What is the bare minimum you need for a viable vehicle? If you have the right technology, the answer is “a wheel and a place to put your feet.” John Dingley and Nick Thatcher started building such single-wheeled vehicles in 2008 and the culmination of their efforts is the Mega-Wheelie. The Mega-Wheelie is a self-balancing, […]
It’s that time of year again. The leaves are turning brown, the air is turning crisp. The nights are slowly drawing in, and pumpkin spice lattes are popping up on chalkboards outside every coffee shop in the Northern Hemisphere. For those of us in the maker community, though, the month of October means only one […]
Everyone in the world of smart and digital automation is getting ready to meet at SPS in Nuremberg. It’s the place to be if you want to see the future come to life – and of course a great opportunity to get to know Arduino better, with live demos and the chance to talk directly […]
Modern devices rely heavily on touchscreens because they allow for dynamic interfaces that aren’t possible with conventional tactile buttons. But those interfaces present an issue for people with certain disabilities. A person with vision loss, for example, might not be able to see the screen’s content or its virtual buttons at all. To make touchscreens […]
Arduino is proud to support Soundmit, the synthesizers and electronic instruments expo held in Turin – right from our Italian headquarters, at Toolbox co-working space, on November 11th-12th, 2023. The event’s 13th edition will offer two days of live music, instrument expos, showcases, workshops, and masterclasses with international guests: a must-attend summit for industry professionals […]
Robots with wheels are commonplace and even legged robots have lost some of that allure that comes from new technology. But what else is there? Well, if we look at nature we can see all kinds of interesting ways that critters manage to move around. Worms, for instance, turn wriggling into forward motion, with inchworms […]
Single-board computers (SBCs) are amazing mini powerhouses capable of nearly anything. The undisputed royalty of SBC form factors is our friend, the Raspberry Pi® Model B. An entire ecosystem of expansions, properly called HATs, has formed around its iconic 40-pin double-row header. Today, we are introducing the ultimate mash-up, combining the worlds of SBC and […]
You don’t need to go back more than a century to find people who carried the job title “scientist” without any qualifiers. But as STEM fields advanced, people had to become increasingly specialized in more niche disciplines. In recent years, however, we’ve seen a bit of a reversal in that trend and modern occupations often […]
For well over one hundred years, people have been constructing machines that dispense fortunes to those who ask at the insertion of a coin and the push of a button. In modern days, this has taken the form of mobile apps that can be far more expansive, albeit with a lack of physical interaction. Seeing […]
The large, bubbling cauldron is a classic mainstay in our Halloween decorations as it evokes imagery of devious witches and their mysterious concoctions. Fed up with this being a mere display piece, element14 Presents’ Katie Dumont created an enchanted cauldron that allows visitors to brew their own digital potions from an array of distinct ingredients using a whimsical […]
