Without a monitor and keyboard it can be hard to see what is going on with a computer system. You can remote in from another computer on the network. This small device allows you to monitor and control you system without booting up any other computers. 🙂 "I have a Mini-ITX server that runs my website, runs my weather station, and acts as a home file server. This server
How can you own a LAN party? Make your own rotating display that will buzz off the fingers of those who dare come too close. 🙂 “Here my Making of the Arduino Wireless POV. Starting from an old floppy disk enclosure and a old CD-ROM box. Im using a compatible arduino board. Featuring automatic calibration with a IR sensor to detect loop start and adjust letter width (timing). Very simple
This is a nice example of a DIY Propeller Clock. Great work on the surface mount components and home made board.
When starting a project it is often easier and cheaper to start with an existing product. In this case a Radio Shack HexBug toy was the base. Some new electronics allows this robot to learn some new tricks. "The Hexbug sold by Radio Shack is a tiny robotic insect with very simple reflexive “reverse-turn upon obstacle” response. Interesting, but it quickly gets old. How about giving it a real
Rick (mrfixitrick) was working on ramping up the speed of his new Tesla Turbine Blender a bit too quickly! It sure makes for some funny carnage though. 🙂 "I was using the water-pressure powered CD turbine as a powerful blender, by using a foot-pedal valve to introduce a blast of air pressure into the water stream. (air and water pressure at the same time…;) I stomped on the foot
If you have a bunch of LEDs kicking around looking for a project to jump into have a look at this LED Chandelier! With 160 white LEDs and some time you could have a light that you can’t purchase anywhere. "List of parts. 1. Extra bright white LED’s =160 pieces 2. Motorcycle Wheel SPOKES = 4 pieces 3. Perforated Hard board of required size = 1 piece 4. Stepdown
DrumDror3000 has constructed a very elaborate DIY drum system. Using PVC pipe, wood, sponge, rubber adnd some piezo sensors he is able to create electronic drum signals that his custom electronics is able to monitor and reproduce fantastic drum sounds. "As you will see in the video i decide to use PVC pipes and parts due to that the parts are some how like Lego, but it not so
