Are connected objects the next big thing? Will they really become part of our life? Watch Massimo Banzi keynote at Maker Faire Rome – The European Edition to learn more about the Arduino approach to this topic:
Last year Massimo Banzi wrote a long post on this blog to explain the genealogy of Arduino. He described how an open-hardware project, designed to lower the barriers to prototyping interactive projects, was able to find its way into economical sustainability and still keep innovating. He clearly explained what an original Arduino is, and why […]
On saturday 15th of November we are going to be in London for the Elefant&Castle Mini Maker Faire at the London College of Communication. We’ll have a booth with some projects made with Arduino boards and demos to test our new Arduino Zero. You can visit our booth located in The Street area of the First Floor (check […]
The goal of this project was to create a small device, which detects movement in protected areas (e.g. tables) and allows you to speak usual phrases in your voice to the cat to control its behaviour when you are away. It’s called Cat Protector and prototyped on Arduino Uno by Lucky Resistor, a creative guy who enjoys software […]
Servos are composed of an electric motor mechanically linked to a potentiometer and they are able to translate the width of the pulse into a position. When you command the servo to rotate, the motor is powered until the potentiometer reaches the value corresponding to the commanded position. Today we’d like to share with you a tutorial with […]
We are really happy to share with you that at the beginning of the week Paola Antonelli (Senior Curator Department of Architecture and Design) and Michelle Millar Fisher, (Curatorial Assistant, Department of Architecture and Design) published on the Moma blog a post announcing the acquisition of Arduino and other DIY electronic devices in the collection of […]
Electronic Traces is an interactive project designed to allow ballet dancers to recreate their movements in digital pictures using a customizable mobile application. It was prototyped by product-designer Lesia Trubat mixing technological, artisanal skills and using Arduino Lilypad, force sensitive resistors and accelerometer:
We’ve been amazed by the great projects coming up the week before Halloween on Twitter and Gplus community and still being submitted to our blog. Leah Libresco published an Instructables about a pair of interactive gauntlets made with Arduino Lilypad:
Arduino boards are able to control small motors very easily and it’s just as easy when you have to deal with controlling large motors. In the following video tutorial by NYC CNC you’ll see two examples. In the first you’ll learn how to get up and running, to start, stop, control direction and speed of […]
Eva Taylor works at EKT Workshop and built an animatronic rod puppet Alien as a masterwork research project for the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) in Sydney Australia. It was inspired by the “bambi burster” built for the film Alien 3, although her creature is somewhat different. The animatronics are controlled via a Playstation […]
