The Arduino has long since proven itself to be one of the biggest boons to DIY heads since the soldering iron, but that doesn't mean it's not still able to impress, as amply demonstrated by this ...

This is a student project for making a simple 3D scanner using Arduino, two stepper motors and an IR sensor. It rotates the object on a turntable and moves the sensor sideways, measuring distance and ...

OpenScan has created a low-budget, high quality DIY 3D scanning system, that is fully open-source and modular and available to purchase in a variety of different packs depending on your needs from ...

The DIY 3D Scanner is a device used in an object replication. This project is build for scanning actual object details using IR sensor with a custom electronic board. It features a full DIY 3D printed ...

There are cheap LCDs available from China, and when plugged into an Arduino, these displays serve as useful interfaces or even shinier baubles for your latest project. [Michael] picked up a few of ...

Maker and 3D printing enthusiast James Bruton has created a new project in the form of a barcode scanner MIDI guitar. Using parts from old arcade machines, a little Arduino programming, and an Arduino ...

There is by no means a shortage of teams working on low-cost 3D printers. Kickstarter is absolutely overflowing with them. But, as many of those teams quickly realize, shipping hardware is hard. A ...

If you frequently use a 3D printer for your projects then you may experience issues calculating the material weight and length usage. If so, then you might be interested in this project using Arduino.

No, it isn't a combination of the popular microcontroller and Final Fantasy VII. Arduino Materia 101 is, instead, an almost foreseeable and completely expected merging of two of the hobbyist world's ...
