People in the western world spend a lot of time sitting. At the desk, driving around, watching TV and more. Sometimes, sitting too much can harm your body and harm your focusing abilities. Walking and standing up after a given time is crucial to perform better in life. As students we spend a lot of […]

Tiny OLED displays are an absolute must-have in the modern parts bin, so what better way to show your allegiance to the maker movement than with a pair of Arduino-compatible OLED glasses? Created by Arduboy mastermind [Kevin Bates], these digital spectacles might not help you see any better — in fact, you’ll see a bit worse […]

Since the ESP8266 came on the scene a few years ago and revolutionized the way microcontrollers communicate with other devices, incremental progress on this chip has occurred at a relatively even pace. First there was the realization that code could be run on the chip itself. Next the ESP32 was released which built more on […]

So we decided to make a giant working gamepad… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The basic idea was to use up some scrap wood and add some inexpensive electronics to make it functional while keeping the overall costs low. I already had most of the materials lying around my garage but you should be able source most of this […]

Now I think just about everybody has a binary clock and here’s my version. What I enjoyed was that this project combined some woodwork, programming, learning, electronics and perhaps just a little artistic creativity. It shows time, month, date, day of week, temperature and humidity on the marble display in a binary form – an […]

This interactive wall art piece is approximately 39″ tall and 24″ wide. I laser cut the wood at Clemson University’s Student Makerspace, then I hand-painted all the triangles and installed the lights on the back of it. This instructable will walk through how I made this exact piece, hopefully the concept of it will inspire […]

We use electricity to move things with the help of motors and magnets all the time. But if you have enough voltage, you can move things with voltage alone. As [James] found out, though, it works best if your objects — ping pong balls, in his case — are conductive. He wanted to add a Van […]

were you always fascinated by RC cars ? Ever wanted to make one yourself ? controlled by your own smartphone ? —-> lets start So, hey guys, here in this project i have tried to make a Bluetooth controlled car with the help of Arduino. I have included each detail so you can understand it […]

A rotary encoder is a great input device for any project such as a 3D printer’s menu. So in this tutorial, we will learn how a rotary encoder works and how to use it with Arduino. So let’s get Started! Step 1: Watch the Video ! If you don’t want to read all the stuff […]

The IoT Cricket (£16) is a small package based on the ubiquitous ESP8266 chipset, popular for its solid wireless LAN support. ESP microcontrollers are widely available and some can be had for just a couple of pounds, so it may come as a surprise to see a British-designed and made product introduced to an already saturated market.
