Circuit Milling With Roland iModela, Now Available on Arduino Store
[Enrico Bassi] from FablabTorino brought to the extent the use of the Roland iModela, using the little (and inexpensive) desktop milling machine for pcb milling. (in the picture we milled the overexposed Fritzing Parking Assistant). He wrote some Scuola Lessons (here’s the first) to explain how he realized the pcb, starting from Fritzing. Roland iModela […]
Portable, DIY Disco Dance Floor
[Rave Rover’s Chris Williamson] made a portable DIY dancefloor, sharing instructions and schematics. Like with many projects similar to this, an Arduino board controls pretty much everything. The floor is dominated by powerful LED lights, which respond to a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). A small computer is also inside (complete with Wi-fi), along with a car […]
