Arduino Bubble Blaster

“After seeing a bunch of little kids having fun with bubble guns at Disneyland I decided I had to have one. Based on the joy observed in these kids I was convinced that owning a light up bubble blaster was …

My mini servo grippers and completed robotic arm

“A little time ago I made a robotic arm, without the gripper. So last week I draw a gripper that is compatible with a mini servo, I made two versions because I had to chose between two kinds of gears …

How to Make a Bionic Beetle Robot

“I was trying to design a Bo-robot based on miniQ platform. Thanks to the 3D printing technology, I can print a bionic case of high-quality and lightness in a low cost.”

SAB3T - PID Loop Educational Tool

“SAB3T is short for Servo Actuated Ball Bearing Balancing Touchscreen. A 7” resistive touchscreen is used to sense the position of a steel ball bearing. The touchscreen is mounted to a universal joint allowing it to tilt in 2 axes …

The Hexachord, an Arduino-Controlled Musical Instrument

“Last year, with the deadline of the Bay Area Maker Faire, I created a new instrument called the Hexachord. It was a whole lot of fun, a great hit, and I’ve had the chance to do a number of …
