Another quick hack. I purchased a voice changer because I was looking for something cheap that could be hacked into an voice input device. Basically I wanted to animate a skull when I spoke. Added bonus, now the skull puppet would also have a scary voice. I am going to show you how to hack […]

UPDATE (8/29/13): Thank you readers for your enthusiasm and kind remarks regarding this project! It has been a tremendous journey since I started this project back in March, but I am very glad with the resulting product and the excitement with which it has been received by the maker community. Happy building! -Cyrus Do you like

I adopted a cat a couple of weeks ago (Figure 2&3). To celebrate, I wanted to make a cat whisker sensory extension puppet that looks like my cat! This project will show you how to create a computationally enriched puppet that has whiskers. The Puppet (who I call Mr. Bits) has four flex sensors attached

This instructable will guide you through the process of making your very own star-cluster from LEDs and acrylic. I made this piece for my electronics final project at college and had access to a machine shop. This instructable assumes that you have access to similar tools. This project was very much inspired by http://www.instructables.com/id/working-progress-n-how-to-make-a-multilayered-a/#step8. Step 1:
3-dimensional Star Cluster using an Arduino Continue Reading
Gliderscore is a program developed by Gerry Carter that not only scores a model plane flying competition, but provides timing for the various flying tasks One feature of Gliderscore Timer is that it outputs a Serial ASCII string that contains the countdown time, the group , the round and whether it is working time or
Arduboy is an open source credit card size gaming console that has an active community not only on its software where alot of people develop their own game for the platform but also on its hardware where there are also alot of people came up with their own custom arduboy hardware. I personally cannot afford to buy the
Lite Brite pegs look like LED’s don’t they? That’s what I though the other day after working on an LED cube for a few hours. I happened to see my daughter’s Lite Brite sitting there, and I looked at the pile of LED’s on my desk. What a perfect match! In this instructable I will
Their are many people who are struggling to make projects that are needed for their daily needs. One of the major example is none other than room automation. Even though many of the room automation setup cost a little bit higher can’t we make it little bit cheaper. Can’t we make it using the Arduino’s
Sensors are one of the crucial things when it comes to building projects/robots. Many a times the sensor might be not available locally or it might take too long to ship. Smart phone have most of the basic sensors like proximity, accelerometer, light, magnetometer, gyroscope, etc. embedded and we can in fact use these sensors

Make a 3D interface using an six resistors, aluminum foil, and an Arduino. Take that, Wii. Update: a much more thorough explanation of this project is available from Make Magazine. It might be easier to follow their instructions, and I think their code is more up to date. The basic goal here was to make
