Hi everyone, I work as a builder even though I’ve been always really interested in new technologies. I’ve learned a little about 3d printing, Arduino and electronic issues reading a lot. I visit this web regularly so I would like to make my little contribution. In my job sometimes it is not so easy to […]

This project is to create an Infrared Remote Control to control the Original Cybot received with the magazine Ultimate Real Robots, started back in 2001. Reason for making the remote:(a little history) Before the issue of the parts for the IR handset, Cybot was put into different modes by selecting DIP Switches. (There was no […]

Have you built a macro keypad yet? This is one of those projects where the need can materialize after the build is complete, because these things are made of wishes and upsides. A totally customized, fun build that streamlines processes for both work and play? Yes please. The only downside is that you actually have […]

Give your grizzled and cramped hands a break from stuffing boards with surface mount components. This is the job of pick and place machine, and over the years these tools of the trade for Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) have gotten closer to reality for the home shop; with some models diving below the $10,000 […]

So this Lazy Old Geek (L.O.G.) hasn’t been able to do an Instructable for a few years. At 70 years old, the brain doesn’t work as well as it used to and it’s hard to focus on big projects let alone try to write about them. (I am entering Arduino Contest.) But with the help […]

This project allow us to simulate presence and to detect movements in our home. We can configure a network of devices installed in differents rooms of our home all of them controlled by a main device. This project combines these features on a single device (PICTURE 1): It is a presence simulator: the device switchs on and off one […]

[Harrison] has been busy finding the sweeter side of quarantine by building a voice-controlled, face-tracking M&M launcher. Not only does this carefully-designed candy launcher have control over the angle, direction, and velocity of its ammunition, it also locates and locks on to targets by itself. Here comes the science: [Harrison] tricked Alexa into thinking the Raspberry […]

I recently finished the installation Equally diverse, which is made of a series of lamps that react to the sensors placed in a rug underneath the lamps.Here is how I made the rug with pressure sensors.I hope you will find it useful. 🙂 Step 1: How to Make the Sensors For the pressure sensors, I […]

We’ll be making a diorama presenting the water cycle, using Arduino and some motors to add movement and lighting. It has a school feel – because it is actually a school project! The presentation scenario is this: The sun rises in the morning [One servo motor moves the sun]. Water evaporates from the sea [One […]

This car was made as a creative activity for students from Erazmus project. The Small Car celebrated big succes. So I’ve decided to share this small, unassuming and yet very educative project with community. It’s ideal to entertain students, for instance during public open day at schools. This project will help students master their 3D […]
