![]() | Impressive Tree Climbing Robot
This DIY build uses pointed feet and moves up the tree something like an inchworm. Two, separated platforms are connected toa retractable spine that alternately grip the tree to move the device upward.
The device has an Arduino Uno for a brain... |
![]() | DIY Sonar for the Blind This is one of those simple concepts which makes you think "Why didn't I think of that?" The entire sonar unit is attached to a wearable glove and as the user sweeps their arm back and forth, the device can detect anything from one inch to 10 feet... |
![]() | Fully Autonomous Arduino Airsoft Tank
This fully autonomous airsoft tank uses an Arduino along with a Lego NXT module to control motor and detect targets. It navigates its surroundings using an ultrasonic sensor to avoid obstacles.
Fitted with a Wiimote IR sensor and interfaced... |

If you're into photography, you may be wishing for a way to activate your camera shutter from a distance. Making use of an Arduino Uno bluetooth transceiver and an Android smartphone, this DIYerallace created a fairly simple way to send signals... |
![]() | DIY LED Glass Wall
BlinkM is a smart LED that displays various shades of light effects by fading or changing color. You can buy them for about $15, but this DIYer assembled his own for about $4 to build an LED wall.
The result is this 11x11 matrix of light to an I2C... |
![]() | DIY Sound Localization Sensor with Arduino
We have covered loads of motion detection projects, but what about sound? A sound localization sensor helps you to identify the location or origin of a detected sound and find out its direction and distance. Our ears do it for us, but building an... |
| | Incredible Light Painting with an Arduino
Long exposure shots can create some pretty interesting effects. Light painting takes this idea and morphs it into innovative examples of ‘illuminated’ art. If you experiment with different light sources and treat them as ‘brushes’, the... |
![]() | Arduino Wireless Animatronic Hand Project
This DIY Robotic hand mimics the motions of a human counterpart. The controls lie in a special glove which has flex sensors wired to an Arduino which is connected to an XBee radio which wirelessly interfaces with a computer and controls the... |
