Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino-powered omni robot gets an upgrade Arduino Team — January 29th, 2019 When we last saw this omni robot by Jeremy S. Cook, it was lurching around under Arduino Nano and Bluetooth command. After much work, he finally has it to a state where it rolls nicely on a flat surface—even carrying a little strandbeest […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesMotorize a manual standing desk Arduino Team — January 29th, 2019 Martin Mihálek took the leap into standing desks, and purchased a SKARSTA table from IKEA. Although being able to adjust things by hand is useful, who wants to do that nowadays? Instead of manually cranking it every time, he—with help from iLLiac4—decided to augment […]

This year, we’re further strengthening our STEAM-focused offerings across the spectrum with the first-ever kit for middle schoolers, the Arduino Science Kit Physics Lab, developed in […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteMake a mini CNC drawing machine Arduino Team — January 21st, 2019 For an easy plotter design that you can build with only simple hand tools, be sure to check out this tiny project from Mr Innovative. The machine features a pair of stepper and lead screw assemblies to maneuver a pen in an X/Y […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesAfter deploying a remote weather station over two years ago, self-proclaimed ugly pirate Tecwyn Twmffat needed a better wireless communication solution. Originally, his installation used a GPRS modem to transmit data over the cellular network, and while this normally worked quite well, the module would get booted off the network during updates. Additionally, its solar […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteA carbon fiber bike filament winder controlled by Arduino Arduino Team — January 18th, 2019 Bryan Kevan wanted to build his own bicycle, but wasn’t satisfied with purchasing a frame—or even ready-made tubing. He instead chose to create the frame from raw strands of carbon fiber. The overall bike build is shown here, which necessitated […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesSeating charts at weddings and other formal events are usually handled by small cards at each table, but Gabrielle Martinfortier had other plans. For her big event, she along with help from her now-husband and friends constructed a seating arrangement on a 3’ x 4’ wood canvas, equipped with a 7” TFT display and an […]
