About this project This is a Robot Arm with 5-axis range of motion allowing movements similar to assembly line robots. It was designed to offer the highest quality while remaining one of the most affordable robotic arms on the market. Three years ago, we created MandleBot, a 5-axis aluminum robotic arm currently being used in schools, […]

This project uses an Arduino, a pair of speakers, and a laser pointer to create a laser projector able to trace out designs in a dark room. To power it, I’ve cannibalized a PC ATX power supply capable of delivering plenty of current for the speakers. Most of this project was directly adapted from the

Swiss scientists have created the first semiconductor laser consisting solely of elements of main group IV (the carbon group) on the periodic table. Simply, this means that the new device is directly compatible with other elements in that group – such as silicon, carbon, and lead – and so can be directly incorporated in a

*** I AM THIRTEEN. I REALLY ENJOY PUTTING TOGETHER THESE INSTRUCTABLES. PLEASE SHOW SUPPORT BY VOTING FOR ME IN THE LASER CUTTER CONTEST – http://www.instructables.com/contest/epilog3/*** I started thinking about this project a couple of months ago now. A laser tripwire that can log when the beam is broken and has the ability to take a

Last year MediaInteractiveDesign and PlayModes , two interactive design and creative technology studios based in Catalonia, collaborated to develop a system to control DIY Laser robot. They created a new shield to control Dinamyxel servomotors to work with PWM laser drivers. The shield works using Arduino Ethernet programmed with a specific firmware to control laser and motor using

This summer, my hackerspace LVL1 (in Louisville, Ky) got an awesome laser cutter http://fslaser.com/40w-deluxe-hobby-laser-engraver-and-cutter. LVL1 is an awesome community of creative folks that like to build stuff. You can always check out what we are up to at http://www.lvl1.org. If you like instructables and making stuff, you should see if there is a hackerspace in

The laser harp is a musical instrument made of light. A fan of beams shoots up from the floor into the night sky. The performer can create music by placing their hands in the beams. Not only does “breaking” the beam produce notes, but sliding the hand along the beam will also change the sound.
