We spend most of our waking hours on them; either chatting with people, writing code or typing out these awesome blogs. Yes, keyboards. Now here is a truly unique Keyboardio, which is a customizable keyboard with tonnes of functions. But first of all, we would like to congratulate and thank Kaika and Jesse for this beautiful prototype and invention.

Our prayers have finally been answered! A device which reminds us if we are leaving our keys or bag or phone or anything else, behind. Aptly named, Trackkies. These little tags can be attached to any of the things, which we carry every day and remind us, if we are leaving the house without them. Even if they are buried deep within the bag, they will tell you, that its there, with their correct location. How convenient!

So this DIY has actually a story to it. This guy had a small leak, for three months, and only when it became a big problem, he got it fixed. Now if he had had a humidity sensor, he would have gotten to know about it earlier and hence, fixed earlier. Let’s see, how you…

We all have some old mobiles phones randomly lying around the nice. They have zero usage and the companies are also, almost, extinct. They have no utility. So, we think. But, you can now use used mobile phone’s display for your Arduino. You could of course, buy an expensive (or even a non expensive)TFT  LCD screen but like this, you can get a TFT screen, for free.

This blog here has some insane ideas for you to ‘Pi Up Your Ride’. If you want your car to be the coolest on the block or have a Raspberry Pi lying around, then read this blog to get you started on something absolutely exciting and bizarre. This blog here, tried to get you addicted to technology, and it really got us hooked!

Office Cannon is your very own tiny ammunition packed device, which actually shoots. The last time you checked, it gets going with a USB. But now, with this DIY guide and a little bit of coding, you can control this Office Cannon with the GoPiGo using a mouse. 

Everyone loves greenery. We see a lot of people with hanging plants, but ever wondered, how do they water them? Moving staircase, a chair or someone really really tall to help them out! This invention will make life simpler for a lot of people. It is a DIY project, which lets you raise your lower…

Photo Booths are super cool. After selfies, of course, but cool, nonetheless.  So this DIY is going to let you make your own photo booth using Raspberry Pi and other components. You can use it at parties to click pictures of the guests and give them a souvenir when they are leaving. Or, for fun sleepovers with friends. Or just because, it is so simple and innovative.

There are a lot of text to speech programs available in the market, but if they are not in your budget then you can try your hands on this DIY. It lets you convert text to speech using a bash script, Kali Linux and Raspberry Pi. Like the developer you too can get fun audio…

This project shows you how to add control to a robot arm with an Arduino. This entire project is divided in four parts. You can read different stages on how to design the arm, the base and the mount, in the source link. The inventor has used CAD and 3D modelling.

Loving your pet is one thing and training them is another. But no matter how hard you try, one day they will be left unattended with your food, lying around the counter, making it an easy snatch. And then they are just going to pretend, it wasn’t them *puppy eyes*. This one if really helpful, if you have a naughty dog who needs constant telling off, from food, just like mine or you want to catch them in the act.

Smart Home power strip is an android and iDevice controllable plug outlet. You can turn on or off, the outlets individually by using your smart phone, tablet or PC. This DIY requires soldering and basic understanding of electronics. Also, since it involves high voltages of 110-220 V, it should be done with care, at owner’s risk

Bringing to you the latest, touch screen PiPhone. Like the name suggest, it’s a Raspberry Pi (with an Adafruit TFT Screen) with GSM Card in it, microphone and headphone input output. It has a DC-DC converter and a 5 V battery. It’s a standalone phone with power LEDs. And yes, you can talk on it. Real time. On a real cellular network. See the video, if you don’t believe us.

Technology, never, ceases to amaze me. Just when you think, it’s all done, some genius will come and blow your mind. Not literally!So this DIY, does, just that. Again, not literally. You can use you finger’s movement to automate your home, switch on the light or switch it off. See the video, if you don’t believe me.

NeoPixel Digital RGB LED Strip, has 144 LED per metre and is water resistant. You can program it to have really cool LED sequences. You can create an interactive LED display using an Arduino Uno, a potentiometer and an accelerometer.

So this DIY is going to enable you to stream yout steam games to the raspberry Pi.  For this to work you need to have GTX 650 GPU or above and the latest running version of GeForce Experience. If you don’t have JDK, you’ll need to install it too
