What can you do with Arduino and a new 3D printer?
RAS2025-05-30T13:59:10+00:00When 3D printing matured from an industrial edge case to a mainstream commercial technology in the 2010s, it captured the imaginations of everyone from schoolteachers to fashion designers. But if there’s one group that really, really got excited about 3D printing, it was makers. When 3D printers became commercially available, they knew that everything was about to change. Indeed, 3D printing offers everyone the invaluable ability to create custom components tailored to specific needs. This in turn brings a...
Recreating a bizarre century-old electronic instrument
RAS2025-05-27T19:46:35+00:00Arduino Team — May 27th, 2025 There are a handful of instruments that are staples of modern music, like guitars and pianos. And then there are hundreds of other instruments that were invented throughout history and then fell into obscurity without much notice. The Luminaphone, invented by Harry Grindell Matthews and unveiled in 1925, is a particularly bizarre example. Few people have ever heard the Luminaphone and so Nick Bild recreated the unique instrument using...

YouTuber builds robot to make boyfriend take out the trash
RAS2025-05-26T12:07:20+00:00Arduino Team — May 26th, 2025 Is there anything more irritating than living with a partner who procrastinates on their share of the chores? Even if it isn’t malicious, it sure is annoying. Taking out the trash is YouTuber CircuitCindy’s boyfriend’s responsibility, but he often fails to do the task in a timely manner. That forced Cindy to implement a sinister solution: a robotic trashcan that follows her boyfriend and makes pointed comments until...
This DIY bruxism detector prevents jaw clenching during sleep
RAS2025-05-23T20:22:33+00:00Arduino 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,...

The Arduino Nano Connector Carrier...This CanSat doubles as a drone to slow descents
RAS2025-05-19T17:58:44+00:00Arduino 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...
CamRo is a robot that captures awesome product videos at the touch of a button
RAS2025-05-19T11:20:28+00:00Arduino Team — May 19th, 2025 Presentation is always important — even in the maker community. Nice photos and videos get people in the door and technical achievements keep them around. But recording nice videos can be difficult, which is why Cameron Coward developed this robot, called CamRo, to do the work for him. CamRo is a portmanteau of “camera” and “robot,” which describes this machine’s purpose. It exists to record videos of relatively small...
