If you grew up in the ’90s and would love to play some of your favorite hit songs through something a bit more nostalgic than your smartphone, perhaps you can do what “digital alchemist” Fuzzy Wobble has done and transform an old-school payphone into a fully-functional boombox. Fuzzy Wobble was able to get his hands on an inexpensive payphone and hacked […]
Arduino user Geotechbd wrote us from Bangladesh to share his experience: Our company here in Bangladesh owns a quite old concrete batch plant, which had full manual control requiring an operator to control 14+ switched and observe 3 mechanical scales (dial gauges). I was successful to upgrade this plant to an automated unit requiring minimal […]
At the beginning of July Arduino was in London to participate to Hack The Hackathon event. We had a great time and a lot of enthusiasm about Arduino: at least 60 hands went in the air when Russ Klein, from HTH, asked on Friday night who had never seen Arduino. And by the end […]
The ethernet shield opens up lot of possibilities for Arduino. One of which has been explored by Sudar. He has found a way to make YQL calls and even parse the JSON response using Arduino and Ethernet shield. So what is YQL? YQL stands for Yahoo Query Language. It is an expressive SQL-like language that […]
Gli hackers credono di poter apprendere lezioni essenziali sui sistemi (sul mondo) smontando le cose, vedendo come funzionano, ed utilizzare questa conoscenza per creare cose nuove e più interessanti. Steven Levy Domenica 17 Giugno alle Officine Arduino una quarantina di persone hanno dimostrato la veridicita’ dell’affermazione di S. Levy. Dall’anno scorso Arduino organizza in Italia […]
Using an Arduino board with a data logging shield that holds an SD card for storage, an accelerometer on the front fork and some method of recording wheel speed, it’s possible to collect data about your bike ride. Then, when at home, a Python script captures the data dump and graphs it. Wdm006 also […]
Not using an Arduino, yet a very useful must-have on every maker’s table. Of course not as awesome as a real safety glass, but then, it is a nice start. Materials required: An empty, washed 2 liter soda bottle, an elastic band, a pair of scissors, a permanent marker. All you have to do is […]
office door hack from Valentin Heun on Vimeo. MIT Researcher Valentin Heun created the RFID door opener as he was annoyed that he needed both his MIT ID card and a key to gain access to the MIT Media Lab. With this system his RFID-embedded ID card is read by an RFID evaluation shield connected […]
If you envision an open future, sustainable development through community contribution seems to be the way out. With open platforms both across hardware and software freely interacting with each other, car makers are finding a viable way to improvise the already developing intelligence of the cars. Ford (and other automakers) envision future cars with high […]
Il prossimo week-end a Torino si terrà un workshop gratuito di Arduino (un kit opzionale potrà essere comprato per partecipare qualora non disponeste dei materiali elencati) sul circuit bending e la generazione di suoni con la scheda. Un workshop di tre giorni per smontare riciclare e far suonare vecchi strumenti elettronici, creare una digital toys […]
