Pipelines are integral to our modern way of life, as they enable the fast transportation of water and energy between central providers and the eventual consumers of that resource. However, the presence of cracks from mechanical or corrosive stress can lead to leaks, and thus waste of product or even potentially dangerous situations. Although methods The post Enabling automated pipeline maintenance with edge AI appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Many types of medications (such as anti-depressants like SSRIs) can have a very negative effect if they aren’t taken on a regular basis. Even taking them a few hours late can harm a person’s mood and cause physical discomfort. But remembering to take pills at the proper time can be tricky — even setting an The post This robotic dispenser will tell you if you forget to take your pills appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Many people find the subjectivity of art to be frustrating, but that subjectivity is what makes art interesting. Banksy’s self-shredding art piece is a great example of this. The original painting sold at auction for $1.4 million — and then it shredded itself in front of everyone. That increased its value and the now-shredded piece, The post The Whimsy Artist is a little robot that both creates and destroys art appeared first on Arduino Blog.

With an array of onboard sensors, Bluetooth® Low Energy connectivity, and the ability to perform edge AI tasks thanks to its nRF52840 SoC, the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense is a great choice for a wide variety of embedded applications. Further demonstrating this point, a group of students from the Introduction to Embedded Deep Learning The post These projects from CMU incorporate the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense in clever ways appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Inspired by game nights with her family, Lorraine Underwood from element14 Presents wanted to build a project that would be both fun and playable many times over. Based on these parameters, she opted to design and construct her own take on an air hockey table that would be capable of keeping score automatically. The base of the air hockey The post DIY air hockey table uses an Arduino to keep score appeared first on Arduino Blog.

You would probably recognize a thermal printer as the thing that spits out receipts at a cash register. They offer a two key advantages: they do not require ink cartridges and they are compact. But because they print by applying heat to special paper that darkens when hot, they have low resolution and fidelity. If The post Control a thermal printer with your Arduino appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Many people (especially those with autism spectrum disorder) have difficulty communicating with others around them. That is always a challenge, but becomes particularly noticeable when one cannot convey their emotions through body language. If someone can’t show that they’re not in the mood to talk, that may lead to confusing interactions. To help people express The post The Emotion Aid is a wearable device that communicates its user’s emotions appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Spectrum analysis is a technique that allows someone to observe the amplitude of various frequency ranges within a signal. The most common use case is in the world of audio engineering, as it is useful for tuning audio output. It can, for example, show you that a particular audio signal has little amplitude in the The post DIY spectrum analyzer is an easy project for beginners appeared first on Arduino Blog.

Senior care homes may get a bad rap in popular culture, but they serve a legitimate and important purpose. As people age, their requirements for care can exceed the capability of their families. When that becomes the case, professional care may be prudent. To help those professionals care for residents, Hayden designed this system that The post This DIY system monitors all of the doors in a senior care home appeared first on Arduino Blog.

One of the most popular machines in any arcade is the Cyclone game, where a ring of LEDs illuminates in sequence and the player must push a button at the exact moment that a specific LED lights up. Get it just right and you can win a whole pile of tickets to spend in the The post Mini Cyclone game doesn’t require a trip to the arcade appeared first on Arduino Blog.
