12-ARDUINO ORCHESTRA PLAYS STAR WARS FANFARE

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

Back in the early days of the musical synthesizer, some designers who wished for polyphony in their instruments would simply build multiple tone-generators for as many notes as they wished to play. [Kevin] took that same approach with his Arduino orchestra, and set about having it play the closing number from Star Wars: A New Hope. The

Jupiter Nano open source development board

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

A small yet high-performance computer capable of running Linux will be launching via the Crowd Supply website very soon in the form of the Jupiter Nano. The small open source development board is equipped with a Microchip SAMA5D27C-LD1G running at 498 Mhz and is capable of running NuttX RTOS or Linux. The tiny 48-pin form

ARDUINO COMPATIBLE IR BLASTER KEEPS TVS AT BAY

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

The TV-B-Gone is a well known piece of kit in hacker circles: just point it at a noisy TV in a public space, hit the button, and one of the hundreds of IR remote codes for “Power Off” that it blinks out in rapid succession is more than likely to get the intended response. Unfortunately,

AUTOMATED SENTRY TURRET FOR YOUR SECRET LAB

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

There are few things as frustrating when you’re trying to get some serious hacking done than intruders repeatedly showing up without permission. [All Parts Combined] has the solution for you, with a Kinect-based robotic sentry turret to keep them at bay. The system consists of a Microsoft Kinect V2 connected to a PC, which runs an app

3D-PRINTED SCALE MODEL OF PERSEVERANCE ROVER SEEMS AS COMPLICATED AS THE REAL ONE

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

Sometimes the best way to figure out how something works is to make a model of it. 3D-modeling software makes it possible to do the job in silico, and sometimes that’s enough. But to really get inside the designer’s head, executing a physical model, like this quarter-scale RC-controlled Perseverance rover, is a great way to go. If

HACKING A SOLAR INVERTER RF INTERFACE

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

One of the main advantages of cheap wireless modules is that they get used in consumer electronics, so if you know what’s being used you can build your own compatible hardware. While investigating the RF interface used in a series of cheap “smart” solar inverters [Aaron Christophel], created an Arduino library to receive inverter telemetry using

AUTO-AIMING NERF GUN TO GIVE YOU THE EDGE IN BATTLE

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

Ever wished for some robotic enhancements for your next nerf war? Well, it’s time to dig through the parts bin and build yourself a nerf gun with aimbot built right in, courtesy of [3Dprintedlife]. (Video, embedded below.) The gun started with a design borrowed from [Captain Slug]’s awesome catalog of open source nerf guns. [3Dprintedlife] modified the

ARDUINO VARIOMETER IN A MINT TIN

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

While humans have done a pretty good job of figuring out how to fly with various mechanical contrivances, the fact remains that our natural senses aren’t really well suited to being off the ground. For example, unless you have a visual reference point, determining which way is up is quite a bit harder than you
