[Rave Rover’s Chris Williamson] made a portable DIY dancefloor, sharing instructions and schematics. Like with many projects similar to this, an Arduino board controls pretty much everything. The floor is dominated by powerful LED lights, which respond to a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). A small computer is also inside (complete with Wi-fi), along with a car […]
TriggerTrap, is a very interesting product developed by Ziah Fogel & Haje Jan Kamps. Arduino-based & open-source, is now on preorder. What does it do? (Watch Video) (With TriggerTrap) your camera will be easily controlled in a number of ways either by sound, by breaking a laser beam, time or any other method you can […]
Even if some of you (thanks for the wonderful picture, Bill) already realized it, we are officially announcing a big Christmas surprise for all Arduino users in North America: Radioshack sells Arduino in most of its 6000+ stores all around US! This means that you’re going to find Arduino UNO, Arduino MEGA 2560 and Arduino ADK, […]
[Robotgrrl] shared a super-userful way to import Arduino Data to Mac applications, with tutorials and examples. We created Matatino, a framework that lets you communicate between your Mac applications and your Arduino, You can follow our tutorials to get started with adding Matatino to your project. To see Matatino in action, check out Meters for Arduino. We […]
Cool drawing robot from So Kanno and Takahiro Yamaguchi, from “UTOPIA no OSHIRASE” exhibition in Tokyo. Senseless Drawing Bot is a 4-wheeled graffiti machine, with a pendulum arm, arduino and spray cans to create random strokes as it moves up and down the gallery space. via [creativeApplications]
New fellows in the TinkerKit! family: [T000060] and [T000062] are two versions of the same gyroscope module (1x / 4x sensitivity) based on the LPR5150AL from ST Microelectronics. We are sharing example codes and a visual UI in Processing (hosted on Scuola)
[Mykle Hansen] explains how to make a Speed Vest displaiyng the speed of the bicycle, as seen on Make: 19. This is a cool intro-project for wearable electronics. Bicyclists receive a lot of honk-based grief from car drivers who perceive them as slow and in the way, and when drivers misjudge a bicycle’s speed, it can cause […]
Interesting Workshop at ISEA 2011 in Istanbul led by Anna Dumitriu and Tom Keene with Alex May. The aim of the workshop is building and calibrating iPhone compatible/connectable Galvanic Skin Response Sensors (GSR) to record subtle changes in emotion. This very personal sensor data will then be shared online. Participants will also collaborate to develop […]
What better option than Android arduino, could be used when we think of hacking phones and and interfacing them with the sensors? As a member of illutron, Mads Høbye – MEDEA PhD student in interaction design – was asked by SonyEricsson to challenge the more conventional usage of mobile technology, by exploring alternative usage […]
