Create this card-dealing robot to streamline your poker nights
If you’ve ever dealt cards the “wrong way” among serious poker players, then you know that some people do not take the dealing process lightly. You must deal cards in the proper order, one to each player before starting back at the first, without ever showing a card. If that sounds like a hassle, you […]
See how Nikodem Bartnik integrated LIDAR room mapping into his DIY robotics platform
As part of his ongoing autonomous robot project, YouTuber Nikodem Bartnik wanted to add LIDAR mapping/navigation functionality so that his device could see the world in much greater resolution and actively avoid obstacles. In short, LIDAR works by sending out short pulses of invisible light and measuring how much time it takes for the beam to reflect off an […]

Portenta Cat. M1/NB IoT GNSS Shield: Connectivity and positioning for your boards
The brand new Portenta Cat. M1/NB IoT GNSS Shield adds global connectivity and positioning capabilities to Arduino’s Portenta and MKR boards.
This contactless system combines embedded ML and sensors to improve elevator safety
As an entry into the 5th IEEE National Level Project Competition, Anway Pimpalkar and his team wanted to design a system that could help improve safety and usability within elevators by detecting if a human is present, the floor they wish to travel towards, and automatically go to the ground floor in the event of a fire. For determining when […]

Instead of sensing the presence of metal, this tinyML device detects rock (music)
After learning about the basics of embedded ML, industrial designer and educator Phil Caridi had the idea to build a metal detector, but rather than using a coil of wire to sense eddy currents, his device would use a microphone to determine if metal music is playing nearby. Caridi started out by collecting around two hours […]

Reverse engineering an ’80s NeXT keyboard
Working with vintage computer technology can feel a bit like the digital equivalent of archeology. Documentation is often limited or altogether absent today — if it was ever even public in the first place. So you end up reverse engineering a device’s functionality through meticulous inspection and analysis. Spencer Nelson has a vintage NeXT keyboard […]
This dad converted a Power Wheels into a DIY fire truck toy, complete with a siren and lights
After searching everywhere for an affordable ride-on fire truck toy for his daughter this past Christmas season YouTuber Jason Altice (AKA CodeMakesItGo) had nearly given up, but luckily enough was able to locate a free Grave Digger Power Wheels that he could modify into one. In its current condition, the vehicle was in bad shape so it […]
This Arduino monitor helps prevent bedridden patients from getting pressure sores and more
For people who are recovering from a major surgery or those who have a disability, ensuring proper posture while lying down for extended periods of time is vital for reducing joint pain and other ailments that come about from a lack of movement, including pressure sores. Rodrigo Mejiasz’s project aims to solve the issue by using a small […]
Capture macro photos with this Arduino-powered platform
Getting that perfect up-close macro shot is touch, especially since even the smallest movement can throw off a focused image or make the subject leave the frame. This need for stability and precision is what drove Kike Glez (AKA ‘TelekikeG’ on Instructables) to build a motorized photography platform that would be able to gradually move closer/further away relative […]
