3D Printed Magnetic Levitation!: 4 Steps (with Pictures) | #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #STEM #LEARNingByDoing  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

I'm thrilled to unveil my new 3D printed Levitation device! How crazy is that? It's possible and actually not too difficult to make. I really had a lot of fun with this project and I am so happy with how it turned out. I hope you enjoy it! Stay tuned for more fun and random projects!

I put a lot of work into the video. It should explain everything so check it out too and thanks for watching!

Pull Up Your Pins: How to Size Pull-up Resistors (a bit necessary #Theory!) | #Arduino #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #Electronics

Pull Up Your Pins: How to Size Pull-up Resistors (a bit necessary #Theory!) | #Arduino #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces #Electronics | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

One of the first lessons many people learn when starting off learning practical, hands-on electronics is the need for pull-up resistors. Whether to prevent floating I/O pins on a microcontroller or interfacing two circuits via an open-drain design; pull-up resistors are an often necessary but rarely appreciated component. So why do we use pull-up resistors, can’t we just connect a wire to the Vcc supply of our device? What size resistor should you use?

Stepper Motors with Arduino | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces

Stepper Motors with Arduino | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Learn how to control bipolar and unipolar stepper motors with an Arduino using drivers like ULN2003, L298N and A4988. In this article I’ll show you all you need to know to get started with stepper motors.

Introduction
Stepper Motors are used in a wide variety of devices ranging from 3D printers and CNC machines to DVD drives, heating ducts and even analog clocks. Yet despite their popularity many experimenters shy away from using stepper motors as they seem to require complex hookups and code.

In this article I hope to dispel that myth by showing you just how easy it is to use a stepper motor with an Arduino. So follow along, I promise to take you through all of this “complex” stepper theory one step at a time!

control Electrical Devices From user web browser using esp8266 Nodemcu | Internet Of Things | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Hi, in this tutorial we will see how to control electrical devices like fan, light, etc., to turn on and off using esp8266 from a web browser. if you are bored with a dedicated device controller like an app or an remote which will be available for only one particular device but using this method all the device which support web browsing will be act as a  controller for us.

Make sure all the devices are connected to the same router, this example doesn't include a port forwarding function which will not allow us to control the device from outside the home network. 

Components that you need for completing this project are very simple, you need to have an esp8266 wifi module and a relay, make sure you buying a 5v relay which very easy to use with esp chips doesn't require external supply too. we can make use of the Vin pin of the nodemcu or if you are using a generic chip, you need to supply an external 5v to the relay.

Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+ out now: $25 for cut-down Pi 3 B+ with quad-core CPU | #RaspberryPI #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces

Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+ out now: $25 for cut-down Pi 3 B+ with quad-core CPU | #RaspberryPI #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

The Raspberry Pi Foundation has announced the Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+, offering several major improvements over the current compact version of the classic Raspberry Pi 1 Model A+.

The current Model A+ was getting long in the tooth, announced in November 2014 as the successor to the original Model A. The 2014 Model 1 A+ still employed the first Raspberry Pi's single-core chipset.

The new Pi 3 A+, available today, gains the same quad-core system on chip as the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ released earlier this year. The SoC is Broadcom's BCM2837B0, which is a 1.4GHz 64-bit quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 CPU.

Despite the upgraded specs, the Pi 3 A+ will still cost $25, or $10 less than Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+, which has double the memory.

Da sich die Tabelle jedoch nicht an den UTF-8 Standard hält, können diese Zeichen nicht ohne weiteres ausgegeben werden.

Story
It's October again and I wanted to come up with a Halloween project using a Raspberry Pi. I saw a few haunted portraits scattered here and there but none of them really presented much in the way of a scare, just some simple movement.

I decided to expand on that idea and started looking for some good jump scare type videos I could use. This lead me to AtmosFx they have some really cool Unliving Portrait videos that are only $7.99 each. These were perfect for what I had in mind and allowed me to have more than one jump scare video that I could select manually or have it run each one at random.

Here is a video of the finished project.

Particle unveils toolkit to accelerate IoT adoption | #Microsoft #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces

Particle unveils toolkit to accelerate IoT adoption | #Microsoft #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

IoT-powered platform Particle has announced a collaboration with Microsoft to expand its suite of IoT development tools with the introduction of Particle Workbench, which aims to accelerate the time to market for IoT products.

The Particle Workbench will leverage Microsoft's code editor studio, Visual Studio Code, which according to Particle will offer IoT developers an "all-in-one and ready-to-use out-of-the-box experience to develop, program and debug professional-grade apps."

Particle CEO and co-founder, Zach Supalla said: "Our vision is to provide a fully integrated, seamless platform for developers to build the best IoT products possible, without the need to piece together individual costly features.

"We made the choice to work with Microsoft on the release of Particle Workbench in response to the urging of our customers who wanted access to a robust desktop development tool. Microsoft's leadership in building developer experiences and commitment to open source made them a natural choice," he added.

Building an NodeMCU ESP8266 Internet Connected Four-Relay Switch - DZone IoT | #Arduino #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces

In our case, we use NODEMCU ESP8266, but you can use any other type of ESP8266 with all pins exposed. In our program, we connect D0, D1, D2, and D3 in a circuit, which controls the relays. The relays are using 5V. ESP8266 is using 3.3V. To connect the 3.3V ESP8266 to the 5V relay module, we use one NPN transistor 2N2222.

Halloween Project with Skull, Arduino, Blinking LEDs and Scrolling Eyes


Soon is Halloween, so let us create a scary project while coding and DIY (tinkering a bit…). The tutorial is made for people who don’t have a 3D-Printer, we will use a 21 cm plastic Skull for 13€ bought on Amazon, 3 ARDUINO NANO’s and two 8 mm WHITE LEDs to realize this project. First let us have a look how the project will look to give you the right motivation to start it, check the video below, please:...

Arduino datalogger with SD card, DS3231 and DHT22 sensor

Arduino datalogger with SD card, DS3231 and DHT22 sensor | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Arduino datalogger project that logs: date, time, temperature and humidity on SD card. In this project the DS3231 chip will be used to maintain the time as well as the date and the DHT22 sensor to detect the relative humidity and the temperature. Two buttons are used to set time & date and LCD to display all data.
