Luca Di Lorenzo (@LucaDilo on YouTube) recently worked with us on what was meant to be a simple robot assistant, but soon became something much more fun: a tiny, expressive desktop companion that notices you, listens to you, and talks back. Based on the Arduino® UNO™ Q board, Nuvi is designed to run everything it needs […]
Expense calculations in the industrial world tend to be unintuitive to individuals, because service and maintenance often consume larger chunks of the budget than the equipment itself. For that reason, modifications to equipment are usually seen as too risky to justify — they can too easily impact serviceability. So, what do you do when you […]
Go on your favorite online shopping platform, and you’ll find any number of smart doorbell options. Click to purchase, have it delivered, install it, download some app. But where’s the fun in that? And also, don’t you wonder how that thing works? That thing that watches you and your loved ones go in and out, […]
The heart of the entire cyberdeck movement is personalization. Instead of shopping within the limits of what manufacturers deem to be marketable, cyberdeck builders can create designs that reflect their own personal tastes. But even so, most cyberdecks fit within a fairly narrow aesthetic—usually some variation of cyberpunk or cassette futurism, fitting the original Gibson […]
Every day, hundreds of thousands of kits are prepared in warehouses before components ever reach an automotive production line. While robots have become commonplace in modern manufacturing, many upstream logistics activities still rely heavily on human operators performing repetitive pick-and-place and kitting tasks. What if robots could learn these operations the same way humans do: […]
A lot of newer 3D printers incorporate sophisticated sensor suites and cameras to detect problems with print jobs, like the dreaded “spaghetti failure.” Those work pretty well and prevent wasted time, wasted filament, and even damage to the printer. But what if you don’t have a printer with those features? Or if you want to […]
What happens when you combine a little imagination with a powerful dual-brain board and a handful of building-block sensors? In the case of Arduino community member LucaDilo, you get a reaction game that doesn’t simply wait for someone to press a button… it actually notices when you walk up and invites you to play. Reflexes […]
For years, bringing real intelligence to industrial automation meant expensive infrastructure, proprietary systems, and steep learning curves. That’s changing – fast. Foundation models powerful enough to run at the edge are turning natural language into machine control, and the factory floor is starting to look a lot more like a conversation. AI as the new […]
Pietro Maria Piazza, Alessandro Nesci, Davide Santucci, and Matteo Angiolillo are not waiting to finish school before starting to build something real. Based in Forlì, Italy, the four friends behind Blue Proton Initiative strive to develop an AI-powered livestock monitoring system designed to help farmers identify individual animals and detect early signs of health problems […]
Anyone working with electronics will, inevitably, end up with a large selection of various components — after all, you’ll buy a lot of them in bulk quantities that exceed what you actually need for the project at hand. Soon, you’ll have boxes and drawers full of components that you don’t even remember, which means you’ll […]
