This DIY shuttle mission control box looks like a blast!
Becoming an astronaut is probably one of the top careers on any child’s list, but it’s not all that practical, especially when they’re still seven years old. That’s why Gordon Callison wanted to create a virtual shuttle mission control game that simulates a space shuttle launch with tons of different features for his kid to use. The project he […]
Slot machine piggy bank makes saving your coins more fun
There’s really no joy in saving money until it comes time to spend it, of course. But in an effort to gamify things a bit, YouTuber “Max 3D Design” has come up with a beautiful slot machine that surely puts a spin on traditional piggy banks. The device itself was modeled in Fusion 360 and […]
This haptic device lets you feel the hair of virtual reality animals
When it comes to virtual reality, the challenge isn’t displaying convincing visuals — VR headset manufacturers have already figured that out. The real challenge is how to tickle our other senses, like smell, taste, and especially touch. To give people the ability to feel the fur of animals in VR, engineers have built this strange […]

This pendulum POV clock uses a Nixie tube to plot the time as it swings
Pendulum clocks are generally mechanical devices that time each second as it ticks away, but do little else. Jayzon Oeve’s concept, however, places the face itself – a single IN-12B Nixie tube – onto the end of a wooden pendulum. As it swings back and forth, four digits are progressively shown on the tube to […]
The View-Remaster is an automated View-Master reel scanner
Many of us have probably come across a View-Master reel at one point or another. They are those little disks that contain pairs of images for viewing through a special headset. When illuminated through the back, images can spring to life with both vivid colors and even captions, akin to an early VR headset. However, […]
NFCSense can detect the movement of objects using only NFC tags
NFC (Near-Field Communication) technology is generally used for identification, because NFC tags can carry a substantial amount of data, like a unique identifier or a text file, without a battery. But NFC readers are capable of reading tags quite quickly, which is a feature that is largely ignored. NFCSense, created by Rong-Hao Liang and Zengrong […]
Arduino plays the Chrome Dinosaur Game on another Arduino
There has been a trend over the past few years to automate certain games using microcontrollers — especially mobile ones. But none are perhaps as popular as the Dinosaur Game that shows up whenever the Chrome browser lacks an Internet connection. The game is simple: just tap or click to make the little T-Rex jump […]
Mr Innovative’s resistor cutting machine is ‘reely’ awesome
If you need some help separating out lots of resistors, then Mr Innovative’s latest automated rig is the perfect solution for you. At the heart of his homemade device is an Arduino Nano, along with a multipurpose PCB for electrical connections and a touchscreen user interface. The machine advances the reel of resistors through a slot via […]
