This robotic bartender serves up drinks using a Nano RP2040 Connect and the Arduino Cloud
Mixing up perfect, custom cocktails often requires months or even years of training, in addition to having to know a plethora of recipes. But Jithin Sanal wanted to pour his favorite drinks without spending the extra time and effort, so he concocted a robotic cocktail mixer to perform this task for him. It operates by using a series of […]

Keeping things creative: Real-world learning from a remote perspective
Find out why the Arduino Education Engineering Kit is perfect for teaching mechatronics remotely.
Flingbot is a robot that flings paint at a canvas to create art
Jackson Pollock was famous for his unique style of splattering large blobs of paint across a canvas, and it was this technique that JBV Creative was trying to imitate. But rather than working by hand to painstakingly dip a brush into paint and then fling it many times over, he wanted to build a robot that could […]
Zom-B-Gone! is an artificial sunrise lamp to combat morning grumpiness
Almost no one enjoys being awakened by a loud alarm clock as the sudden rush of panic can contribute to grogginess and stress. To alleviate this problem, Simen Sørensen of the Applied Procrastination YouTube channel decided to create a lamp that simulates a sunrise to give him a calmer, more natural wake-up experience. His design […]
Repurposing the VFD unit from an old Epson POS display using Arduino
For many makers, it’s always fun to take some piece of old technology and give it a new lease on life, especially when the item in question was destined for the landfill. This is what prompted Alastair Aitchison — better known on YouTube as Playful Technology — to grab a deprecated vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) module […]
Handy machine cuts heat shrink tubing to length
Solder joints on PCBs don’t usually require extra protection, but loose wires are a different story. Because they can move around and touch each other or the enclosure, you need to protect the bare wire from shorts. Most people use either electrical tape or heat shrink tubing for the job. But cutting heat shrink tubing […]
TinySewer is a Portenta-powered camera module for sewer faults detection
We all interact with the sewer system at multiple points throughout the day, and having it fail can lead to catastrophic results. Every year in the United States alone, an estimated 23,000 to 75,000 sewer pipe failures are reported, which means billions of gallons of untreated and hazardous waste is released into the environment. But […]
