Yes you can purchase weather stations that are ready to go but where is the fun in that? The Raspberry Pi Weather Station is designed for people who like to take control of their technology.  “WeatherPi is a solar powered Raspberry Pi WiFi connected weather station designed for Makers by SwitchDoc Labs. This is a great system to build and tinker with. All of it is modifiable and all
If you have a spare Arduino that is looking for a purpose this DIY Home Automation Box might be something interesting to build. “A DIY project that is a home automation box created with what as brains but pcduino and arduino combo. Nice! This home automation box allows the maker to turn on or off the lights in a room or select color of a hacked oil diffuser (the oil
Eric William made a Gas Sensor Project that uses an Arduino to send out spoken words to a cheap transmitter that can send the current levels of the sensors direct to a radio. This is a very adaptable idea that could be used for many things, best of all the parts of the project are very affordable!  “Using the Arduino I was able to easily measure the gas levels. Using
 This Robot Bug is very elegant. It has an Arduino for a brain and PING sensors for the eyes. “Software is quite straight forward, a giant state machine, that takes input from the sensor, every now and then. halfbug has 5 different movements, one regular forward movement, one turn (left and right) and one turn hard (left and right). In addition to that halfbug has a head movement
 Steve from Rimstar.org has build an illumination system for his bike. Most of us would use a battery and a light right? Well Steve is using the bike power to generate thousands of volts and spark gap to warn people that a bike is coming. It has the added benefit of keeping people from wandering too close to the front of the bike! “Want to make your bike
This Capacitive Touch LED Table by laura.wagoner.9 uses an arduino to drive a neo pixel strip and uses the capacitive touch library to allow the aluminum trim to become a mode switch. The code is available to you can build your own if you like. She cut a hole in the top of an old table and mounted the electronics under glass. Looks great and the effects are nice.
 xrunner had an old Heath power supply. He changed out the original capacitors to some larger Nichicon units. That would be been enough but the addition of some inexpensive digital displays will make this unit look a bit more modern. Nice inexpensive upgrade but it will ensure this power supply will be usable for many years to come. Via: EEVBlog Forum
