While flexible electronics can pose certain advantages, they are often subject to a rather short life, and can be difficult if not impossible to repair. As a solution to this conundrum, researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Tokyo have been exploring a novel material that can fuse itself together automatically, and conduct […]
For the Warman Design and Build Competition in Sydney last month, Redditor ‘Travman_16′ and team created an excellent Arduino-powered entry. The contest involved picking up 20 payloads (AKA balls) from a trough, and delivering them to a target trough several feet away in under 60 seconds. Their autonomous project uses Mecanum wheels to move in […]
SCARA robots are often used in industrial settings to move components in the proper location. In order to demonstrate the concept to students, Nicholas Schwankl has come up with a simple unit that employs three servos and 3D-printed parts to dispense 4.5mm bearings. The device runs on an Arduino Mega (though an Uno or other […]
By Dominic Pajak and Sandeep Mistry Arduino is on a mission to make machine learning easy enough for anyone to use. The other week we announced the availability of TensorFlow Lite Micro in the Arduino Library Manager. With this, some cool ready-made ML examples such as speech recognition, simple machine vision and even an end-to-end […]
While software-based design tools become more accessible all the time, at some point it’s necessary to actual build your device and test it. Developed by researchers at Dartmouth College, Proxino takes a different approach and enables you to virtually create a circuit, then test parts of it as needed with electronic components using physical proxies. […]
Servos aren’t particularly hard to control with Arduinos, and in fact there’s a library available just for that purpose. Actually making the connection between the board and servo and managing one’s power usage will require a bit more finesse. In the video below, Jeremy S. Cook explains how you can create an adapter that goes […]
Smartphones have become a part of our day-to-day lives, but for those with visual impairments, accessing one can be a challenge. This can be especially difficult if one is using a cane that must be put aside in order to interact with a phone. The GesturePod offers another interface alternative that actually attaches to the […]
Taking photos or recording videos by hand is great, but in many situations you’d prefer to have your camera mounted on a movable or even programmable platform. Steve — now funding on Kickstarter — aims to fill that role as a remote-controlled vehicle that can maneuver your camera into places where you couldn’t reach before, all while […]
Ads, notifications, and other messages surround us today, and if you were overwhelmed before, researchers at Ochanomizu University in Tokyo, Japan have figured out how to print text and images in your cup of coffee! This system, dubbed “BubBowl,” uses electrolysis to dynamically generate a dot matrix pattern of 10 x 10 pixels on the […]
Imagine if your watch wasn’t mounted on your wrist, but was instead integrated into a sort of temporary tattoo on the back of your hand? Such an idea is now one step closer to reality, thanks to new research into alternating-current electroluminescent (ACEL) display technology. While normally such displays require well over 100VAC to produce […]
