Remember the PIC 16F1937 Capacitance Touch Switch Keypad Project that we featured last week? Giorgos from PCB Heaven has been hard at work integrating the keypad into a larger project which is a DIY Keypad Door Entry System. A bunch of videos can be seen here and the build log with lots of pictures can [...]
Have a look at the NANO.r00t-Ed site for some interesting projects including this LM34 Temperature Sensor Weather Station Project. It uses a LM34 temperature sensor which is similar to the LM35 that I used in the PWM fan controller project except it outputs voltages that scale with Fahrenheit instead of Celsius. There is a microcontroller [...]
Making your own PCBs boards is a time consuming task. If I need to make 1 or 2 simple boards I don’t mind spending some time and building a few but if you will ever need more than that you better look at getting them made by a professional PCB manufacturer. This means that drawing [...]
Owen from Hackniac has just finished his latest hack. It is a game called TinyCopter that is built into the very small code space of a Attiny13 and uses a Nokia3310 LCD for the game screen. This tiny game reminds me of a game I used to play on the Apple II where a green [...]
The prize this week is a cable tester which will make sure your home made cables are working correctly. This contest will run for one week (June 25 - July 1, 2011). Ending time is based on central standard time. To enter, identify the item pictured above.
Please do not give the answer in the comments.

Drilling holes in PCBs is one of the most boring tasks I have ever done. Positioning the board isn’t the hard part, pulling the drill press lever up and down at a rate that won’t break the fragile tiny drill bit it the thing to watch. This PCB Hole Driller project will solve this issue [...]
If you like Twitter you need to have a look at this permanent Twitter Feed machine which allows your Tweet to go direct to a Thermal Printer.
“Thermal Tweeter is hacked together from a SparkFun thermal printer and the web platform internet development board. No computers are used to query twitter or run [...]
We have featured Labyrinth game hacks in the past but this Android Labyrinth Game is the biggest one I have ever seen. The game is controlled by a person tilting an Android tablet which directly controls the movement of the huge game board. The ball appears to be a bowling ball and by the looks [...]
Many PIC microcontrollers have built in touch pad capability. The PIC 16F1937 for example has 16 inputs for the capacitance module. These allow for a simple and inexpensive way to add buttons to your project without adding physical switches. Nice thing about these switches is that they will not fail after a certain number of [...]
If you need to make a quick schematic and you are on the go DrawSCH might be just the ticket to get the job done. One thing they need to work on is their URL, the product name is something that can be remembered but the URL is not so good.
“DrawSCH is able to create [...]
We have no idea how long the supplies will last - they may have already run out - but Makerbot Industries has dropped the price of their original CupCake CNC 3D printer kit to an amazingly low USD$455. The CupCake 3D printer is the one that started it all -...
