[Scott Rumschlag] wanted a way to precisely map interior spaces for remodeling projects, but did not want to deal with the massive datasets created by optical 3D scanning, and found the precision of the cost-effective optical tools lacking. Instead, he built a 3D cable measuring device that can be used to map by using a manual probe […]

Who wouldn’t want an autonomous drone to deliver cans of fizzy drink fresh from the fridge? [Alex Toussaint] did, and in thinking how such a machine might work he embarked on a path that eventually led him to create a fully functional ultrasonic 3D scanner. In writing it up he’s produced a straightforward description of how the

I’m a big fan of building sumo robots and I’m always on the look for new interesting sensors and materials to use to build a better, faster, smarter robot. I found out about the RPLIDAR A1 which you can get for $99 at DFROBOT.com . I said I was interested in trying out this sensor and they

We were meant to make a functional prototype using some different arduino sensors so our choice has been to develop a turret with a cannon that fires a bullet to an object that the scanner has detected. The functioning of the turret starts with the constant movement of the scanner doing a 180 degree sweep,

Laser technology from Osram transforms smartphones into beamers. Green lasers for projector applications need to have not only outstanding beam characteristics but also a high optical performance in order to deliver sharp and bright images. Although a projector also needs red and blue lasers, green is the crucial color in RGB solutions – and also
Osram enables projections with the smartphone Continue Reading
SuperB is an open source, Bee–compatible ESP32 module for quickly and easily adding Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to your project. It combines the popularity of ESP32 with the XBee form factor to achieve an easy way of adding wireless connection to your board. It was originally build for use with Macchina M2 ODB2 scanner, check details

I’m going to realize the famous Ciclop 3D scanner. All the step that are well explained on the original project aren’t present. I made some fix to simplify the process, first I print the base, and than I restilize the PCB, but go on. Step 1: Printing and Assembly Part For assembly part the best solution is to refer

Now, you can easily track attendance and clock working hours with the help of this easy and fun to make DIY fingerprint scanner! We’ll be using ThingSpeak to store and retrieve the data. All you require is a cardboard piece, some colored paper, a fingerprint sensor, evive, and lots of DIYing! Ready for some scanning
Ordinary digital cameras work by using a large array of light sensors to capture light as it is reflected from an object. In this experiment, I wanted to see whether I could build a backwards camera: instead of having an array of light sensors, I have just a single sensor; but I control each of
