“Inspired by Disney’s Shaman Animatronic, as well as 3D printed designs by WillettFX and TheDutchEdition, I recently decided to build a 3D printed animatronic mouth design. Although the mechanics of the design are very simplified compared to the other …
“This is a space pointer! It lets you select a planet, and time of day, and the arrow will spin around to point to its position in the sky. This is a very simple project, and can be completed in …
“A tiny (really tiny!) msp430-native microcontroller-like processor system written in platform independent VHDL There is a pretty gap in the landscape of open-source soft-core processors between the tiny 8-bit processors and the chunky 32-bit ones. So I decided to fill …
“I recently got introduced to the concept of binary watches and started doing some research to see if I could build one for myself. However, I was unable to find an existing design that was both functional and stylish at …
“For this project, we (Alex Fiel & Anna Lynton) took an everyday measuring tool and turned it into a clock! The original plan was to motorized an existing tape measure. In making that, we decided it’d be easier to create …
“Unlike the Arduino Uno and Arduino Nano, the Seeeduino XIAO onboard USB is not supported by the common USB-to-serial chip. These chips are usually FT232, CP2102, CH340, and etc. The main chip ATSAMD21 of Seeeduino XIAO is natively supporting …
“A WiFi repeater built around Raspberry Pi under $10. Introduction Truly WiFi Extender is a WiFi repeater based on Raspberry Pi Zero W. It makes a nice alternative to a commercial WiFi repeater combining low-cost (under 10 USD) and highly …
“Recently, my wife’s many-years-old Keurig stopped working. Like any engineer/hacker/maker, my first instinct was to poke around, clean out certain parts, etc. to see if I could fix it, and after some time I did get coffee …
“I built a gun that shoots out a narrow beam of ultrasonic audio. The sound can only be heard by people inside the narrow beam. For this project I built a gun that shoots out a narrow beam of ultrasonic …
“Use the latest ATtiny processors in the Arduino Environment. These have the memory capacity of ATmega chips in smaller and cheaper packages. You may be familiar with the ATtiny series of microprocessors from Microchip such as the ATtiny85 or ATtiny2313 …
