Alan-1 has announced that they have begun shipping their third title, the enhanced version of DSM Arcade’s Perfect Pour, known as Soda Slam! Let’s take a look at what this is as units may start showing up soon at an FEC near you this summer.
Arduino Team — May 23rd, 2025 At some point in your life, you’ve probably had a doctor or dentist ask you if you clench your jaw or grind your teeth — particularly at night. That is called bruxism and it can have serious effects, such as tooth damage, jaw pain, headaches, and more. But because it often happens when you’re asleep and unconscious, it can be very difficult to prevent. To help sufferers alleviate those symptoms,...
Display Week was May 11–16, and the expo floor was filled with the technology of tomorrow and the e-waste of next week. I expected a lot of monitors and was surprised to learn how many things qualify as a screen. There are big screens, tiny screens, screens so small you need a microscope, and screens bigger than some murals. There were thin ones, bendy ones, and undulating ones. So there were a lot. After a while,...
Just over a month back, we ran a story on a brand new Hot Wheels arcade racer by Adrenaline Amusements that suddenly had a manual listed on their website folder link. Besides some reports of Dave & Busters locations receiving cabinets and them not being up and running yet (apparently the software wasn’t delivered with them), things then went silent. Fast forward to now and this game is finally available to play, with some videos popping up to show...
If you were to pick a “mascot” for the arcade industry, the chances are that Namco’s PAC-MAN would win the polls of public opinion. Yes, there had been some basic characters that popped up in some games here and there prior to the hungry yellow guy coming along, but none had quite supercharged the scene like PAC-MAN would do. Today is the 45th anniversary of Toru Iwatani’s creation, so with that, let’s reminisce down memory lane. Note that due to...
Arduino Team — May 21st, 2025 We’re excited to introduce two tiny additions to the Arduino ecosystem that will make a big difference: the Nano Connector Carrier and seven new Modulino® nodes, now available individually in the Arduino Store! These products are designed to make your prototyping experience faster, easier, and more fun – whether you’re building interactive installations, automating tasks, or learning new skills.
Join Dale Dougherty and Make: Robotic Arms author Matt Eaton for a Fireside Chat exploring how to design, build, and control robotic arms. Dale and Matt will discuss beginner-friendly approaches to Arduino-powered robotic arms, using simple, affordable parts. Plus, learn all about how to achieve complex movement by using servo motors and a mathematical concept called kinematics, to enable your robots to move, lift, and draw with more precision than humans! This session is a great starting point...
The Rocky Mountain RepRap Festival had an amazing third annual event on May 17-18 2025 in its usual venue, the Pedersen Toyota Center at the Ranch Events complex in Loveland, Colorado. The two-day event celebrating all things 3D printing had an estimated 3,600 attendees the first day and 1,700 the second, plus about 500 people exhibiting in a bit under 300 booths. This was the biggest year so far, with all of that coming to about...

Arduino Team — May 19th, 2025 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. Most use parachutes, but John of the I Build Stuff YouTube channel gave...
