His DIY device named “Tomo,” for friend, displays a digital companion on its […]
Reading Time: 5 minutesMachine learning (ML) algorithms come in all shapes and sizes, each with their own trade-offs. We continue our exploration of TinyML on Arduino with a look at the Arduino KNN library. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6B7MLs3Eyo?feature=oembed&w=500&h=281] In addition to powerful deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow for Arduino, there are also classical ML approaches suitable for smaller data sets […]
Reading Time: 3 minutes“Not many smart doorbells have a screen for the visitor and I thought creating one would be fun,” explains Aaron Tainter. Deciding that his project could also double as a video intercom system if he produced more than one device, he soon got down to work. He figured the system could connect to a virtual […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino barrel piano plays encoded sheet music Arduino Team — June 17th, 2020 Max Danilin created an automatic barrel piano that outputs MIDI signals, not through an SD card or internal memory, but by reading sheet music encoded on paper as black dots and dashes. The sheet is pulled under an array of 40 optocouplers using a […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino 1.8.13 has been released Arduino Team — June 17th, 2020 Today, we are excited to announce the arrival of the Arduino IDE 1.8.13. Significant improvements include fixing the crash on Mac OS X with multiple monitor setups and resolving the recent package_index.json issue without other user intervention. You will also notice that the boards […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteVisualize noise pollution with an Arduino sound meter Arduino Team — June 16th, 2020 In our day-to-day lives we encounter a wide variety of ambient sounds, and in order to highlight noise pollution, Lucía Garbo decided to make an elegant meter. The device features an outer shell designed in Fusion 360 and 3D-printed, concealing an Arduino […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino-based inkjet printer slowly but surely gets the job done Arduino Team — June 16th, 2020 As a prototype for a continuously printing art project, Norbert (AKA “HomoFaciens”) has built an inkjet printer that uses an Arduino and the mechanics of a discarded 3D printer to slowly generate black and white images. The hacked together assembly […]
