Using a little Arduino hardware and programming YouTuber Brumberjack Woodworks has created a fantastic automatic dust collection system for his workshop. Providing an easy way to collect dust from any of the machines he may be using. Equipped with servo mounted blast gates the desk collection system Arduino code is available to download from GitHub from the link below. Check out the overview […]
AppliedSBC has created a new Internet of Things based indoor gas monitor using Arduino technology and more specifically the Nano 33 IoT board to control several different sensors. The Airio Explorer 1 sensor is the first product in the range and is now available to purchase price state $589. Specifications for the indoor gas monitor solution include : CO2 Gas 0-2000ppm, ±10%, O2
It has been a while since we’ve seen a 86Duino, but [TheRasteri] reminded us about it, with his video showing how to use one to run classic MS-DOS games. To be fair, the computer isn’t really an Arduino, it’s essentially a tiny 486 PC on an Arduino-style PCB. If it were just running DOS games on
In the world of hardware hacking, you sometimes spend a ridiculous amount of time debugging a problem, only to find a simple solution that was right in front of you the whole time. [Zack Freedman] got a good dose of this while building the Optigon V2, a modified Epson Moverio wearable display he uses as a
CUTTING A WEARABLE DISPLAY IN HALF IS HARDER AND SIMPLER THAN IT SEEMS Continue Reading
Makers, engineers and hobbyists who would like to automatically manufacture a variety of different size plastic gears you might be interested in a unique machine built using a little Arduino hardware, taking the form of the plastic gear cutting machine. Powered by an Arduino Nano microcontroller the gear cutter has been created by YouTuber Mr Innovative and allows you to build your
We were impressed with [moononournation’s] tiny thin client project. It claims to use an Arduino, but as you might guess it is using the Arduino software along with a network-enabled microcontroller like an ESP32. The impressive part is that it is standards-compliant and implements VNC’s RFB protocol. The original coding for RFB on Arduino is from [Links2004] and
[Louise Katzovitz] has created a light-up jacket in the style of the jacket worn by Michael Jackson in the 1983 music video for “Thriller”. [Louise Katzovitz]’s Thriller jacket is the perfect example of combining sewing hacks and electronic hacks to make an awesome, wearable jacket. A bomber jacket was used as the base form to layer on
We’ve seen plenty of people 3D printing custom gears over the years, but [Mr Innovative] decided against an additive process for his bespoke component. He ended up using a simple CNC machine that makes use of several components that were either salvaged from a 3D printer or produced on one. Using a small saw blade, the machine
Older hackers will remember that a crystal set radio receiver was often one of the first projects attempted. Times have changed, but there’s still something magical about gathering invisible signals from the air and listening to the radio on a homemade receiver. [mircemk] has brought the idea right up to date by building an FM radio with
They say that the two essential items in any toolbox are WD-40 and duct tape: one thing to make stuff move and another thing to stop stuff from moving. Many hackers would argue that the third essential tool should be hot glue — it stops stuff from moving, but still allows you to move it
