A musical cardboard robot actor

A guide to engineer a moving and musical robot made of cardboard and a couple of arduinos.

Design a solar panel that rotates and faces towards the brightest light.  

A guide to engineer a rotation system for a solar panel with the aim of optimizing the energy production.

Static solar panels loss about half of the energy generation capacity of the day due to sun’s rotation. In this project we want to test the energy production improvement of adding a self-powered rotation system to the solar panel.

Blow the light!

This project is a very cheap and sustainable way to generate light. The project involves the design, manufacture and assembly of the windmill itself, and the connection between the windmill, the electric motor and the light bulb

Play chess with Mario Bros!

The aim of this project is to create a chess game so younger students can feel chess game interesting and funny

Protect cyclists hands!

The project Is focused on the shocks that cyclists suffer when they go downhill or simply go on a mountain route. In this case, cyclists suffer many blows to their hands, due to brambles or tree branches. This is why a low cost 3D printable protection has been designed. This protection has three different parts. All of them can be 3D printed, but in this case, only two of the pieces are printed, the third one is created with a reused material.

Can two arduinos exchange data?

Digital communication refers to the transmission of data, information, and messages through digital devices and channels. With the increasing reliance on technology and the Internet, digital communication has become a crucial aspect of modern society. In order for this to work a common framework is needed. In this laboration you will set up a basic communication protocoll between two Arduinos.

Sorting packages based on dimensions

The system discards only big packages (the sensor is set to a certain height; if a package reaches it, it is discarded)

This project is the Slovenian 2023 Thinkerlab Hackaton Winner!
