You’ve probably seen a plotter of some kind made from DVD players and the like. These devices, of course, normally work with objects in the XYZ coordinate system. As cool as they are, TUENHIDIY’s build takes things to another level – or at least in another direction – with a pair of printer rollers subbed in for the Y-axis. This allows a bottle to roll in coordination with an X/Z gantry system on top, decorating it with whatever text or drawings are programmed
Side glow fiber optics – unlike their cousins that efficiently transmit light from one point to another – emit a glow along the length of each strand when light is applied. This creates a beautiful effect, which Andrei Erdei implemented nicely in his wall decoration project.
Erdei’s build consists of a series of nine square frames, inside of which 3mm fiber optic strands are connected, looping gracefully from one edge to another. Each strand is lit by an addressable WS2812B LED module, under the control of an Arduino Nano.
You can see this wall installation in action in the video below, and more info on how to build your own is available on the project write-up.
Hi guys! in this video, I will show you how to make a simple moving, dancing, avoiding obstruction robot using arduino nano.
Parts / Materials
• Arduino nano
• Ultra sonic sensor
• Micro servo 9g
• Circuit board (PCB)
• Bolts/nuts
• Soldering iron/lead wire/cutter/glue/adhesive tape.
Today I would like to propose a simple project that requires easy skills. It’s a simple weather station, that measures, internal and external temperature. It’s made out of two components: an indoor receiver, and an outdoor transmitter. The transmission is managed at 433Mhz. The components and the electrical diagram for both devices, are showed in the video. The receiver is very easy to use. to toggle between the external and internal temperature, you need to press the button for more than 3 seconds.
In this video I create a color changing nightlight based on a famous symbol from one of my son’s favorite video games. Because space was tight, I decided to use an ATtiny microcontroller instead of an Arduino. These are very inexpensive and are a great way to shrinkify your Arduino projects. ATtiny come in multiple configurations (number of pins and amount of memory). One of the most popular is the ATtiny85 which only has 8 pins and is very small.
How about a Spider who obeys the order to sit, dances when he sees a light and dodges obstacles? All of this was assembled with just one board, the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense.
After coming across Carbon Design Group’s Domino Wall Clock, which uses electronic magnetic coil motors to reveal white dots, Instructables member “Kothe” decided to create a simplified version of their own.
The clock is comprised of three custom dominoes — the first tile for hours, the second and third for minutes. Unlike its inspiration, Kothe’s device uses addressable RGB LEDs as dots that allow for a variety of colors to shine through.

In this video we will be having a closer look at the Pyboard in order to find out whether it is a good Arduino alternative. Along the way we will discover all of the features the board comes with and learn quite a bit of MicroPython programming. Let’s get started!
In this tutorial I will show you how I built an Arduino based 3D wire bending machine. This is actually a typical mechatronic system because it involves mechanical, electrical and computer engineering. So therefore I believe many engineering students or anyone who is new into mechatronics found this project interesting.
