After posting up the v1 of my project many people requested an more detailed instructable. So i decided to start with a new one with a little upgrades to my previous instructable. What does this thing do? Well its quite simple it is just an replacement for an distance tape. It can also measure temperature, […]

2 Ways to Papercraft Stopmotion
Good morning, please take a seat and watch that tofu wobble. This is not CGI, it is honest work of a papercraftsman. These are, in fact, 16 different papercubes that switch places in each frame. That technique is commonly known as replacement stopmotion. Problem: It only works on the screen and not in reality. Therefore, some […]
Building an Open Archival Scanning Robot Using Python and Arduino
Project Gado is an initiative which aims to create an open-source archival scanning robot which small archives can purchase for $500 and use to autonomously scan their photographic collections. This talk presents the Gado 2, a prototype
Bird cage LED daylight simulation system
Sometimes you get a chance to combine helping out your family with a nice hobby project.. In this case my father in law was looking for a lighting system for his bird breeding cages. A daylight simulation system to be exact. He asked me to take a look at a website which sells such systems, […]
Arduino Solar Shield – A DIY solar source for your projects without waiting for PCBs
This instructable is a basic version of Bley Joel’s (“It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday, the regular crowd shuffles in”) Solar Shield, and it should work for most arduinos. I’ve tested it with SparkFun’s Arduino Pro, and the new Leonardo. Myself and the other Solar Pocketeers* are actually waiting for a new set of PCBs […]

Ariadne – a 1st person maze on a 16×2 LCD using Arduino
This game is a homage to Ariadne, the maze-generator from Inception 🙂 If you haven’t seen the movie yet – watch this video again after you do (you can also watch it now – it’s not a spoiler, it’s just funnier for inception-vets). The nice thing about it is that it’s a 1st-person game, so when you […]
Arduino Control DC Motor via Bluetooth
Hi guys, In this project we will control a DC motor with a smartphone via bluetooth. This project is great to learn more about: -DC motor -Interfacing Arduino with your smartphone -Bluetooth module -L293D you can visit my website for more electronic projects, interesting news and tips: http://randomnerdtutorials.wordpress.com/ Step 2: Schematics and common mistakes Two […]
DIY BioPrinter With Biological Materials Using Arduino
Bioprinting is printing with biological materials. Think of it as 3D printing, but with squishier ingredients! There’s a lot of work being done at research labs and big companies like Organovo on print human tissues and human organs, with an eye towards drug testing, and transplantation into humans. Check out these amazing TED talks by […]
Simple RC car for beginners (Android control over Bluetooth)
This is a simple project of Android Bluetooth Car with Bluetooth control. Arduino controller is used To control the car used Android-device with a built-in accelerometer. Tilt forward – car goes forward, tilt to the left – car turns to the left, tilt back – car goes back. Speed of movement or rotation depends on how […]
