We’re excited to announce that the official Arduino Amazon Alexa skill now supports television control. You can now securely connect your TV set to Alexa using Arduino IoT Cloud and a few lines of code. Here are some of the features which will be available to you: Power on/off Switch channel Volume up/down/mute Switch input […]
Our dev team is about to kick off their holiday breaks, but not without sharing some exciting news first: the release of arduino-cli 0.7.0! Highlights include: Notarization compliance for macOS Some breaking changes: Remove Sketchbook concept, introduce user data folder “lib list” now returns an empty JSON array when there are no libraries installed Change […]
Astrophotography can be challenging, in a large part because your subject matter — or your base, the Earth rather — is constantly moving. In order to take excellent long exposures of far-off objects, Redditor intercipere came up with a beautiful 3D-printable, star-following mount that holds and rotates a DSLR camera. Now intercipere can simply input […]
Apparently not satisfied with a single PC monitor, aviation enthusiast Ryan H came up with his own custom, 3D-printable cockpit setup for the Garmin G1000 avionics suite. Designed around the X-Plane 11 flight simulator, the system uses a 12.1” LCD panel for flight data along with several additional inputs, all controlled by an Arduino Mega […]
Bob Clagett likes making holiday decorations. This year, however, he wanted to create something that didn’t just look nice, but was also interactive. What he came up with is a giant Christmas tree that is actually a video game! His tree-shaped matrix uses seven rows of RGB LEDs attached to the top of the structure […]
When Amir Avni made a busy board for his then-one-year-old daughter, he left a variety of buttons and switches unconnected. While these were still likely interesting at the time, now that she’s two, he’s added an Arduino Mega-controlled 32×64 LED panel to the rig, taking advantage of these formerly unused input devices. The busy board […]
While you may know on some level that an Arduino can help you make music, you probably haven’t seen as good an implementation as this MIDI controller by Switch & Lever. The device features a numeric pad for note input, which can also be used as a drum pad, and a variety of knobs and […]
Unless you’re very good, personal synths are fun for you — though often quite annoying for onlookers. After making his own wristwatch-based synth in 2016, Clem Mayer decided to build a new version that’s larger and louder than ever, and programmable via an Arduino controller. Mayer chose the MKR WiFi 1010 here to take advantage of its […]
Robot-sumo bouts can be a great way to pit your automation skills against others. Participating normally means a lot of hard work to get your bot functioning properly, and likely a fair amount of travel to meet your opponents. SurrogateTV, however, has a new alternative with their SumoBots Battle Royale game that allows you to […]
Portal 2 is one of RobotsWithRyan’s favorite games, so he — of course — decided to build his own personality core character from this title. His Space Core is 3D-printed from a model that he found online, scaled up by 300% to fit the electronics inside, including an Arduino Uno and eight servo actuators. As […]
