Want an inside look at one company’s approach to production board-test fixtures?
Sparkfun is a relatively small electronics company located in Boulder, Colorado that sells small-quantity parts and boards to the hobby, experimenter, and prototyping markets. Out of the 1300 products the company currently sells, about 300 are small, board-based products designed … Continue reading
Friday Video: Webcam + Open-source video code + Arduino Uno microcontroller board + pan/tilt servo make automated face-tracker, prove the power of an apps-centric world
Presented for your consideration: This very cool video from Sparkfun (the 21st-century version of Heathkit) shows how you can use a surprisingly small about of custom code and an open-source video software toolkit, a Webcam, an off-the-shelf Arduino Uno microcontroller … Continue reading
Friday Video: Are you smarter than an 8-year-old?
Just how complex are the ideas behind System Realization? Not so complex than an unusually talented 8-year-old Mini Maker named “Super Awesome Sylvia” doesn’t get it. Today’s video shows Sylvia explaining, assembling, and demonstrating an LOL (Lot’s ‘o LEDs) shield … Continue reading
Friday Video (Bonus): Make Magazine shows you how to use an Arduino SBC to cast Donald Trump, Sarah Palin, Kim Kardashian, and Charlie Sheen into TV oblivion
Make Magazine’s Matt Richardson has used a $25 Arduino processor board with a $25 Nootropic Design Video Experimenter mezzanine board (a “shield” in Arduino speak) to build a device aptly called “Enough Already!” that parses the closed-caption information in the … Continue reading
