How to Build a Midbar ESP8266 Version
Posted on: 06 Apr 2024
A while ago, I made the ESP32 version of Midbar which later evolved into a multi-user Cipherbox. While developing the Cipherbox, I realized that even the Lite version of it might be too expensive and too redundant for some people, so I “resurrected” the single-user Midbar project and made an ESP8266 version of it. The purpose of Midbar is to […]
Marblevator, Perpetual?, Cradle.
Posted on: 06 Apr 2024
“Marblevator, Pertual?, Cradle” like “Marblevator, Perpetual?, Version 2” and “Marblevator, Perpetual?” is not perpetual at all as it is simply another illusion. And like its predecessors it is a very quiet illusion with the only noise being that of the marble as it rolls back and forth in the cradle. I’ve incorporated an Arduino Nano […]
Remote Controlled Car Using Cardboard
Posted on: 06 Apr 2024
Every maker at least once make or tries to make RC Car. RC Cars are widely available yet the joy of playing with the one you made yourself can’t be compared with the bought one. So I decided to make a Wireless RC Car with the easiest available material i.e. Cardboard. No need for a […]
