There are some things in electronics that Clem simply does not like.
Bright LEDs are one of them. Bright LEDs that blink are worse. Bright LEDs cycling endlessly...

Episode 732: Building a Network-Aware RGB LED Strip with Open Hardware and Python
Episode 731:...
It’s a cyberdeck. It’s a puppet. It’s also a handbag! Natasha Dzurny transforms an Arduino UNO Q into a portable media player and puppetry practice device, complete with...
What if a sensor could keep track of every rotation even when completely powered down? Pat Deegan explores the Analog Devices ADMT4000 multiturn magnetic sensor, building...
Rather than wait weeks to borrow a thermal imaging camera, Katie Dumont set out to build one from scratch. Combining a Seeed Studio MLX90640 thermal array sensor with...
Can you really build your own industrial PLC, or are commercial controllers expensive for a reason? In this project, Clem sets out to answer that question by designing...
Rather than presenting a typical maker build, Clem's examination of the Trinamic Open Source Ventilator (TOSV) focuses on a project created during a period when hospitals...
Join Miloš Rašić as he builds a differential-drive mobile robot and explores the fundamentals of mobile robotics. In this instalment of the Introduction to Robotics series...
The iconic design of the iMac G4 is a classic, and my favourite, that still holds up today. Since the one we tore down in the electronics inside didn't work, let's get...
Wesley recently moved to a new home where electric power might not always be accessible. In preparation for his move, he wanted to be ready, regardless of what mother...
Clem's latest workbench upgrade brings together a programmable power supply, precision bench multimeter, electronic load and arbitrary waveform generator to create a...
Join Milos as he builds a simple SCARA robot arm and explores the fundamentals of robotics through practical engineering. From robot arm configurations and direct and...
Clem builds a fully self-contained, privacy-first security camera around the PocketBeagle 2, combining a custom PCB, USB hub design, battery backup, and edge AI person...
In the first part of this introduction to robotics, Miloš Rašić focused on the foundations of building a robot, covering electronics, mechanics, sensors, actuators and...
Mark set out to simplify a cluttered workbench full of power adapters by designing a smart 8-channel power distribution and monitoring system built around an ESP32, giving...
Get started with robotics alongside Miloš Rašić in this practical introduction to robotics. He breaks down what makes a robot, from sensors, actuators and microcontrollers...
Clem takes a broken robot vacuum and transforms it into a modular, network-controlled platform powered by Raspberry Pi 5, tackling real-time control, power challenges...
Mark builds a desktop minion powered by an ESP32 that combines an animated eye display, temperature and humidity monitoring, audio playback, microphone input, a real...
This project explores what human vision might feel like if it worked like that of a prey animal, using a Raspberry Pi 5 and dual wide‑angle NoIR cameras to recreate side...
Milos takes his servo driven robot arm off the bench and turns it into a four wheel drive mobile platform built around the NXP FRDM RW612. The project combines an aluminium...
