Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 20th, 2021 Arduino-powered quadruped robots are quite common projects for hobbyists to build once they are a bit more comfortable with embedded systems. One problem with many of the pre-designed quadruped platforms is that they require a lot of time to assemble owing to their large size. This is what inspired […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 20th, 2021 Seven-segment displays have been around for ages, and they have a really cool retro aesthetic about them. Over on Instructables, user alstroemeria (known as Jacky Mok in real life) decided to build a different kind of display that utilizes individual servo motors to slide the segments out, thus creating a 3D clock. The […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 20th, 2021 Beer pong and its derivatives are some of the most enjoyed games on college campuses, but they are not all that exciting with just a few cups at either end of a plastic folding table. Meet the Interactive Pong Table, which was created by Instructables user boregan1. It features a fully-custom […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 19th, 2021 Light painting is a fun way to create digital images by using just a few points of light to “draw” across a camera with a long exposure time. This gives the illusion of a virtual streamer being dragged on the canvas and can produce amazing photos. Ted Kinsman wanted to […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 19th, 2021 Whether commuting to work or simply having fun around town, riding a bike can be a great way to get exercise while also enjoying the scenery. However, riding around on the road presents a danger as cars or other cyclists / pedestrians might not be paying attention while you […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 17th, 2021 While thinking of an interesting project to create, Hackster user marcaubin started to imagine an audio spectrum visualizer, but not a traditional one that has a matrix of LEDs with columns corresponding to certain frequencies. Instead, his device would have just a single vertical NeoPixel strip featuring 29 LEDs in total, […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesThis may be one of the cheapest and easiest CNC drawing machines you’ll find Arduino Team — July 15th, 2021 CNC plotters are a lot of fun to build and use, as they teach mechanics, electronics, and how G-code works. However, traditional Cartesian machines often require expensive components such as linear rods and ample amounts […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 15th, 2021 [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ieil0NQlk_M?feature=oembed&w=500&h=281] Near-field communication, or NFC for short, has started popping up everywhere as a way to easily pay, unlock doors, or even start a car. And now it can do one more thing: locate and track objects within a room. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University’s Laboratory for Emerging […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 14th, 2021 Human-to-computer interfaces are nothing new, but they are often difficult to set up or use in more hobby-oriented applications. The team of Ezra Boley and Finn Kuusisto is setting out to change this with their FANTM EMG Arduino Uno shield. It uses a series of conductive pads that pick up […]
Reading Time: 2 minutes‘Droop, There It Is!’ is a smart irrigation system that uses ML to visually diagnose drought stress Arduino Team — July 13th, 2021 Throughout the day as the sun evaporates the water from a plant’s leaves via a process called transpiration, observers will notice that they tend to get a little bit droopy. Also known as […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 13th, 2021 Some sundials are as simple as a stick pushed into the dirt, but they’re still reliable and accurate. The sun is, after all, quite consistent. But there are some caveats. The Earth’s orbit and its rotational tilt mean that the lengths of our days are variable and that means […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino Team — July 12th, 2021 We wanted to let you know about some scheduled maintenance we’ll be performing on Wednesday, July 14th, 2021. Short loss of Arduino Cloud and Education services The maintenance is planned between 7AM and noon (12PM CEST) on July 14th. During this time we’ll need to take Arduino Cloud and […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesThe Baldcorder is James Lewis’ tricorder-like device for measuring light levels and temperature Arduino Team — July 11th, 2021 As part of element14’s Build Inside the Box Challenge, James Lewis (AKA Bald Engineer) decided to make his own DIY tricoder from Star Trek. In the series, a tricoder is a ubiquitous scanning tool that can perform various scans of […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino Team — July 9th, 2021 USB cables come in a variety of shapes and sizes, with a different of internal connections that may be unknown to the user. For an easy way to figure out these connections, and to diagnose if the cable itself is faulty, TechKiwiGadgets has come up the Arduino Cable Tracer. […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 8th, 2021 NASA’s history is full of fascinating facts and trivia. For example, the Apollo Guidance Computer, which handled navigation and control for both the Apollo Command Module and the Apollo Lunar Module, ran with less RAM and processing power than a TI-83 graphing calculator. But reading that fact isn’t the […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 8th, 2021 Nixie tubes are fun little devices that act like seven-segment display modules in that they can be lined up together in order to form a larger number by showing digits 0 through 9. One maker, Marcin Saj, has created a unique project that uses a series of six Nixie tubes that […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 7th, 2021 Tactile displays are one of the neatest ways to interact with how data is displayed, as it can not only be seen, but also felt. However, these kinds of systems are often quite expensive due to their complex nature, which is why Jason Higgins wanted to create his own pin display that he […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 7th, 2021 Nixie tubes are a great throwback to an era before the advent of LED and LCD screens; however, they often require expensive components or complex programming to operate. This challenge is what inspired Doug Domke to come up with his own solution that only costs $110. His design incorporates the Arduino MKR WiFi […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — July 6th, 2021 All too often, those who are new to Arduino struggle with creating large projects due to a lack of experience and components.
