[gv data=”OS-ihkq8mKI”][/gv] Here’s some cool info about simple DC motors that can get u jumpstarted in your upcoming DC motor projects…
I ran across some cool pages while studying about AC vs. DC motors. I was interested in taking a small DC motor, and connecting a propeller to it. I want to stick the motor on the outside of my car, and generate a small DC voltage to power my toy, ie. an iPod, or my cell phone. I need 5v for the task. The question I
Here’s a neat little project if you just signed up for an embedded computer class at your university…
Wow, this is the most geekiest coolest halloween costume I’ve seen so far…

Here’s Donivan’s entry for the MAKE & CRAFT Halloween contest, he writes – “This is my MeKeVoRkA costume I made a few years ago. The chest plate is using an EL sequencer that has been modified to use a larger inverter. Unfortunately the photos don’t show all the strands lit at once. There is a Basic Stamp microcontroller tha
Here’s a cool little capacitance meter made with PIC16F873A controller, schematic and source also open to public.
Here’s how to make a DIY capacitance meter (it measures capacitors) E=MNC writes – “Finally, I managed to persuade myself to make a really powerful capacitance meter. This is an autoranged version, which means one does not need to adjust the range settings. Furthermore, the measuring range is quite large, from 5pF all the way to 2600uF. It is all taken ca
Here’s a little cute robot right in time for halloween! 🙂
Oh my! MAKE FLickr photo pool member Oskay made robotic pumpkin Dalek – “We Evil Mad Scientists like Halloween. A lot. You might have already seen our old-school Cylon Jack-o-lantern. Here is another halloween electronics project, hopefully in time for you to make your own: It’s a radio-controlled robotic Dalek that can move around and turn its head. Oh, and did I mention that it’s a pumpkin?”

My girlfriend asked me she wanted a cool halloween basket for her house on halloween, so I made her a halloween backet with some parts that I had lying around.
I figured I could use the voice module that I bought at Radio Shack for like 10 bucks a coupl
Here’s a cool DIY on making your own piezo gyro for sensing movement among other things…
Here’s a great way to recycle your old harddrive, looks like a technological art, I like it! 🙂
Cool looking bipedal robot you can get started,
Our pals at ROBOT magazine have a -great- review and photos of this new/low-cost bi-ped robot, the BRAT – “This pictorial shows the assembly of Lynxmotion’s, www.lynxmotion.com, new BRAT, an entry level bipedal robot that is a milestone robot. With a starting price of less than $300, BRAT offers an affordable yet sophisticated entry into the humanoid robotics field. Use Lynxmotion’s powerful sequencing software and you wil
Okay, I’ve been hearing about this license plate spray for over a year now but it seems it does work…
Here’s a video about it:
