The company’s open-source platform is widely used in robotics, automation, and smart home applications. With a growing global community, Arduino’s impact continues to expand in the world of DIY electronics, education, and prototyping, making it an essential tool for electronics enthusiasts and innovators worldwide.
Garden gadgets usually prove popular on the blog, so I hope this is no exception: the Legs Day Project. The big idea is to not leave plants stuck in one place, but let them find their own sunshine!
Using Google Analytics as my thermometer, it's time again to look at what's been statistically hot on the blog this last flaming month of June 2025!
I wasn't aware of this one, though it launched in April: the self-explanatory Arduino AI Assistant (the AAA).
The durable Arduino Opta micro PLC enables industrial and building automation. It integrates with existing machines, devices, and the modular Arduino ecosystem – from sensor modules to SOMs and gateways – for a tailored solution. Opta supports OTA updates and ensures security from hardware to cloud, compliant with the X.509 Standard. It is available at TME, making it easily accessible ...
The cnc lathe rev counter prototype now works – with a bit of help from friends who can actually programme. On a signal generator, the display is rock-solid and spot-on – the crystal on the Arduino Pro Micro clone is doing its job.

The parts arrived for the RPM meter that uses an Arduino and reciprocal counting to get a three-times-a-second update rate with 1rpm resolution. Arduinos plus ready-made modules are a very qick route to custom test gear, although this time the TM1637 based display module introduced a couple of spanners: Find other CNC-related Engineer in Wonderland blogs here Firstly, the ebay ...
I have a sub-project – to measure rpm using a disc with 48 slots. This is part of the cnc lathe project, and as it is for speed control the display needs to update three to four times a second. If it could update every 1.25s, the answer would be easy: simply count input pulses for that time to get ...
We're talking an Arduino robot for material synthesis, a holographic microscope, a programmable display, a robotics book, a visit to the Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL), and much more...
It's time again to take a look at what's been hot on the blog this last month! We're talking microgravity, a sound pedal, a Raspberry Pi PoE+ Injector, a holographic microscope, and much more...
Teensy 4.0 and 4.1 Cortex-M7 development boards are to be manufactured by SparkFun Electronics. The boards are attractive because they offer a combining a powerful (600MHz dual-issue superscaler) processor processor and Arduino compatibility, and were designed and were being manufactured by PJRC in Oregon. “PJRC and SparkFun have enjoyed a relationship for several years and we are looking forward to ...
