The goal of this project is to create a complex communication system between three microcontrollers (MKR1000, Mega 2560 and Raspberry Pi B) to simply control a robotic car via SSH on a computer. The idea is to have a computer connected to a Raspberry Pi via ssh, which in turn is connected as a client…
Being a maker, I thought about this and decided that I will build a wearable device, a system which can help both patients with Alzheimer and their caretakers. This system should be able to carry out at least the following tasks: Reminding the patient of carrying out tasks, he/she has to do daily (such as…
Let’s discover the programming environment that facilitates interaction between software and electronic devices. Electronics and IT have many things in common, we just need to know that the latter would not exist without the former. So yet, we tend to consider IT as a world apart and for this reason, we often do not…
If you have a HERO4 or HERO5 at home, thanks to their WiFi capabilities, with the proper programming you can use an Arduino sbc like the MKR1000 for control. The Maker Randy Sarafan was able to set up a MKR1000 to communicate with a HERO4 as well as a HERO5 Session, including sending a Wake-on-LAN signal to power…
The Arduino Engineering Kit enables college students and educators to incorporate core engineering concepts into their Arduino projects, thanks to industry-standard tools for algorithm development, system modeling, simulation and robotics with the support of MATLAB and Simulink programming. These software packages are the base of industry-standard tools for algorithm development, system modeling, and simulation, all…
Maker Adi Singh recently wrote an Instructable to build an expanding Death Star Lamp starting from a popoular Ikea lamp. This amazing creation is also controlled with your voice. This is possible thanks to an Arduino MKR1000 SBC embedded in the lamp which takes voice commands via Alexa. A stepper motor is tasked with opening…
Arduino has today launched a global contest that challenges users of its open-source electronics platform to create innovative products that help advance the development of Industry 4.0 automation and robotics applications. The contest is being run in partnership with electronics and automation distributor Distrelec, and is hosted at the Arduino Project Hub. Contestants are required to…
Created by maker Balázs Simon, the WalaBeer tank is a homemade Alexa-connected vehicle that treks around your apartment with the express goal of delivering you a beer. There are things that deep inside every man wants to have. Combining beer and tanks is one of these things! This project will be about this thing, a…
The new Arduino Create Chrome App enables students and other users to write code, access tutorials, configure boards, and share projects. Designed to provide a continuous workflow from inspiration to implementation, Makers can easily manage every aspect of their project right from a single dashboard. All you need to use it is an Arduino account,…
Important announcement from Massimo Banzi! Massimo Banzi during celebration of Arduino Day in Berkeley announced three important news to the community. Starting today the new MKR1000 is in our stores and available for purchase. Arduino has also opened two web platforms, one focused on project sharing and the other on a new approach to IoT….
