Making the Arduino EMF detector
Aaron ALAI’s EMF detector project looked so simple and fun I had to give it a try!

Arduino robot platform
This looks like a huge robot army of fun! Four wheel drive robot with dual h-bridges controlling four motors for differential steering. ATmega168 microcontroller running at 16mhz. Arduino shield compatible headers to allow for stackable shields and protoboards. Zigbee socket for wireless bootloading or USB for wired programming. Quadrature encoders on each side for dead […]
Programming AVRs with Eclipse
MightyOhm points out this tutorial covering some basic setup for using the Eclipse programming software with AVR chips. If you’re not familiar, Eclipse is a cross-platform open-source development environment that uses plugins to expand compatibility with different coding languages. The AVR plugin can be found here and the software can even be configured to make […]
Doorbell phone
MAKE subscriber Bryan Zimmer had a cool Bakelite antique telephone and no landline, so he decided to press it into service as a wireless doorbell for his apartment. He writes of the project: This project combines a battery-operated doorbell, antique phone, Arduino, and subscriber line interface circuit (SLIC) to make a wireless doorbell. Readers are […]
Naguino: an Arduino-based LCD monitor for Nagios and Incinga
Maker Jan-Piet Mens has fashioned a rather useful network monitoring device using an Arduino Duemillanove, Arduino Ethernet Shield and S65 shield.
Make: television Vending Machine
Update: “We have some good news (finally). Brian (my co-conspirator) has had some success on writing USB drive auto-detection software. He’s working on the copy-phase stuff next, and also integrating his work into the small computer we’ll stuff inside the box. I’ve succeeded at rewiring my failed circuit board to light up the buttons, and […]
Peacock sampler instrument
From the MAKE Flickr pool Arduino co-founder David Cuartielles shares pics of his new interface for sound exploration, the Peacock – It is an instrument for live performace or personal exploration of both live and digitized sounds. You can get sound from an SD card or record it through its mic-in. The sound will be […]
