Robot arm is vital to makers among daily projects. Today, I would like to introduce 5 awesome robot arms crowdfund on kickstarter. I'm sure that you can find one suitable or attractive to you.
- Uarm uArm is a 4-axis parallel-mechanism robot arm, which is inspired by the ABB PalletPack industrial robot arm IRB460. Uarm is made of arylic or wood, and it's controlled by Arduino-compatible board. It's inexpensive, a relatively simple and basic one. You can control the arm with remote controller, wireless keyboard or ceilphone bluetooth. The wood or acrylic

June 08, 2016Printed Circuit Board (PCB) assembly is the process used in the production of wide range of electronics products. Few years back, the electronics original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) used to construct PCB assembly in their factory. However, with the coming of surface mount technology (SMT) and the introduction of cutting-edge manufacturing processes and advanced tools, PCB assembly production began to be outsourced to professional contracts electronics manufacturers. These new genre producers had the specialization in PCB assembly construction. SMT PCB assembly services have brought significant benefits for OEMs, and some of these include: * Saving extensively on the capital investments - If OEMs source to the contract electronic manufacturer service for SMT

One raspberry pi 3 board is enough to help you make a simple computer all by yourself(click here learn how-to). So, what will happen if we connect several pi boards, that is a supercomputer. Here I collect 5 raspberry pi cluster projects as your reference to learn to make a raspberry pi cluster supercomputer.

Here we collect 10 tips regarding of the most common problems while dealing with PCB Prototying orders. To make sure that you get the boards smoothly, you can have a look at the suggestions. 1.Please don't foget to generate the drill file and add it into your gerber file. 2.Please remember that the board outline must be included at least in one layer if there isn't GML/GKO/dim layer. 3.The minimum copper line width is 0.15mm for normal PCB service. 4.The minimum silkscreen width is 0.15mm and minimum height is 0.8mm. 5.The minimum panel size for V-cut is 8*8cm. 6.Please don't forget to leave a message on your order if you have some special requirements. 7.Please don't let the drill hole break the copper line. 8.Please choose

Until now, we have more than 10thousands creative, brilliant and well-educated pcb designers and electronic engineers as our esteemed members.
And our pcb service business is growing dramatically, there must be reasons why it happen. I'd like to explain this situation on our side.
Firstly, No MOQ Limitation.
At the very first beginning, you may feel like that.
But you don't have to be worried, you can absolutely place a trial order as low as five or ten pieces. It's available and welcomed.

May 11, 2016Do you know which sensor is most widely used in electronic education? Maybe you have used it, that's ultrasonic range sensor HC-SR04. Millions of HC-SR04 have been sold over the last serveral years. The HC-SR04 is so popular because it's simple, useful and very cheap. Today I will show you three projects that you can finish easily with HC-SR04.

As a engineer, it’s lucky enough to work for a company that make up with a group of maker. Because we often encounter some problems in our life, our manger allow us to put our creativity into full play due to the opened atmosphere, we can build lots of funny applications to solve the problem.
Recently, we have recruited a number of new workmates, so there have something embarrassing happened, sometimes when I went to the toilet and found that both of the two toilets are occupied, once I complain to kevin about it, then he said: If there is a kind of indicator LED like an airplane toilet lights, so we could know whether the toilet be used. Good idea! I praised him: “hey! Boy! You are really a genius! ” OK, now we have prepared everything, let think about that if you want to achieve remote control, what we need to do? The first role is the most popular platform board -ESP8266, as it happens, we have get some ESP8266 IOT Board just recently, it can achieve wireless control easily, and the most important thing is it cheap enough.
The main function of the project is when the toilet was using, the indicator will show the state of the toilets remotely, just like the toilet indicator in the plane.

Full Home Automation System with Azure and Voice Assistance
We all know how Home Automation has been integrated into our day to day lives - from controlling window panes to making a secure house free from theft. I plan on going even a step forward by integrating simple sensors that I have lying around in my house and make a secure system that not only detects any activity inside the house but also informs the person of impending fire hazards and thefts. All of this will be sensed via the Raspberry Pi 2 and and sent to the user via a mobile app implementing Microsoft Azure services.

The DIY dream
Raspberry Pi — a tiny, stripped-down $35 computer — hit the market in 2011 with the intention of helping promote basic computer science skills in schools. As of early 2015, 4.5 million of them had been sold and a second generation, the Raspberry Pi 2, has been introduced.
It has become the DIY gadget-maker's go-to device. Tinkerers, hobbyists, educators and students — basically anyone who likes to build things — have taken to the Internet with project after project utilizing the Raspberry Pi.
The little computer has controlled robots, reached the upper atmosphere in a weather balloon and become the building block for almost any gadget the mind could dream up. With all of the builds out there, it can be overwhelming, but don't worry, we've done the hard work for you. Here are 20 of the best Raspberry Pi projects on the Web.
