As the preeminent tool for makers, Arduino is a versatile platform that covers almost every type of creative making. With its simple-to-use coding language and fun programming concepts, Arduino enables users to create modern electronics with ease. From beginner level projects like flashing LED lights to more advanced builds such as interactive robots, there are an endless number of possibilities when it comes to building projects with Arduino. Whether you are new or an experienced builder in search of fresh ideas, these posts will provide interesting Arduino tutorials and unique ideas that may spark your creativity and motivate you take on any type of maker project!
Guilherme used Arduino, Braun hair removal device, XBee, servo, and casters to bring us – ratb0t! One day my mother told me she had one hair-removal thing broken (Braun Silk Epil brand ), and she would bring it to me. Of course I accepted, and I confess, I never tried to fix it :) This […]
Our friends over at Willoughby and Baltic are hosting the Boston Arduino Users Group on January 15th, 2009 from 7- 9pm. If you are in the Boston area, you really should stop by and check it out. This is a great opportunity to meet other Arduino enthusiasts, solder something up, or just see what others […]
This is a really simple project that would fun for anyone getting started with an Arduino. Check out the ‘more info’ section for a link to the source code. There aren’t any schematics, but the code is well documented. More about the Imperial March on an Arduino In the Maker Shed: Make: Arduino
Roboduino is an Arduino compatible micro controller that has some extra features that make it great for anyone making robots. I really like the power buses along side the pwm and analog pins so you can easily plug in a standard servo. The Roboduino is a Freeduino (Arduino software compatible) microcontroller board designed for robotics. […]
Craving a toasted marshmallow but frustrated by lack of a proper campfire coupled with an annoying inability to rotate the marshmallow evenly? Henry has cooked up an Instructable for a lovely, single-serving Arduino automatic marshmallow roaster using a beeswax candle and a stepper motor from an old printer. Yum!

Sam’s Tagtool is a digital drawing tool well suited for live performance. Simplifying basic controls for visual art creation, the device makes use of a Boarduino to process fader/button input for a mini-ATX PC with graphics tablet. Instructions are available for building either a suitcase or mini version – bringing the straightforward interface of a […]
