Arduino is celebrated its 15th Birthday on March 21st, 2020!  We'll be up to sending 25 Nano Boards (5 different Flavors) for project proposals that use them!Project14 is celebrating its 3rd Birthday with a NanoRama Celebration that began the day before Arduino Day!  Help us celebrate by submitting an Arduino Project as a Birthday Present!Winners Announcement will be on Geek Pride Day on May 25th 2020.  It also happens to be the anniversary of the release of the first Star Wars movie.  A New Hope was released on May 25th, 1977!

 

Project14 | The Birthday Special: A NanoRama Open Arduino Competition!

 

Submit a Blog in NanoRama or tag your post NanoRamaCH for a Chance to Win!

 

This special event celebrates the 3rd birthday of Project14 and the 15th birthday of Arduino with an Open Ended Arduino project competition that kicks off the day before Arduino Day on March 21st, 2020.   The NanoRama project competition is a follow up to  Arduino Day 2020: NanoRama: We're Giving Away Different Nano Boards for Projects that Use Them!   We also launched an Arduino Fundamentals: Part I: Quiz where you can test your knowledge (or argue over) your knowledge of Arduino.    We will also have a round ups of the last two Arduino project competitions to celebrate Arduino Day in what has turned into an annual tradition.

 

Arduino Day 2020 Round Ups:

 

 

We're also aware that this is difficult time around the world, the Covid-19 Virus has upended life as we know it.

 

Your project can also include a Fighting Germs project as suggested in Project14 | Fighting Germs: Win a Thermal Imaging Camera, a Germicidal Lamp, and a Shopping Cart with Matching Charity Donation!

 

Simply tag your post FightingGermsCH and NanoRamaCH if your Fighting Germs project uses an Arduino.

"Lots of experiments with the aim of seeing how different antennas for Ham radio can perform. Nice to see the practical approach even in winter outside!" - Community Member Judge

 

 

"Mike's project aligned exactly with what I thought this RF Project14 would involve. He blogs several times over the period, each time building and taking us further on a journey of learning - I didn't even have to stepoutside as Mike did into the cold weather!" - Community Member Judge

"Excellent experiments with a VNA, his project shows that anyone can start exploring antennas on a budget." - Community Member Judge

 

 

"This project blog taught me a great deal about RF measurements and also showed me the availability of some low-cost but effective test equipment. Fabio's series of blogs ofver the competition period were a real joy to see and read." - Community Member Judge

"Nicely documented and educational series using hobbyist accessible equipment"  - Community Member Judge

 

Arduino Mini RDF Fox by :

 

"Another nice project from Mike. Well done for creating so many interesting projects this month!" - Community Member Judge

"Nice update to a project to get it working with a user-interface." - Community Member Judge

 

"Nice build of a ham radio transceiver using arduino and TRX module, similar to a recent roadtest of myself, but now using the TRX module in stead of an old mobile radio. I'm planning to build this one myself." - Community Member Judge

 

Xmas Audiovisual Show by

"Xmas Audiovisual Show was a very impressive combination of RF and FPGA and it was provided with copious documentation. I like these 'sledgehammer to crack a nut' projects where they demonstrate the underlying science in an unusual context." - Community Member Judge

"This was a great project as it generated the RF directly from an FPGA, and that in itself is not easy, but also explained very clearly the steps involved. I really learnt a lot from the great writeup blog, photos and videos. I plan to revisit this blog to copy and try and replicate it myself." - Community Member Judge

 

"It was great to see a transmitter project implementation in FPGA. The results were very good too!" - Community Member Judge

"Xmas Audiovisual show - Really like the use of FPGA's here." - Community Member Judge
