Converting old hoverboards
So I came across some old hoverboards that where tossed out, most likely to the batteries not holding charge anymore. I got to thinking of projects for these and found out that one, there is opensource firmware for some of … Continue reading
A simple security cam robot
OK so using an ESP-32, the author can remotely control the robot (well has to be on its wifi) to roam around and see whats going on.
Interfacing RPi GPIO remotely
The author basically made a simple rest interface for the GPIO pins of an Raspberry Pi with an installer. This way you can interface it remotely.

Nice CNC Etch-a-Sketch build
A bit older article, but its a nice build where the author can draw on an etch-a-sketch.

Use RemoteXY to control a robot arduino
Basically its a wizard for creating an “app” to control an arduino via wireless. Seems pretty neat.
Cool robot build
Uses an arduino to control the servo’s for the arms. All parts are cut from plex board. https://www.instructables.com/Bidex-Robot-Dual-Arm/

Nice Robot gripper
This one uses belts to pull and grip objects.
POT to PWM controller
Using an ATiny no less, bascially you turn the POT, and a PWM comes out to control the motor speed. Good for DC based motors. It also has a nice small footprint. https://www.instructables.com/Poti-PWM-Control/
Cool robot that can swim, skate, and crawl
Came out in 2018, but still a neat robot to watch in action.
A pretty serious nerf ball turret
The motors the author uses this are ones you find in higher end RC cars. Its a clever build and seems to shoot an move pretty fast. https://www.instructables.com/Arduino-NERF-Ball-Wireless-FPV-Sentry-Turret/
