. While general-purpose AIs like ChatGPT can generate code, they often miss critical details, such as using the wrong libraries or adding unnecessary […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesIn August, young tech creators from across Sri Lanka gathered for the country’s second-ever in-person Coolest Projects event, hosted by our partner STEMUP Educational Foundation. The showcase was a chance for young people to share and celebrate their ideas and inventions with families, friends, mentors, and the wider digital making community, while having lots of […]

As a Gold Partner, we’ll be there with our biggest booth ever in Hall 41, bringing together people, projects, and a whole lot […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesTake a minute to think about the technology you use every day. How many programming hours went into the way you are reading this blog post? What discussions and solutions built the browser you’re using? We take for granted all the clever, creative programming that goes into the technology we use in our daily lives. […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesAs virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) slowly grow in adoption, their shortcomings become more obvious. Most glaringly, they only engage users’ sense of sight and hearing. Haptic tactile feedback is almost non-existent and so picking up a “sword” in VR feels like picking up a VR controller, because that’s what you’re actually doing. […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesTactile displays — particularly for use as refreshable braille displays — have always been a challenge to design and fabricate, as they require so many moving parts. Every dot needs its own actuated mechanism and there needs to be dozens or hundreds of dots squeezed into a small space. Conventional micro actuators become very expensive […]
