[ad_1] Arduino has recently introduced a new Image Widget for its Arduino Cloud platform, a feature that promises to enhance the capabilities of IoT dashboards significantly. This addition allows users to integrate real-time imagery into their data-driven workflows, opening up a myriad of possibilities for various applications. Whether it’s for smart homes, enterprise solutions, or […]

[ad_1] Remember Duracell’s PowerCheck? The idea was that a strip built into the battery would show if the battery was good or not. Sure, you could always get a meter or a dedicated battery tester — but PowerCheck put the tester right in the battery. [Technology Connections] has an interesting video on how these worked […]

[ad_1] Tool changing 3D printers are hot. The idea is that instead of switching filament, you swap out hot ends or other tools. That isn’t a new idea. However, most tool changers are expensive. [Engineers Grow] has one that is simple and inexpensive, relying on the printer’s own motors and some clever mechanics. The first […]

[ad_1] Most of us have made paper airplanes at one time or another, but rather than stopping at folded paper, [VirgileC] graduated to 3D printing them out of PLA. Then the obvious question is: can you cast one in cement? The answer is yes, you can, but note that the question was not: can a […]

[ad_1] If you’re looking for an intriguing aerial project, [DilshoD] has you covered with his unique twist on modular airships. The project, which you can explore in detail here, revolves around a modular airship composed of individual spherical bodies filled with helium or hydrogen—or even a vacuum—arranged in a 3x3x6 grid. The result? A potentially […]

[ad_1] Repurposing an old smartphone into a mini PC is an intelligent and eco-friendly way to extend its life and reduce electronic waste. By using the phone’s existing features, such as its high-resolution display, cameras, speakers, and wireless capabilities, you can create a powerful and compact computing device. This process offers tech enthusiasts a cost-effective […]

[ad_1] Flip digit clocks are a prized piece of consumer electrical ephemera, providing as they do a digital display without significant electronics. Making your own flip digit display involves some drudgery in the production of all those flip cards, but how would it seem if the complexity was reduced? Go from base 10 to base […]

[ad_1] If you are interested in building your very own AI voice agent using the new OpenAI Real-Time API. You might be interested in a new guide by Bart Slodyczka which takes you through the essential stages of developing an AI voice agent, from integrating with Twilio to deploying your application on Replit. Building an […]

[ad_1] I recently wrote about using Klipper to drive my 3D printers, and one natural question is: Why use Klipper instead of Marlin? To some degree that’s like asking why write in one programming language instead of another. However, Klipper does offer some opportunities to extend the environment more easily. Klipper runs on a Linux […]

[ad_1] If you are thinking of building your very own desktop robot arm and were intrigued by the project published yesterday which took you through the process of creating a mini robotic arm using Arduino. This new project blends creativity with technical expertise, offering an immersive experience that will deepen your understanding of robotics while […]
