- When you buy a 3D scanner, it will probably come with a turntable to spin the subject part and help you get a consistent scan from all sides. But almost all of those turntables are flimsy, shaky, and lack any fixturing provisions for parts, diminishing their utility. That’s why Chris Borge used an Arduino to […]
- That shiny new Arduino UNO R4 board that you got has quite a bit of power under the hood, thanks to its Renesas RA4M1 Cortex-M4 microcontroller. It has more than enough power to run games and one great way to take advantage of that is by building Szymon Kubica’s MicroBox handheld console. The MicroBox design […]
- When NASA or SpaceX launches a rocket, it is important for them to monitor the real-time local weather conditions to adjust parameters or even delay until conditions are more favorable. Model rocket launches are just as affected by weather — more so, in fact, because they have so much less mass. That’s why Markus Bindhammer […]

As we step into 2026, we embrace an exciting paradigm shift in technology, ready to explore the new world of AI. For the past two decades, Arduino has been a favorite of […]
- There are industrial robots, and there is Brian Brocken’s two-ton behemoth: an ABB IRB6400 capable of moving at least 150kg (330 pounds), thanks to partial hydraulic actuation. It is an absurd robot that a factory might use to put small engines in cars. So, it is an understatement to say it was overkill when Brocken […]

Recently, we talked with Dain Elman, the Instructional Coach for STEM, makerspace teacher, and School Maker Faire coordinator at Gurnee District 56 Schools, about an hour north of Chicago near(ish) the Western shore of Lake Michigan. Gurnee District 56 is […]
