What time is it there? While it’s easy […]
Reading Time: 5 minutesSome people take things further and use a third-party service to help protect their Raspberry Pi. In this tutorial, we’re taking a look at remote.it to set up a work network using Raspberry Pi as a remote access gateway. With remote.it, you can access a Raspberry Pi remotely without port forwarding. You do this by […]

Reading Time: < 1 minuteRecreating Rosie the Robot with a MKR ZERO Arduino Team — August 3rd, 2020 While 2020 may seem like a very futuristic year, we still don’t have robotic maids like the Jetsons’ Rosie the Robot. For his latest element14 Presents project, DJ Harrigan decided to create such a bot as a sort of animatronic character, using an […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesMany robots use the two wheels of a DC motor to provide tank-like steering. PiCar-V 2.0 takes things up a gear with an additional servo motor to steer the front wheels via a rack mechanism (called the Servo Linkage Plate). A further two servos provide a pan-and-tilt mechanism for the included USB webcam (not an […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesJuuke is an Arduino-powered RFID music player for the elderly Arduino Team — August 1st, 2020 While many of us take playing tunes for granted, whether via MP3s, CDs, or streaming services, for others — such as many that are very young or old — actually figuring out the interface can be a challenge. To […]
