Inspired by the excellent coverage of Octoprint and Octolapse, the maker Jeremy S Cook has recently assembled a 3D-printable mount for a Raspi camera, giving him another aiming axis for observing 3D prints. After installing Octoprint and setting it up with my 3D-printer, I needed a way to mount everything on a wire rack that I got from Amazon. Also, I wanted a way…
Cultural probes aim to elicit unique responses by asking people to respond to a question, many times in the form of a photograph. The most basic type in this series of cameras is known as the TaskCam, which features a 3D-printed frame and an Arduino Uno at its core. A shield with several snap-off sections provides user interface,…

If you have the weekend off and if you own a Raspberry Pi 3 or Zero W sbc, this project is prefect for you! The Raspberry Pi wireless access point is built on top of Linux, using tried-and-tested tools from the more hardcore end of the software spectrum, and it allow you to get all…
At Build 2017, Microsoft introduced Azure IoT Edge, which lets edge devices run AI, Azure services, and custom logic to not just generate insights, but act on them both locally and autonomously. Microsoft has since deployed various Azure services to the edge, and now it’s gearing up to push more. But first Microsoft is open-sourcing…
3Dsimo after the first product 3Dsimo Mini pen – a “palm-sized workshop” which allows you to 3D draw, burn, cut foam and solder – has recently launched the new 3Dsimo kit, the first ever assembly kit of a multi-material 3D pen that you can modify to your requirements. As well as being able to modify the…
Created by Hackster.io member Chrono, the aptly named PiGI takes the form of an open-source, plug and play modification for the Raspberry Pi Zero mini PC, which transforms it into a cheap and hackable Internet of Things geiger counter. “The PiGI is designed & built as a simple open-source plug and play module for the…
OctoRemote is an Arduino compatible keyboard to control OctoPrint enabled 3D printers or to be used as customizable input device. OctoRemote, which is currently in the crowdfunding stage on Kickstarter, is a configurable 19-key remote. It uses the same ATmega32U4 that’s used in some Arduinos, so it can be reprogrammed with the Arduino IDE to…
