This is my second version of the "Start Here Robot II" and I would like to thank Frits for introducing newbies like me in the fantastic world of robotic.
At first I … Read more
I've had my Arduino for over a year and had done very little with it until recently. Mainly because I didn't have the tools or knowhow to actually build … Read more
This is my second rocket car. The framework is made from cheap and light 5 mm plywood, a paper roll, thin expoxy sheet. Things turned out much easier with a circle … Read more
Well, recently, I needed to have a bunch of AVRs programmed... A big bunch... And as I am really bored on repeated procedures I decided to make a robot to do … Read more
This is my second robot so I wanted to build one with a track drive. I

This is my first robot built from scratch and I am new to robotics. I haven't played with electronics for over 25 years and I have a … Read more
I have seen that many users on LMR use google's free sketchup design software to get a rough overview of the appearance of the complete robot. Did you know though … Read more
My first ever robot, built from parts freely available from most Electronics shops. Built around an Arduino Mega 1280, two 100:1 3V geared motors from MFA, two 3 AA … Read more
I found this site for almost a year ago and I must say it is incredible! Full of useful information and creative, helpful people!
When I saw Chris the Carpenter … Read more
Hey guys,
(Full disclosure) I work for Trossen Robotics, and this is a prototype for an upcoming product we're making. But- I think it's a pretty cool bot, so I … Read more
I've been working on a home automation project for a while - Jon Williams' Spin Zone column on Sony's IR control format (pdf) got me started on IR control. It's … Read more
Hey,
This is a project I did over the summer. I made a robotic arm that is contolled with a 1:1 controller.
The robotic arm is basically 4 standard servos and … Read more
This is an autonomous hobby robot application, that finds the candles and then blows them out. Fire-Bot has a Sharp GP2Y0A21YK0F to detect the candle and get closer … Read more
Hey guys.
Figured I'd post my very easy to use Playstation 2 controller Arduino library. It's very easy to interface an Arduino with a Playstation 2 controller, and … Read more

Hi, this is my POV dispay that I made for my Jamboree troop's gateway. Since I had no way of making it spin or wave, I had to have it just stay stationary while … Read more
Hi, this year I attended the 2010 National Scout Jamboree. My troop's gateway theme was The Blue Man Group, so we built PVC pipe instuments for people to play when … Read more
Being unable to afford an Irobot create. I built this out of the Boe-Bot chassis from parallax and other stuff I had lying around.
It's been a long time since I … Read more
Flashes LEDs to beats in music.
The concept is simple. Two FETs act as switches, and turn the LEDs ON when sufficient current flows through its base terminal.
The … Read more
This is my first robot(arduino based). It is currently incomplete.
I started by getting some standard hitech servos, and then modifying them by removing both the … Read more
Yeah, atom physics find one's way into LMR. Here is my simple expansion cloud chamber. An expansion cloud chamber works by saturating the air in a chamber with … Read more
