In the worlds of programming and robotics, turtles are entities — either virtual or physical robots— that follow commands to move around a 2D plane. Those are usually very simple commands, such as “move forward 10 units” or “rotate 90 degrees clockwise,” and they help people learn some programming fundamentals (like Logo in the ’80s!)

Mehdi Sadaghdar, better known as ElectroBOOM, created a name for himself with shocking content on YouTube full of explosive antics. But once you get past the meme-worthy shenanigans, he is a genuinely smart guy that provides useful and accessible lessons on many electrical engineering principles. If you like your learning with a dash of over-the-top […] The post Learn how to make a 2D capacitive touch sensor with ElectroBOOM appeared first on Arduino Blog.| Arduino Blog
In the distant past of about two decades ago, one would need to use a KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switch to control multiple computers with the same mouse and keyboard — and even then, it would take a button press to move from one to the other. Today, Apple’s Universal Control feature lets users seamlessly […]| Arduino Blog
If you need to move fluid from one vessel to another, you’re probably going to want a pump of some kind. Typical inexpensive pumps are usually only on or off, so you can’t easily control the flow rate. Those that do have some kind of analog adjustment are usually imprecise, which is a problem in […]| Arduino Blog
The whole point of a robot is that it can operate without direct control input from an operator. Except there are many exceptions and it isn’t uncommon for roboticists and operators to require direct control. The Tinkering Techie needed to add that capability to his rover robot and built his own Wi-Fi controller that also […]| Arduino Blog
It is a story as old as time (or at least the 1960s): kid gets an RC car for Christmas and excitedly takes it for spin, but crashes it into a wall within five minutes and tears ensue. The automotive industry has cut down on accidents by implementing automatic emergency braking safety features, so why […]| Arduino Blog

A CanSat is a small sensor payload, about the size of a soda can, designed to be launched on a model rocket to relatively low altitudes of around 1km. But while that isn’t anywhere close to leaving the atmosphere, it is very high and CanSats need a way to get back to the ground safely. […]| Arduino Blog
Fashion isn’t just about following current clothing and accessory trends. It is also a form of art and creative expression. And like every other form of art, fashion has a place for technology — both in the fabrication of garments and in the garments themselves. Inspired by pioneers like Anouk Wipprecht and Behnaz Farahi, RaspiMari […]| Arduino Blog
Quand un simple radar LED devient une odyssée électronique… Au départ, c'était simple. Trop simple, même. L'idée : faire tourner un anneau de LEDs comme| Framboise 314, le Raspberry Pi à la sauce française....
Sous vide (which means “under vacuum” in French) is a cooking technique in which food is sealed in a plastic bag (or another container) and immersed in warm water for a long period of time. It is great for meat, like steak, because it ensures the food is an even temperature throughout. For a steak, […]| Arduino Blog
Japanese scientists have created what may be the world’s smallest video game. Using a regular controller, players can control a tiny digital ship, firing nanoscale bullets to push around a physical polystyrene ball just a few microns wide.| New Atlas
If your car was made in the last decade, its dash probably has several displays, gauges, and indicator lights. But how many of those do you actually look at on a regular basis? Likely only one or two, like the speedometer and gas gauge. Knowing that, John Sutley embraced minimalism to use a Game Boy […]| Arduino Blog
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our nano drone, Trace. Designed to meet the pressing needs of national security, law enforcement, and critical infrastructure management, Trace provides field operators with a trusted and affordable American-made nano UAV. The pocket-sized drone offers the capabilities of much larger drones in a nano form factor, enabling advances… The post Announcing Trace appeared first on Vantage Robotics.| Vantage Robotics
Autonomous vehicles, and self-driving cars in particular, are probably one of the most enticing technologies of the 21st century. But despite a great deal of R&D and even more speculation, we have yet to see a self-driving car that can actually operate on real public roads without any human oversight at all. If, however, we […]| Arduino Blog
Each component you add to your Arduino project increases its complexity and the opportunity for mistakes. But most projects require some “auxiliary” hardware — components that you use to interact with the Arduino or to help it do the job you’re asking of it. Buttons and displays are great examples. But as Doctor Volt demonstrates […]| Arduino Blog
Until the 21st century, cathode-ray tube (CRT) TVs were pretty much the only option. As such, media was made to suit them. Retro video game consoles in particular look best on CRT TVs. But those old TVs are getting hard to find and desirable models are now quite expensive. So, bitluni built his own “fake CRT […]| Arduino Blog

Good documentation is extremely useful when conceiving, building, or sharing electronic circuit designs, but traditional schematics and technical drawings are difficult for non-professionals to interpret and create. Makers can benefit from intuitive illustrations that look good enough to share. Circuit Canvas, developed by Oyvind Nydal Dahl, makes it easy to quickly create beautiful and useful […]| Arduino Blog
