As the preeminent tool for makers, Arduino is a versatile platform that covers almost every type of creative making. With its simple-to-use coding language and fun programming concepts, Arduino enables users to create modern electronics with ease. From beginner level projects like flashing LED lights to more advanced builds such as interactive robots, there are an endless number of possibilities when it comes to building projects with Arduino. Whether you are new or an experienced builder in search of fresh ideas, these posts will provide interesting Arduino tutorials and unique ideas that may spark your creativity and motivate you take on any type of maker project!

The “Breath Bra” was created as a simple excersize using a LilyPad Arduino to record its wearer’s breath over the course of a day or week and transmit the data over a Bluetooth connection to their cellphone (in this case a Nokia N95). Check out the link below for code on this build. Breath Bra
The Image Scanning Sequencer uses photocells with Arduino to generate streams of MIDI notes – It uses LDRs to measure the gray-scale of specific point of a image, and triggers midi notes from a selected threshold. When the threshold is reached the velocity will be set by the darkness at that point. the darker point […]
Today, Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories announced a new kit, the Meggy Jr RGB. Meggy is a development platform for handheld pixel games built around a 8×8 RGB LED matrix display and driven by an ATmega168 MCU. You can write your own games for it and use it through the Arduino dev environment. Nifty! A unique […]
Now we’re talking! This is great! Open Source Hardware on New Hampshire Public Radio’s “Word of Mouth”! The Italian design firm Arduino makes one of the hottest circuit boards used by gadget builders today. Since mass production began two years ago, the company has sold about 50,000 units – not bad for a small start-up […]
A big fan of stereoscopic imaging, Matti heavily modded a viewmaster – adding an Arduino board, accelerometer, bluetooth and some buttons. The result is an interactive animation viewer using color-based chromadepth technique for 3D – The Arduino sends the sensor data and the button states wirelessly via bluetooth to my computer. The information is parsed […]
These Dia de los Muertos-style tote bags with blinking skull eyes were shown at the latest Make: Japan event, the Make: Tokyo Meeting 02 held at Tama Art University. 8tote (or “Mitsubachi Tote” in Japanese) made these tote bags using the LilyPad Arduino with great success. They describe the experience quite adorably on their blog: […]
