This enlightening article (talk) by Cory Doctorow appeared on BoingBoing last August. This is not (only) a must-read in terms of imaging our near future, but an interesting way to weight the importance of the moral meaning Open Source Hardware has in real terms. Happy reading (or listening) Full transcription on [BoingBoing]
Anche se un po’ sotto data, se domani siete dalle parti dell’ “Erasmo da Rotterdam” di Bollate (MI) potreste partecipare ad un workshop gratuito sulla “Stampa 3D, la Modellazione Solida e il Rapid Prototyping” organizzato dalla rivista ElettronicaIn, aperto ad insegnanti / studenti / curiosi. Il workshop riguarda il rapido sviluppo che ha coinvolto la stampa tridimensionale […]
Hamburg Maker Meeting 2012, which took place last week and involved about 200 visitors and more than 20 exhibitors, has been a fantastic opportunity to meet and share experience regarding several topics, such as 3D printing, hacking, retro gaming and so on.

Come ogni anno, il 27 Ottobre 2012 si terrà in oltre 100 sedi in Italia il Linux Day, manifestazione nazionale di promozione al software libero open-source. Come non promuovere i fratelli maggiori? Presso alcuni eventi si terranno talk e presentazioni su Arduino e il mondo dell’open-hardware: vi invitiamo a segnalarceli nei commenti a questo post, […]
A thermal imaging camera is used for the purpose of energy auditing for homes and offices. Typically these require equipments such as FLIR B60 which are worth $5000 to $8000. This article by David Schneider however talks about a cheap DIY camera. Inspired by the award winning design using Arduino by two two 18-year-old students, […]
On his blog, Stephen Wolfram, worldwide known as the creator of Mathematica (a widespread computational software) and Wolfram Alpha (a knowledge engine), describes his experience at last NY Maker Faire, where he was supposed to give a public talk. One of his sons, Christopher (13 years old) suggested him a very cool way to improve […]
The new Arduino 1.5 software brings a number of improvements, some in support of the new Arduino Due board and others to make it easier to install libraries and to simplify the boards menu. While these new features should work well, we expect to get lots of feedback and to iterate on them in future […]
Today we release the latest addition to the Arduino family: the Arduino Due
Ruffletron is a prototype of a wearable musical interface and an experiment in performative interaction. The project has been developed by a textile designer, Lara Grant, in collaboration with the sound engineer Cullen Miller. For prototyping purpose, Lara used a LilyPad Arduino, Maxuino, Osculator and Ableton Live. Project details here.
Have you ever wanted a smart home that can automatically adjusts the blinds for you? If so, this project is for you. In this instructable, the author describes his approach to “smart blinds”, by using an Arduino board, an ethernet shield, a motor shield and a couple of sensors. By means of a simple web-based […]
