Take things up a notch by turning the humble OLED into a rotary dial
The 128×64 I2C/SPI OLED display is often included in a myriad of projects that need some way to show data, including text, shapes, or basic graphs. YouTuber ‘upir’ was able to take this concept one step further by turning his graphic OLED screen into a virtual circular dial that can respond in real-time to an external potentiometer […]
Ultrasonic array provides lip stimulation within VR
Virtual reality technology is advancing quickly and today’s headsets provide a very immersive visual and auditory experience. But they neglect the other senses. Haptic feedback, via vibration motors in controllers, is the only common technique for imparting a sense of touch. While haptic vests and other experimental devices exist, consumers continue to show that they […]
This EV charger packs an Arduino-based DIY solution in a commercial enclosure
The rapid adoption of electric vehicles over the last decade has required the installation of additional infrastructure to support them, namely high-voltage chargers that can deliver enough current to the batteries for fast recharging. But due to their potentially high cost, James Fotherby decided to design and build his own 7.2kW charging solution that was simultaneously cheap, […]

Arduino-controlled CNC engraver uses solar power
Usually when we use the term “solar power,” we are referring to indirect energy use: photovoltaic solar panels collect energy from the sun and then either pass it along to a device or store it for later use. But some systems can use power from the sun in a more direct manner. If you’ve ever […]
This realistic control panel takes the flight simulator experience to new heights
For years, Pedro Gonzalez Sanchez has enjoyed airplanes and flight simulators. However, coming back to the simulator after a long hiatus of not playing meant that he would often forget the controls which led to unwanted situations. As a solution, he came up with the idea to build the PGS-2 Flight Simulator Control Panel — […]

Google’s Arduino-powered devices provide soothing signals
Our days are full of devices trying their best to grab our attention, from a computer dinging when a new email hits to a smartphone vibrating every time an app wants to sell something. If you’re like most people, the vast majority of those notifications are irritating. But they are still necessary in many cases. […]
This chocolate bunny screams when it’s eaten
Bunnies made from chocolate are staples around springtime, and unlike actual rabbits, they don’t mind being consumed. But YouTuber Repeated Failure decided to introduce a little bit of macabre humor by causing the chocolate bunnies to begin screaming as they’re devoured. The first challenge was figuring out how to detect that the bunny is being eaten. The first […]
