There is a saying: “If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail”. Well, when I see a display, I think of clocks 🙂 I will show you here how to easily make a simple digital clock by hacking Meggy Jr RGB. This is an Arduino-programmable device, featuring an 8×8 RGB LED […]
Ever wonder of copypaste method, usable in real life, not only in virtual reality? Me too. It is 21th century, and those are nearer than most of all can imagine! This is possible thank to 3d scanners and printers. So let’s try to scan something! First of all, sorry for my English skills. It is […]

A 24-hour clock with hour, minute, and second indicators. Here’s the catch, despite being a digital media (LED’s) it is still displaying using an analog method (circles!). I finished making this clock months ago but did not bring it with me to school so I wasn’t able to take pictures and all until now. I […]
In this project using only an Arduino with an Ethernet shield. I’ll be controlling one LED and a servo, but you can apply this method to control a DC motors, buzzers, relays, stepper motors, etc.. Overview: When you upload the the code provided in this tutorials. it creates a webserver in your LAN and you […]
Ever wondered what goes on under the hood of your car? Wish you could peek inside the engine management system and read values from it? Annoyed that your dashboard displays a cryptic “Check Engine” light (yep, the engine is still there) but gives absolutely no explanation what the problem might be? You don’t need a […]
