Sebastian’s Arduino beat code could be a good starting point for those interested in the blue board’s rhythmic applications – Today i have been working on a sample-based drum machine for the Arduino. At the moment, bars and patterns have to be programmed into the code manually. However, i am hoping to expand upon this […]
From the MAKE Flickr photo pool Synoptic Labs is developing a low cost USB 2.4Ghz spectrum analyzer. For those unfamiliar, these devices are used to identify wireless interference which can cause trouble for wifi networks – Rob and I have recently been talking about doing some wireless projects. A friend loaned us a Cypress CYM6935 […]
Ladyada.net has a neat messaging device up for a limited time. Type your message here, then watch it show up on Flickr moments later. Cool demonstration of what’s possible with an Arduino ethernet + camera setup! – send a message Related: HOW TO – Make plants talk! They’ll Twitter you when they need to be […]
Adam sent word of this interesting piece – A physical manifestation add-on for a first-person-shooter game, Riley C Harmon’s “What it is without the hand that wields it” – Custom electronics based on an Atmega8/168 micro-controller are connected to a PC running a dedicated Counter-strike Source server. Players across the internet can connect and play […]
Coming soon to the Maker store – The Pocket Piano Arduino Shield, from Critter and Guitari – This is a board for making the Arduino into a portable stand alone music synthesizer. It plugs directly into the Arduino board and provides 25 multiplexed keys (2 full octaves), 4 pots, status LED, reset switch, digital to […]
Calculating Danmark incorporates an old 7-segment calculator and an Arduino to make a physical representation of Second Life’s virtual economics. I really it when the physical and virtual worlds are combined into a piece of artwork. Calculating Danmark is a comment to how Second Life is branded on its economical possibilities, to such an extent […]
The TrampoLine is an experimental music artwork that is controlled by an Arduino. It has a very interesting control scheme; here is how the creators describe it. The structure is built around a control handle, which is suspended by 8 flexible sensors. These can be plucked to produce sounds, whilst the bowl itself can be […]
