Wearable glucose monitors in particular provide a convenient way for people to keep an eye on their blood sugar, so they can get the extra insulin […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino Team — May 1st, 2021 In the fictional Marvel Universe, Wolverine has sets of claws that pop out of his hands as if they were natural parts of his body. While a seemingly fantastic concept, myoelectric sensors are able to pick up on muscle movements in order to illicit a response. YouTuber MERT Arduino […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteArduino Team — April 13th, 2021 You can turn on an LED with a button or switch, but what about by bending your finger? Willpower Studios’ textile flex sensor, dubbed Finger Bend, presents a method for such an interface. Inside the custom sleeve is a piece of piezoresistive stretch fabric, which is attached by copper […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — April 2nd, 2021 For a variety of reasons, including potential virus transmission, it’s a bad idea to touch your face too often. If you need a little “help” to break this habit, then you might consider the STOP Face Touching Device by DesignMaker. The system takes the form of a very sci-fi-looking […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteThis DIY watch works but for only a limited amount of time Arduino Team — December 5th, 2020 The Nano is one of our smallest boards, and as YouTuber Craft Channel has proven, it’s tiny enough to act as the brains of a wristwatch. This DIY wearable device features a nicely made wooden enclosure, with […]
