Make an EEG Beanie That Reads Your Mind
Ever wanted to visualize your brain activity? Electroencephalography (EEG) uses electrodes placed against the scalp to detect the tiny electrical changes that occur when neurons fire. By amplifying these signals through a computer, you can observe brain activity in real-time.

ATtiny24 Programming Adapter
It's really easy to program AVR microcontroller chips — but some of them don't fit the standard Atmel programmer. You need an adapter to connect the Atmel ISPMKII programmer to an ATtiny24 microcontroller Dual Inline Package (DIP) chip — and you can easily make this adapter with just a few components. Here's how.

Sculpt Snow and Ice With This Hot Wire Cutter
Have you ever wanted to sculpt something out of ice? Here's an easy way to do it with a "hot wire ice cutter"

Build Your Own Pebble: The DIY Smartwatch
Build a low power watch from off-the-shelf components and breakout boards

Smart Rat Trap
After years of failed attempts with store-bought traps, we realized we had to make a trap as clever as the rats. In our Smart Rat Trap, the Arduino reads a proximity sensor, then powers electromagnets to drop a cage on even the cagiest of uninvited furry guests. Build it!

In this project, I am going to give you a basic introduction to 3D printing pens and how to use them

Think back to your first wearable tech experience: maybe it was the communicator badges in Star Trek, the palm flower crystals in Logan’s Run or the man-turned-machine in Terminator. We want science fiction to be real because we want to feel special, aware, and powerful. That’s why wearable tech is our now, and the Flora microcontroller is our BFF.

Wearable Temperature Sensors For Working in Extreme Cold
[youtube:http://youtu.be/N9gW5cmOb78] When working in extreme temperatures it is important to monitor your body temperature.

Toy Inventor’s Notebook: Colorful Comic Kaleidoscope
Ordinary kaleidoscopes must be pointed toward a light source to work. This one has built-in illumination, so you can hold it right up against a printed page.

Dame Juliana Berners and the Fishing Lure
This 15th-century English nun wrote the book on the technology of recreational fishing.

Sound-Activated Outlet
I decided to make programmable version of The Clapper using an Arduino microcontroller.
