Arduino Mega + former nuclear indicator = coolest Nixie clock ever?

Arduino Mega + former nuclear indicator = coolest Nixie clock ever?

There have been countless clocks made using Arduino boards, but you’ve likely never seen anything quite like this display. It features four Nixie tubes that alternate between the time, temperature, pressure, and relative humidity, in addition to a clock-like hand as a secondary indication of atmospheric pressure. That is interesting in itself, but to top […]

Get a feel for your computing energy usage with this setup

Get a feel for your computing energy usage with this setup

Norbert Heinz, aka “HomoFaciens,” is no stranger to making versions of modern-day equipment in unusual ways, but what about the way that this equipment is actually powered? It’s not something that we normally consider if an AC adapter is nearby; you simply plug it into the wall and “free” power flows to your device. Heinz’s […]

This Arduino-controlled machine draws on textile with wax

This Arduino-controlled machine draws on textile with wax

Batik is a fabric decoration technique where wax is applied by hand to cloth that is then died, leaving behind beautiful patterns. While interesting, doing this manually is time-consuming and requires quite a bit of skill to properly execute. In a new take on this traditional technique, makers Olivia De Gouveia and Eugenia Morpurgo decided […]

Find astronomical objects in the night sky with this Arduino telescope assistant

Find astronomical objects in the night sky with this Arduino telescope assistant

No matter how good your telescope is, if you don’t know where to point it, it’s little more than a curiosity. Motorized GoTo telescopes are available at a very high price, but maker “DentDentArthurDent” has come up with an automated star-finder, showing you where your telescope needs to be aimed. The system takes the form of a […]

Hot Ninja messages other devices using WiFi SSIDs

Hot Ninja messages other devices using WiFi SSIDs

When you need to access the Internet via WiFi, it’s not too hard to find a hotspot if you’re in the right location, and the SSID usually gives you some clue as to who is providing it. What if you instead generated network names in order to communicate with people attempting to log on? That’s […]

Expanding Death Star lamp with MKR1000

Expanding Death Star lamp with MKR1000

What could be better than a lamp that expands with the pull of a control cord? How about one that looks like the Death Star and is controlled with your voice?  That’s exactly what maker Adi Singh created using a popular IKEA lamp and embedding it with an Arduino MKR1000 to take voice commands via Alexa. […]

RC truck packs Arduino control system… and an electromagnetic accelerator turret!

RC truck packs Arduino control system… and an electromagnetic accelerator turret!

While some toy vehicles perform quite well out of the box, others are just begging to be equipped with supplemental electronics. This was the case for YouTuber Tanner Tech, who after receiving a capable 4WD truck in the mail with no control system, outfitted it with a transmitter and receiver, along with an Arduino Uno. […]

Robot Van Gogh will paint your portrait

Maker Faire Rome, where everything started I participated in Maker Faire Rome back in December 2017. I came with the rest of the Arduino crew to spend two days talking to other makers in the show, check out the projects made in the field of education and to…  get a portrait painted. Now seriously, I […]

1961 rotary phone gets a 2018 cellular upgrade

While it’s hard to beat today’s mobile devices functionality-wise, if you need a phone built like a tank and designed for voice communication and voice communication only, you can’t go wrong with the Western Electric Model 500 rotary telephone. As maker “bicapitate” shows on Imgur, these models include a generous amount of space inside, enough […]
