[dcuartielles] re-posted a nice pecha kucha style resumé of the open hardware experience from [Philip Torrone] and [Limor] at Foo Camp (MIT) at the Ignite hour. Thanks David for the link. At O’Reilly’s foo camp east 2010 at Microsoft’s NERD center (MIT campus) we presented “Million dollar baby – Businesses designing and selling open source […]
If you happen to be a railway geek, you may know this Intellibox: Between the control computer and the railway is Uhlenbrock’s Intellibox (German site). Its RS232 interface supports Märklin’s P50 protocol, plus extensions called P50X. The extensions include an event system for acquiring information about changes in the railway state. The most important use […]
Arduino Forum user [mdmetzle] shared a nice tv-out library for Arduino: I wrote a small video output library called TVout. It is completely interrupt driven to make writing things that need tvout easier. It runs on a resolution of 128×96 with some basic text printing and line and dot drawing for now. video and spec […]
We previously covered the Motoruino project from Lisbon-based maker Guilherme Martins; some days ago I’ve seen another nice kit from Canadian Robotshop, called Roboduino. The dawn of the age of robot… Video of both platform in action after the break. UPDATE: [Julien] submitted a mistake I did in the embedding of images. The first image […]
Some time ago we posted an odd video about an arduino-based synth. [DeFex] (arduino forum user) revealed a nice PCB design to get it shielded: The arduino is a 4 oscillator phase accumulator, and does a few other things. each oscillator has a separate DAC which are mixed in the analog realm (controlling an 8 […]
This is an impressive use of Arduino, two servos, a webcam and Processing to tilt a ball platform. Via [MAKE]
Amazing project from [Adam Franchino], via [MAKE] I went to the RobotFest / Mid-Atlantic Mini Maker Faire yesterday. I saw this awesome project and thought you might like to put it on the blog. Basically it’s an ant farm with optointerrupts. When the ants walk through the lightpath, they modify the audio output. The maker’s […]
[Jonathan Oxer] from Practical Arduino discovered a shield made on his Virtual USB Keyboard project: I don’t know anything much about it other than what’s shown on that page, but from what I can deduce it’s the circuit from the Virtual USB Keyboard project converted into a nice PCB with a bunch of buttons included […]
[Michael Una] posted nice review on the ongoing Floppy Audio Effects Project on Create Digital Music: This year, you can add 3.5? floppy drives and disks to your shopping list, courtesy of Daniel McAnulty’s project Floppy Audio Effects. Dan figured out a couple of neat tricks to create delay/reverb effects by writing audio to the […]
What would be the most apt way to notify someone when they have a new Tweet? Why through the chirps of a cuckoo clock of course. Heidelberg-based designer Haroon Baig has modified a traditional cuckoo clock adding an Arduino board, custom software and a touchscreen display to create the Twitwee clock. (cool) Video after the […]
