ArClock - a Smart Display Wrapped in Real Wood

“ArClock is my updating of the “LED clock inside a block of wood” idea. It’s a pretty simple build and the result is eye-catching but tasteful (depending on how it’s configured!). It’s built around a WiFi-enabled microcontroller …

Arduino Air Quality Monitor

“Arduino MKR RGB displays PurpleAir air quality data for a sensor near you. The open, local, real-time air quality data from PurpleAir has been super valuable during the pollution we’ve experienced over the past few months. I was also …

Arduino Mechanical Keypad

“I needed a pin pad for another project, so I decided to make a keypad with parts I had at home. Supplies: 1u Keycaps: 1 to 9 DELETE 2u Keycaps: 0 ENTER 12 key switches (I used Cherry yellows but …

Arduino RTC Bird Feeder v2.0 for Poultry Conditioning

“Feed the poultry in quotidian routine to condition them - sensory preconditioning - to improve egg production and hatching process. I was keeping quails, chickens, and ducks in my garden before I moved, but it was struggling to manage to feed them …

Arduino Star Tracker

“Track stars using Arduino, GPS, a laser pointer, and some motors! Story This project follows the system design for making a laser-pointer point to a star with a given date, time, GPS location, and the star’s celestial coordinates. Background …

Automatic SMD Reflow Oven From a Cheap Toaster Oven

“Hobbyist PCB making has become much more accessible. Circuit boards that contain only through-hole components are easy to solder but the size of the board is ultimately limited by the component’s size. As such, utilizing surface mount components enable …

Baremetal programming on the TinyAVR 0 micro-controllers

“Are you an 8-bit or a 32-bit programmer? At OMZLO, we have been mainly focussing our development efforts on newer 32-bit Arm-Cortex chips (STM32 and SAMD), which typically offer more RAM, more speed, more peripherals, at a similar or lower …

Building a Self-Driving Boat (ArduPilot Rover)

“You know what’s cool? Unmanned self-driving vehicles. They are so cool in fact that we (my uni colleagues and me) started to build one ourselves back in 2018. That is also why I set out this year to finally …

Car Speed Detector

“How to make a Car Speed Detector using Arduino and IR Sensor”

Check Out This DIY Arduino-Powered Metal Detector Robot

“Everyone loves metal detecting. But when you combine it with remote-controlled robots, the experience is taken to a whole new level. Read on to find out how to build one for yourself! Like most projects of this nature, you’ll …
