On a typical microcontroller project we may only have access to a relatively tiny screen. Information display can be a challenge, but it’s one that may be made easier by [0xPIT]’s ESPar…

When a task is difficult, or you’re going through something challenging, a little encouragement can be just what you need. If, however, there’s no one else around, YouTuber JBV Creative has come up with what could be the next best thing.



His aptly named…

I am obsessed with creating the quickest soldering station ever. If a sports car can go from 0 to 60 in less than 3 seconds, I want my soldering iron to go from 25*C to 400 in 2 seconds. Between picking it up from the stand and touching its tip to the PCB…

This project is about a shortwave trasmitter from 3 MHz to 30 MHz. It uses the SI5351 oscillator from Silicon Labs controlled by Arduino.

dRehmFlight VTOL is a simple, bare-bones flight controller intended for all types of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicles from simple multirotors to more complex transitioning vehicles. dRehmFlight was created with those of us in mind who may not…

CO2 Display: As its name suggests, the CO2 Display project is a small CO2 gas sensor to be plugged into USB to easily track indoor and outdoor pollution. The CO2 level is displayed live, but it is possible with the small application provided in the documentation…

Brainwaves Bend a Fork: In the 1970’s, a psychic named Uri Geller introduced spoon-bending using his mental powers and became famous for it. Well, I don’t claim to be a psychic, but I thought it would be fun to be able to bend a spoon or fork using my brainwaves…

DIY Current Sensor - 2.0: Hello there! I hope you all are fine and in good health. This instructable is about making your own current sensor that is compatible with Arduino and most other widely popular microcontrollers. This project features a compact design…

Arduino Powered Painting Robot: Have you ever wondered if a robot could make mesmerizing paintings and art? In this project I attempt to make that a reality with an Arduino Powered Painting Robot. The objective is for the robot to be able to make paintings…

Custom Wireless Keyboard! (Arduino): In this project we are going to be making something super useful! It is a wireless keyboard that you can connect to your PC and assign each button any shortcut or key sequence you want! I have made it in a way where you…

Although smartphone users have had the ability to quickly translate spoken words into nearly any modern language for years now, this feat has been quite tough to accomplish on small, memory-constrained microcontrollers. In response to this challenge, Hackster.io…

Robotic Paper Octopus (with Micro:bit): Make a grumpy paper octopus that retracts its tentacles in reaction to loud noises!

DIY REFLOW OVEN : In this Instructable I want to show you how you can build your own SMD Reflow Oven for under 60€.
For a few month now, I decided to getting deeper in electronics und PCB-Design. However many SMD components you can buy are so tiny that they…

3 Ways to Make Cardboard PinBall Sensors:
Making your own PinBall game - or any game for that matter - can be more fun than the game itself!
For my DIY Pinball Machine, I thought making switches to sense a metal pinball would be easy - I would simply have…
